eufy Security eufyCam S330 eufyCam 3 4-Cam Kit Security Camera Outdoor Wireless 4K with Integrated Solar Panel Face

I purchased a seasonal home and was unable to get the Arlo cameras left with the property working. Given it's a seasonal property draining batteries is a big concern of mine as the property sits empty for months at at time at certain times of the year. The cameras come with very good mounting instructions to take advantage of the solar panels, and using the app to position/aim the lens ensures you get it positioned properly the first time. It will also test the WIFI connection while you are at the location to ensure the signal is strong enough. I had no issues with any of the cameras in my house as far as signals go. I also am finding the solar panel charging seems to work extremely well as they've been up for two weeks and the batteries are fully charged. The base station works well and has lots of storage. I haven't purchased any additional and I'm not sure I need it. The app is good and has handy features like being able to set the notification settings for Home, Away, schedule, etc. There are proximity features as well to arm/disarm but I haven't played with them. My only comment (and it's a small one) is I find the camera in my courtyard catches motion but the subject is almost out of range before the video starts recording. I think that's probably more about the positioning of the camera than the device itself so I may play with it. Now thinking about installing a front door digital lock/camera and smart locks for my other doors. Overall I'm very pleased with the technology and the ease of installation/use. Would highly recommend based on the two weeks I've had it. Read more

After six months of using this surveillance system, I can confidently share my experience, and I must say, it has exceeded my expectations. My initial motivation for an upgrade stemmed from the outdated, cumbersome head end of my old hardwired camera system under the front porch. The struggle was real, especially with the lack of support for newer Windows OS. My expectations for the porch camera were initially low due to its lack of direct sunlight. To my surprise, the built-in solar panel proved to be a game-changer, keeping the camera consistently charged with ambient sunlight. Despite the limited sunlight, it only triggers 1 to 2 alerts a week, showcasing impressive efficiency. Contrastingly, the garage camera, basking in direct sunlight, handles 10 to 20 alerts daily. Even as fall reduces daylight, it maintains a solid 70% charge. Considering my home's 12-inch thick insulated concrete walls, the impeccable signal strength from the home unit inside the kitchen pantry is noteworthy. The garage camera, facing 2 interior walls, 1 exterior wall, and the garage door, experiences no signal issues. The AI recognition feature is commendable, excelling at detecting individuals from various angles, not just head-on views. Night vision performs well, falling between good and spectacular, with room for improvement in IR light coverage. While the camera's IR lights are effective within a close range, additional IR repeaters can enhance night vision for broader coverage. The daytime picture quality is truly spectacular, and the well-crafted app enhances the overall user experience. Setup is a breeze, and the app's speed, even on mobile networks, is praiseworthy. Motion detection sensitivity can be adjusted, a handy feature for my garage camera dealing with wind-induced false alerts. The ability to draw a detection zone is a great feature, although adjusting points on the phone's outer edges can be cumbersome. A PC interaction option would be beneficial for certain tasks, as some actions are more convenient with a mouse. A notable feature request would be a scheduler to define "do not disturb" periods, especially during high-traffic times when unnecessary alerts are a hindrance. Lastly, the camera mounts require a firm tightening to prevent movement over time. Despite this, I highly recommend this system and plan on purchasing more units. Read more

UPDATE: We had problems with one camera within 30 days. We reached out to product support and they said they would send us a replacement camera. 5 months later, STILL NO REPLACEMENT CAMERA. They even had us send the broken one back, which they received in July. All we get is the run around. We escalated it. Still nothing. It’s mid October now. They said they are having challenges shipping one camera yet they sell a whole set online. I can even buy one camera from their store directly without issues! This is ridiculous.
