The major distinguishing factors that the Reolink RLC-811A has over the Reolink RLC-810A are that it is built with spotlights and has 5x zooming capability. The Reolink RLC-810A does not have spotlights or zoom. Why should you not consider the Reolink RLC-811A?

In my academic pursuits, I earned a BSc in Information Systems Design from UCLAN, before advancing my learning with a Master’s Degree in Computing. This advanced study also included Cisco CCNA accreditation, further demonstrating my commitment to understanding and staying ahead of the technology curve.appfs partition ( appfs.ubifs.bin file) ― contains the set of application-specific files, size 0x1500000 starting at 0x2700000. In the interests of transparency, all applications are publicly visible and anyone can view the test results ― including the internal pictures of the product. Since I do not have a Reolink product, I preferred to consult and inspect the images already available in the FCC archive. FCCID allows one to explore all applications received by the FCC. Just type in Reolink to access the certifications from Reolink Innovation Limited, the company that owns the hardware produced. Then, if you want to reduce the CPU load, you can use /h264Preview_01_sub or /h265Preview_01_sub under the sub-stream settings which will be used for the motion alerts. Before continuing with the more serious analysis using Binwalk, it is useful to explain the flattened device tree file format, which allows the operating system to know in advance the hardware devices that are present within the embedded system. What interests me most about this camera is person & vehicle detection, because I get so many useless “motion detected” alerts with my other cameras, I have stopped to care.

Hardware: Please include better screws. Carefully installing this I already stripped out one of the Phillips head screws, even with pre-drilling the hole. For this review, I used some microSD cards as well as Blue Iris. I have not used a Reolink NVR so can’t comment on what the experience with that is like. Partition fdt_restore ― contains a copy of the flattened device tree to be used in case of unexpected failure, loaded into the 0x80000 memory area of size 0x40000. The RLC 810A (4.0 mm) has a lens specification of f-4.0 mm, and F-2.0, while its field of view is 87° to the horizontal, 47° to the vertical, and a 30-meter night vision distance. The camera may work in extremely cold conditions as low as -25°C as it will produce heat when powered on. You may power on the camera indoors for a few minutes before installing it outdoors.I like that you have the ability to toggle on or off the recording functions as well as the IR lights etc. As someone on facebook mentioned to me, they’re into Astrophotography (as am I) so to be able to turn off the IR lights was key. I also like that the motion trigger is accessible. It means that I can access that in Home-Assistant or Node-red and use that sensor to trigger other things. Firmware: The auto-upgrade is a nice feature that'll automatically pull the latest firmware from the cloud.
