it sounds like i have a hot cam in there. and the power is so low that it feels like i dont have a cam in at all.
let me put it this way.....my neighbor (who know a very small amount) didnt even notice a difference. with a cam this big and 14* of overlap....the guy 2 blocks over should notice a difference.

IMO the vendor should send the cam to have it cam doctored, unless they have the means. If it's wrong, they need to send it back to comp or whoever they used and get a new one for you. This time it should go straight to the vendor so they can have it checked before it comes to you.

No way the cam you put in is ground as they sold it too you. As others have already said you, and everyone else, would KNOW its a moderate size cam. And trust me the power would be there to confirm that size cam.
