I fucking love that show. Think it's the only show now I still have interest in on Netflix.

And in the vids I have seen there has been no issue with lag, I'm guessing due to how far away it picks up motion that you still get the person. I mean they have one set-up half way up the driveway and it captures me just fine (our houses are right next to each other so I walk by this camera everyday).


They have had it maybe 2-3 months so not super long but no issues with the batteries yet. Though if it's a known issue ymmv of course.

Thanks for the update.

If you have the time when visiting them, can you experiment with it since the Arlo series are known for that 3 second delay from when something enters the frame to it starting to record? I know the Pro 2 can get that down to 1 second, but the camera would then have to be hard wired (which defeats the purpose of going with the Arlo series).

But honestly though, there's some surprisingly good series out there that my wife and I just started watching just out of curiosity and ended up getting hooked. Latest is "The Crown", Claire Foy is creepily good.

Ah, if I were to set it up as mood lighting, I would definitely not use the LED boards I did. LOL. Although mood lighting isn't my cup of tea, so I would never put one in any of my cars. If a future car I get has them, I'd rewire them to turn on with the doors open only.

I only liked the first season. I started watching the second season when it came out, and lost interest during the first episode. Although my bro is continuing to watch it after he found out about the show after I finished the first season.

Haha, I was only half kidding. My wife usually wants a "palate cleanser" show after watching gnarly stuff like black mirror, mind hunter, west world, etc. so we end up watching some kind of sitcom. We tried Kimmy on a whim since we've ran out of the regular network stuff (parks & rec, the office, 30 rock etc.) and it ended up working pretty well. Just ran out of episodes of those, so we've started using Lady Dynamite...don't know how long its gonna last since it's almost just as disturbing...

Haven't heard of Lady Dynamite, but if it's like Kimmy, I would probably lose interest in it quickly. haha

Wanted to update the interior of the Yaris a bit, so decided to get rid of the Toyota green glow of the HVAC controls and make them modern and classy with VLEDs white HVAC bulbs.




Also replaced the stock side markers bulbs (top) with VLEDs HVA 360* bulbs (bottom). Pic doesn't do them justice, especially since the VLED side had more day light shining on it compared to the stock bulb side (garage was opened).
