Security Camera
Currently the video signal is pretty crap and the wiring is probably to blame.
Potential Improvements
Run 75 Ohm coax for video signal
- We currently have a 500 ft spool of this on top of the hack shelves
- Would require purchase of (screw on?) 75 Ohm BNC ends
Run a more reliable power line
- Currently, there is ~12v running over two sets of pairs in a Cat5 cable
- If we run a dedicated 12v line with more appropriate wiring, we will also be able to use that cable for an internet connection in the future
Install a composite video amplifier at the bottom of the stairs to help with the long run
- An appropriate amplifier has been donated, but I think it would require more stable power (see above item).
Run Conduit
- This would be great to have, but it's expensive and labor intensive.
- Would this require land lord approval?

Scheduling
During mini reboot?
