I couldn't find any posts/articles here regarding the outdoor PIRs, so I'm starting this discussion.
What do you use to trip the cameras? I don't want to rely on a pixel color change or CCTV analytics, as it's still not that reliable as PIR technology. I use the Optex SIP series, which is great but very expensive, so I'm looking for a cheaper alternative. For short distances (up to 15m/50ft) I can go with Bosch OD850 or Optex HX series. But what to use for 50-150ft? I just googled and found Interlogix DL600 which is around $100. The price looks very attractive, but I was not able to find any reviews or field tests: https://static.interlogix.com/library/74941_wired_outdoor_dual_tech_pir_detector_ds.pdf
Could anyone suggest a reliable outdoor solution?
