I got two big dogs and I know they don't do it on purpose, they do leave their marks on my SUV. Yet, not all unsightly damage is done by my dogs. I'm also guilty as I often used my truck to transport gravel, heavy equipment etc and all this cargo left its marks. It's annoying to see the scratches done by them. So, I decided to do things differently with my new truck as I want to preserve a high resell value.
The INNX liner is very large but can be
adjusted to most makes and models.
I decided to buy a cargo liner from INNX to keep my new SUV looking as good as day one. The liner is quite large. Setting it up was a child's play. It has Velcro patches so it won't slide and has adjustable buckles that can be released instantly.
A nice detail is the bag attached to the liner.
My dogs love to rest on my new INNX liner. And I am happy to see it keeps its place. I placed wood, stones, and my chainsaw on the liner as well. I took a look below the liner and I did not find any sign of damage. Thus the INNX liner works and met my expectations. I am convinced the INNX liner is worth every cent I spent.
After having used this surveillance camera and leaving it running 24/7 for over a week I want to share my opinion and deliver a personal detailed overview of the installation process and review of its features and management.
The package this camera comes in is great and has enough cushion to protect its contents. There is no annoying plastic to cut in order to unbox.
Always make sure, you got everything listed here before proceeding with the installation.
In order to configure this camera, it needs to be connected once with your home router during this process.
First, I connected the Ethernet cable and the AC Power Adapter to the camera and placed the Wi-Fi antenna in its place. Then, I connected the other end of the Ethernet cable to my router and plugged in the AC adapter to an outlet.
Next thing I did is downloading and downloading the iSmartViewPro app. There is an Android and iTunes version. I use both versions and there is practically no difference of interface between them. I scanned the QR code provided in the guide to install the app.
It looks like the app uses peer-to-peer technology and thus you shouldn’t have to worry about adjusting your firewall. I had no issues with my firewall.
The first time, I simply tapped on “Add Camera”. There are two options to add a camera, either through scanning a QR code or through LAN search. I tried both. By the way, the QR code for adding the camera is on its body. In my opinion, the LAN search is simpler and faster. You don’t have to open a scanner app and wait until the QR code gets recognized.
Anyway, once the app found your camera, you only need to enter the default username “admin” and default password “123456”, then tap on “Done” in the upper right corner. The configuration was hasslefree for me and was much less complicated than with my Foscam.
In the app you should now see a thumbnail and see a live stream if you tap on it. I can switch there between 3 different resolutions: 240p, 480p and high-definition 720p. I left it at 720p for best image quality.
I recommend to connect your camera to your Wi-Fi so you don’t have to leave the camera connected to an Ethernet cable. For this, you have to tap on the triangular arrow next to the camera’s thumbnail in the app. This will take you to the “Edit Camera” screen”. Tap on “Advanced Settings” and there you should find an entry for Wi-Fi Settings. The process to connect your camera to Wi-Fi is pretty straightforward. You should see your SSID (if it’s not hidden) and select it, enter your password, and you’re done.
From this point on, you can disconnect your camera from the Ethernet cable and its power supply. It’s ready to be installed anywhere you like. The only limits are the Wi-Fi signal and the length of your extension cord for power supply. I removed the Wi-Fi antenna before I started to install it on my patio wall. The viewing angle can be adjusted vertically.
Important note here: If you plan to install the camera outdoors in an exposed, make sure you seal the power connection properly like coaxial cables for satellite dishes. I recommend Scotch 23 Electrical Tape. It never failed me. I wonder why outdoor cameras don’t include anything to seal the power and other other connections.
I highly recommend to change the default username and password, I also would check the time setting. Mine had the wrong time zone. Also, I enabled email and FTP uploads when motion is detected. All these settings can be found under “Advanced Settings”.
The camera can also be controlled by your desktop PC. I had to find out its local network IP address through the DHCP table of my router. I was only able to view the camera’s stream through Internet Explorer. However, the settings can be changed on any browser and operating systems. If you navigate the first time to the camera’s local IP, you will be asked to install a plugin and ActiveX. I did that but then uninstalled that software again. I prefer using my mobile devices to control my camera. It’s easier and the iSmartViewPro app’s interface looks much better than the one provided on my desktop PC.
So far, my camera survived several thunderstorms and heavy downpours. The night vision is astonishingly clear. I didn’t expect that in that low price range. It’s truly a set it and forget it device when it comes to the software configuration. It’s user-friendly and the email notifications works flawlessly. Just remember to seal the power connection if needed.
In all, the camera is perfect for me and anybody else who doesn’t want to mess with an expensive surveillance system but still wants high image quality and instant motion alerts. Everything can be done with a mobile app and that’s one of the things I like most about this outdoor camera. This camera is available here: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01JRS6AHC
