iCam Support / NightVision IR produces Glare on Window - Any Solutions for Monitoring Outside?
« on: July 29, 2010, 08:44:35 AM »
I want to monitor what is happening outside my house so I mounted my SkyIPCam500W on the inside just in front of my double pane glass window.
During the day it works great, but at night all the IR gets relected off the glass back in to the lens.
I am sure others are using this camera, how have you gotten around this issue?
Do I create some sort of snoot just for the lens up to the window so it won't reflect back? I am guessing that will not work since I have two panes of glass.
If I mount it outside inside of an enclosure will it survive more than a year in that environment?
