Question about security camera belongs here, right? (alien.top)

Hello,

I got WiFi security camera from China, it worked fine for few months.

Now the colors are messed up, I think they are inverted, there is no option in settings for inverting colors, I did reset the camera, but it didn't work. I did firmware update and neither did it work.

Camera model: JA-C10CS

What could have caused this?

P.S. before you ask, I did contact manufacturer and they are offering replacement, but I have to send camera back and since I ordered using freight forwarder, sending it back is more expensive than it's worth.

Did you try contacting the seller or the manufacturer?

Is this sarcasm or did you not read my post?

So why are you asking us, if even the manufacturer can't fix it? $20 camera is disposable. Nothing to think about. Replace with something better.

I was just curious what could have caused it.

Open it up. Have a look at the connections. Just remember what curiosity did to the cat.
