NCS v2 24/7

Is it ok to run the NCS v2 24/7? will this burn it too fast?
for example a security camera can you leave it there running all day/week/month/year with no concerns?
Or will this reduce the life spam of the device to pretty short?

Hi, Daniel,

The NCS2 device is a developer kit type of device and as such isn’t validated for 24/7 usage in a production environment. Although few of the customers tested with similar scenario and didn't hear about issue, I still recommend you to do the burning test with the production level products from out Vision Accelerator Products partners, please refer to the link below for the available providers.

Thanks for the answer but i want to built my own, rather than purchase one.
I will do motion detection and use the NCS when i got movement so it can rest most of the time.

I was surprised :) If it's not a production device, which one is a production device then?

Thanks for answer in advance
