I have seen select cameras from Honeywell and others use Polycarbonate Housing. The majority however still use steel/aluminum. My questions:
- What are the benefits and drawbacks of using Polycarbonate Housing?
- Is there a specific type of Polycarbonate material that is preffered over another for camera housing use
- Is there a type of certification for the Polycarbonate material so you know that you are getting in fact real polycarbonate versus cheaper ABS
- Any idea on rough price differences between ABS, Polycarbonate, Metal and Aluminum for a typical outdoor dome camera
Thanks in advance!
