Before you believe a bad review about us

We would like to respond openly to every negative review about us. Many are posted anonymously, so we cannot reach those customers directly. This open letter is our reply, and we would be grateful if you took a moment to read it.

But here is what a one-star review will never tell you:

  • We import from 70+ official distributors. That is why you pay far less than local retail — and why delivery takes longer. We publish the date before you pay, never after.
  • You can pay only when your goods land in Johannesburg. Pay on Arrival, no full payment up front. Ask yourself what scammer offers that.
  • Nobody has ever lost money with us. You get the product, or you get a refund. There is no third option, and there never has been.
  • We are part of the ITwork group — ten years trading in Europe, nine stores, thousands of positive reviews.
  • Johannesburg and Cape Town stores open this year — real shelves, real stock, walk in and buy the same day.

We are not satisfied with our review scores, and we are not going to fix them by hiding anything. We are fixing them by being faster, clearer and easier to reach than any reason to complain.

Read the full letter — photos and video of real shipments, and a straight answer to every accusation.

Problem with an order right now? Write to [email protected], [email protected] or [email protected] — answered the same business day. The letter also lists our group and store owners' contacts.

The Hikvision DS-2CV2041G2-IDW(2.8MM)(W) Indoor is an IP security camera designed for indoor surveillance. It captures video at 2560 x 1440 resolution using a CMOS sensor and supports both wired Ethernet and Wi‑Fi connections. The camera offers a 97° horizontal and 53° vertical viewing angle with a 360° rotation capability, and its detection/observation/recognition ranges are approximately 63 m, 25 m, and 12 m respectively. The unit is white, compact (about 0.345 kg), and supports ceiling or wall mounting for flexible installation.

Advantages

The camera delivers high-resolution imaging that helps produce clear evidence and detailed monitoring while optimizing storage and bandwidth. Dual connectivity (Ethernet and Wi‑Fi) provides flexible installation options. Motion detection is supported to enable event-driven recording. The design supports both ceiling and wall mounting and includes wide viewing angles and 360° rotation to cover various indoor layouts.

Suitable for

  • Office and reception areas
  • Retail stores and shop floors
  • Hallways and corridors
  • Small warehouses and storerooms

Key specifications

  • Model: DS-2CV2041G2-IDW(2.8MM)(W)
  • Resolution: 2560 × 1440 pixels
  • Sensor: CMOS
  • Frame rate: 30 fps
  • Viewing angle: 97° (H) × 53° (V); 360° rotation
  • Detection / Observation / Recognition: up to 63 m / 25 m / 12 m
  • Connectivity: Wired (Ethernet) & Wireless (Wi‑Fi)
  • Mounting: Ceiling or wall
  • Placement: Indoor
  • Colour: White
  • Weight: 0.345 kg

How to use

Mount the camera on a ceiling or wall using appropriate hardware. Connect to power and choose either Ethernet cable or Wi‑Fi for network access. Use the Hikvision setup application or a compatible NVR/software to configure resolution, frame rate, motion detection zones and storage. Adjust the camera rotation and angle so the target area is within the 97° × 53° field of view. Test detection and recording settings to confirm coverage and notification behavior.

Recommendations

For optimal image quality and reliable detection, install the camera at a stable mounting point 2–4 metres above the floor, avoid direct backlighting, and configure motion detection sensitivity to match the monitored environment. Use wired Ethernet for continuous high-bandwidth recording or Wi‑Fi for flexible placement where cabling is impractical.
