Now 2 more camera are left to order

InSight S655I Tp-Link InSight S655I 1.4mm Fish Eye Camera - FGTECH STORE

and VIGI C240I or VIGI C440-W

I require full colour . VIGI C440-W is full colour and WIFI but no POE

POE its low quality till 4k then straight away 10k ….Buy IP Cameras For Home And Business Security In India - FGTECH

Minimum full colour is at 5k . And for information of all nothing of Tp-link will be available soon as STQC is not cleared . They will never give source code

All the above purchases were done from fgtech

Cameras in the setup need to be shifted from original plan and 1 more to be added . Total is 6 now . I forgot to check IP ratings

Original Plan

Facing Road - VIGI C540V IP66 with LED lights

Parking - and VIGI C330I (IP67)

Inside house - InSight S655I (IP67) To buy

Patio - VIGI C240I (IP67)

Main Terrace - VIGI C440-W (Not Waterproof ) So this cant be on terrace . WIFI but POE with LED

Second terrace - VIGI C240I (IP67) To buy , small place with overhead watertank and a room for installing all network equipment . Dont want fibre guys drilling any holes below

Amended Plan

Facing Road - VIGI C540V IP66 with LED lights

Parking - Plan to put VIGI C240I (IP67) instead of VIGI C330I (IP67) and shift VIGI C330I (IP67) in patio . VIGI C240I (IP67) is better quality so should be covering main gate and parking

Inside house - Not to buy InSight S655I and put VIGI C440-W (Not Waterproof ) WIFI, no POE with LED

Patio -VIGI C330I (IP67) Small place so this should do fine

Main terrace - VIGI C340-W 4MP (IP66, WIFI , full colour NO POE ) TO BUY

Second terrace - VIGI C330I (IP67) TO BUY

Any recommendation on the plan ?

How much does it cost?

24

Above which has come , 34k

25

Looks like I’ll be ordering soon. TPlink going OOS at most places.

@kuduku why did you get one of VIGI C540V? Why this over single lens models?

26

Larger area coverage with LED included and cheapest decent full colour POE camera which can capture good details

27

When I had purchased POE injector fgtech sent me Tp-link CCTV booklet . When i bought 50k worth CCTV items i didnt receive anything

Hers the booklet , might be helpful for others

Finalised Plan . Everything purchased from fgtech

Switch - TL-SG1218MPE 18-Port Gigabit switch

NVR - VIGI NVR1008H 8 Channel NVR , have put a WD 4TB survelliance used

Facing Road - VIGI C540V IP66 with LED lights

Parking - VIGI C240I (IP67)

Inside house - VIGI C440-W (Not Waterproof , WIFI, no POE with LED)

Patio -VIGI C330I (IP67)

Main terrace - VIGI C540-W 4G (IP66, 4G , full colour No POE with LED)

Second terrace - VIGI C330I (IP67)

Didnt want 4G camea but thats cheapest 4MP camera at 5300/. Next is 3xZoom dual focal C540V at 7800/

Inside house had to divert from original plan of InSight S655I Fish Eye Camera . Will see later if C440-W looks too bad . Its WIFI and non POE so can place /hide anywhere …

Crap. Half of these cameras are out of stock. Am I too late?

You got some discount?

30

No , 34k order had some 500/ off site wide coupon , 2nd order of 8k didnt have anything . They have a permanent offer of 2% off if paid by Bank tranfer

31

Do you know any other legit website for ordering ipcameras?

32

Many are selling but fgtech is little cheaper , DM them over WA and check the stock for your selected item

Can these cameras support multiple streams?

Like 1 for nvr and 1 ONVIF based for any other recording system or something like frigate?

34

No Idea, above me, that’s why took a ready made system

35

Anyone buying TPlink stuff, highly suggest checking offline rates. Got an NVR for friend at great price.

36

Smaller cities it’s a bigger pain to find wholesaler.. All retail shops quote you MRP

I called distributors in Delhi & Chandigarh given in Tp-link page. All were giving same rate as fgtech. 100/ more on some or 200/ less in some , no major change but didn’t have all the stock

For reference

Switch was exactly same

C540W was 500/ expensive at dealer

C220I was 200/ cheaper

And so on….

They all had C540W & C330I , nothing else

37

How do I find offline shops?

38

I called up people from this , NCR , Chandigarh

39

I just went to the shop i go to. He gives cost plus pricing. The distributor I’m assuming gives very good pricing. And he adds 10% and sells i assume. Price was 10% cheaper than fgtech. Took 20mims to send to the shop.

Always contact shops you go to. Ask few items first to get idea.
