The laser light blinded the camera totally when he was able to aim correctly.(he's approximately 55 feet away on ladder). I took it away from window, put a dummy camera there, had the tapo watching it, and he did the same thing the next night...about 10 minutes again. The tapo showed a violet blue colored laser light. Later he realized it was a dummy, and started looking all over the backyard for the tapo with the laser (which the tapo recorded...I had it hidden and safe from light).  I am just worried about the sensor degrading from the first attack.

Yes, I had everything turned off. It looked like the camera was off. He aimed at it anyways. He was able to totally blind the camera at approximately 55 feet away. After moving the tapo and hiding it,  the camera recorded a violet blue colored laser light hitting the window at a dummy camera. I once looked over the wall (he was dowsing another camera with water for minutes at 2 am) and saw a perfectly round, small violet blue light in the complete darkness of his backyard...I had never seen such a light before. I guess it was aimed at me.

Can't post external links here but you can Google: "lasers Impact on Surveilance Cameras Tested".

Have you considered filing for a restraining order? Are the cameras pointed ar his property? You might want to check the laws in your state. However, if you are successful, there is often a clause permitting you to put him under surveillance, and preventing him from putting you under surveillance. . In my experience if you don't nip this kind of behavior in the bud it can be expected to escalate.He's trying to damage your personal property.

The camera's not pointing at his property. It clearly points down into my small backyard. His girlfriend's house has an incredibly large backyard that borders 8 small backyards. I don't know why the block was drawn that way in the 1950s. Here goes- He (and she) has bothered every one. Vandalizing front and back gardens (because they don't approve), peeping, has had a lawyer threaten him (provoking dogs to bark then complaining about dogs barking), a next door neighbor pushing the gf to the ground because they were/are driving him crazy from their spying, another neighbor saying- I might mistake you for a burglar and shoot you so don't look over my wall, a mother said he kept watching her little girls in the pool...she moved. The police don't care. There are numerous complaints filed. (Los Angeles). They think they own the block and if they don't like something, they will try to destroy it. A neighbor put sheds in her backyard and they called in a surveyor...because they didn't like how it looked from their yard. They have a lot of money, don't work and I guess they obsess over everything else except their own mental issues of megalomania. That is the tip of the pile of poo.

I'm just trying to protect my little abode...there have been break ins.

In the end...I suppose it will be a shock when  they realize they can't take their backyard with them in their Big Final Move.

Thank you for your concern and suggestions!!!
