Sniff, brings back good memories of Soi Cowboy!

According to Western Digital CEO John Coyne, it will all add up to a significantly reduced supply of hard drives into 2012. CRN reports that prices on hard drives are already rising in distribution channels and companies in the industry are watching inventory closely; some distributors may be stockpiling drives rather than selling them until the situation on the ground becomes clearer. Just how the shortage will ultimately affect consumers is also up in the air and will depend on how Western Digital and its distributors allocate existing inventory.

PC makers are taking notice, however: Apple CEO Tim Cook is on the record as expecting “an overall industry shortage of disk drives” and a Dell spokesperson said the company is “working with our hard drive suppliers to address potential impact for the remainder of the year.”

Due to the rapid daily fluctuations, we are not able to keep up with the constant changes on our web site, and any orders for products that require hard drives will be higher than posted until this problem settles down. Any order for Digital Video Recorders or Network Video Recorders, or anything requiring a hard drive will be higher than posted, and we will notify you of the price before we run your order.

It’s best to call us before you make an order to get a current price.

GVI Security recently released their Razberi Integrated Network Video Recorder with 8 PoE Ports. And while you might be yawning over yet another network video recorder, your jaw will drop when you see what it can do.

Lets start with complete plug-n-play capabilities. Power up the Razberi, and plug your cameras directly into the back of the 8 PoE ports on the back. So you don’t need any PoE switch, nor do you have to pay 3rd party license fees!

And the Razberi works with their own videoPlus cameras, which we will be adding shortly. The Razberi also works with all AXIS, ACTi, Arecont Vision, Sony, Samsung, and some Vivotek cameras.

Just install their client software on any PC, and you can pull up all your cameras. If you have multiple locations, put a Razberi in each location, and you can pull them all up at once. You can make custom views where you can pick a few cameras from each NVR, and view them at one time.

And the tour feature is really cool. Set up a new tour, and you can view any number of cameras at one time, one after another, in the same view, then embed the tour in an 8-16 camera view, and instead of showing just one camera, that particular one will switch between all the cameras in that view. It’s al drag & drop.

And, hook up one of their DVR’s, and you have a great hybrid system that will also pull up on their client software. Watch unlimited DVR’s and NVR’s at once, with unlimited cameras, though you can only view 16 at a time, though with the tour feature, you can easily multiply that to hundreds of cameras.

Find out more about the Razberi, and take advantage of very aggressive pricing until October 15. Call us at the # below for more info, or to test one out.

And the best part is the ease of use of the DVR, and that you can record up to 1,000 hours of video surveillance, and back-up anytime to removable drive or USB DVR. You can access the video from any Internet browser, or Blackberry, iPhone, or Droid phone.

So you can keep an eye on your home when you are at work, or keep an eye on your work when you are at home.

Now you can have peace of mind, knowing you are covered. You can thank me later…

If you have CCTV cameras that are working for you, you have 3 options if you need to expand:

• You can leave it alone and add more CCTV cameras, running more cable, though you can go to a video balun set up to make that easy.
• You can invest in a Hybrid DVR that will allow you to hook up analog and digital cameras.
• You can buy encoders that will convert the feed to digital, making the camera a network camera.

We will cover the Hybrid DVR in this post, and cover the encoder idea in another post. A hybrid DVR is a great way to transition into the digital world, as it’s still a fully functional DVR that you are use to, it will also let you expand with network cameras, which you can’t do with your current DVR.

So we found this great line of video surveillance cameras for INSIDE the car. These self-contained Car Vandalism Surveillance cameras are put inside everyday items found inside your car. There is also a digital video recorder that records the video for later use.

No SD cards to mess with, just plug in the USB cable and you can view your videos.

There are a few different ones to choose from; my favorite is the dice ashtray car vandalism camera. Inside an innocent looking dice ashtray lies a video camera and DVR that can record for up to 8 hours.

Dice Ashtray Car Surveillance Camera With Built in DVR

Unfortunately, there is no motion detection, however, 8 hours is a long time and you should be able to film the punk who is messing with your ride.

Also, the Clip on Car Mirror Car Surveillance Camera With Built in DVR is great for catching some idiot in a road rage situation. When you have your visor down like it’s blocking the sun, the clip-on mirror films your face. Turn it to the left, like it’s blocking the sun on the left side of your face if you are the driver, and you are filming the moron next to you.

In Southern California, I need that as there are no shortage of aggressive drivers that hog the road. If they do something stupid like pull a gun or try to hit you, you have a DVR filming their every move..

These also work great for RV’s, boats, or trucks. Find out more information on the full range of Car Surveillance Camera’s that can film any vandalism that happens to your car.

Anyone else having problems with punks messing with their vehicles?

The Wildview camera has an internal battery that will last up 3 weeks in motion detection mode if there is light movement. You can also have a 2nd battery to swap out. I always keep a 2nd battery for all my cameras, as you never know when it will die.

It has an 8 megapixel lens that produces huge pictures, in color during the day, or b/w at night. It also records video at 30fps in 320 x 240 size. What really makes this camera stand out is the infrared’s. They will light up a picture in complete darkness as the samples we post will show. They are not 95mn Infrared’s and invisible, they are red LED’s that only glow red. You if you trip the motion at night, you will see the little red lights.

It’s completely waterproof and has 16MB of internal memory, with the capability to add a SD card also. Watch the videos on your PC or a TV.

It seems the dust has finally settled from our move over from our other server and the problems with that and upgrading the cart. If you experienced any errors, it should be working now. If you still experience errors, PLEASE let us know.

So we are working on the next YouTube video, which will be the new all black and sexy DVR Spy pen, as well as a whole gaggle of photos for many of our products.

Bye for now..

The Business Portable Recorder is packaged in a retail box and is pretty much the same camera, though it has the silver clip, not the black one. The recording rate is now 20fps, and if you compare the video next to the video of the Updated Spy Pen, the 5 fps is not that much better, though when you hold the pen still, it’s nice & clear.

Business Portable Recorder 640 x 480 VGA Audio Video Pen 20 FPS

The audio is also upgraded, no more metallic noises in the back ground. Though the best part is that it works great with the PC. Windows media player has no problem with the .avi files, unlike the 3gp files that it would not open. You don’t have to download VLC Lan now to view the files.

However, for your Mac Addicts, when we plugged in our Apple, it did nothing. We can open the .avi files in Quicktime, though you can’t upload them. You have to find a PC to upload the video.

It also has a couple more accessories, namely a cool AA battery powered field charger. We have not tried it yet, though it comes with a cable to connect to the pen. It also comes with a standard camera bracket and some type of cable to turn the camera into a PC cam, though I am not sure what that means. It will allow you to record clear video as it turns it into a stand to hold it steady. Perfect for interviews or recording a class or lecture.

The SecureShot Covert Phantom Sony Cube Radio Hidden Camera With DVR uses a small Sony radio, and hidden inside is not one, but two cameras that automatically switch to low light when it gets dark. The beauty is there is no SD card slots, plugs, or lights exposed; everything is hidden behind a “secret compartment” that only you have the key for.

Many people contact us looking for a good way to watch over their child or elderly parent when they are away. Just set up this innocent working radio and point it at what you want to record.
