Title: FloodCam Camera review again
Post by: astrothug on April 10, 2009, 12:10:42 AM
HI all I wanted to give back to the forum in some way, so I have read all the reviews on this camera,(the floodcam)  negative and positive, I still went with this camera, I spent about 2 hrs hooking it up, In reality I'm sure it would be a 1/2 hr job, but I had too do some modifications to the base of the old light that was there.

all In all I'm pleased with this camera/flood cam. ;D

so the positives,
1.easy hook up.
2. great pic quality best of the 3 camera's I'm using from x10.
3. great price.

the negative.

1. motion censer seems not to be working.
2. light some times will stay on...
3.  >*<

work around to the above problem, was to hook up a ActiveEye Motion Sensor (MS16A) and use a marco to control the time the light stays on.

If I needed another flood cam I would buy another. I would give this camera a 7 out of 10...

thanks..
  David ;D

Try this link:  http://forums.x10.com/index.php?topic=17704.0  I've never owned the floodcam myself... but this could explain the "mixed" reviews.
