REOLINK TrackFlex Floodlight WiFi 4K Dual-Lens Floodlight Camera 3000 Lumens 360 PTZ 6X Hybrid Zoom Auto-Tracking Privacy Focused

I really like Reolink offerings and this is no exception. I prefer PoE cameras, but to be able to replace a standard floodlight with one with a camera is optimal! I have it connected to the NVR for recordings and it's a nice camera when you might not be able to get network cabling ran, this fills the void. Little more expensive than I like, but so far so good!

This is a really impressive light, right from the way it is presented in the internal (Looks to be laser cut foam to protect and present well) packaging to the instructions, to all of the “extras” that make it easy to install and configure. I’ve not used any of the Reolink products in the past, nor had I even heard of the brand, but I will certainly be looking into their offerings as this one is first rate. Let me explain more… This camera is designed to be hardwired for power but utilizes Wi-Fi for connectivity and transmitting the images. This is exactly what I needed as I’m using this on a workshop that is in a rural connection. I’ve power to the exterior of my building for floodlights already, and installing this was as simple as unscrewing the old floodlight, and wiring this in. I especially appreciated that Reolink thought ahead and provided a way via USB power to bench test and configure the light before the final installation on the outside wall where I needed to be up on a ladder 15’ in the air. This feature alone allowed me to really get to know the camera and make sure it was set up as I wanted. Quickly I do need to mention that the floodlight capabilities of this unit are first rate as well. They light up the area. My only slight frustration is that I’m not sure if the flood lights can be activated by motion as I haven’t figured that out yet. It’s not the end of the world as I’m okay with the light activating based upon light level (dusk/dawn), but it might be nice to have the option of using motion instead. It seems like that should be simple since the camera triggers with motion. If Reolink reads this, I’d sure appreciate a note to let me know if this is possible. Otherwise, I’m very impressed also with the video quality, the ability to pan/zoom, tilt and the tracking capabilities of the camera are cool since I’m wanting to monitor unauthorized access to my property. This camera certainly accomplishes that for me. Oh, the resolution is good as well and the wide field of view is perfect for what I’m trying to do. The app itself is pretty darn good. Unfortunately, I’ve got several different brand cameras at the property so I’m bouncing between multiple apps, but this one is as good, or better than most. Someday I’ve got to figure out if I can incorporate all the cameras through a single pane of glass… That would be very cool. Finally, I need to mention the build quality and my impression of how solid of a unit this is. Many of the cameras I’ve bought over the years are inexpensive and feel it. While this is on the higher end of what I would spend, it certainly feels like it is worth the price. The quality is head and shoulders above what most of my other cameras are. Read more

I was looking for a camera for the end of my house at the garage entrance. I wanted something that would help me monitor when someone comes up our drive and approaches our home. I have other Reolink cameras, so this camera seemed like a natural choice. What I have loved about my other Reolink cameras is that they have been reliable, the pictures have good resolution and are clear, and they don’t require a pesky subscription, which is awesome! To be honest, I had originally wanted to install a camera where we have a flood light now, that hangs from the eve of our house. I was unable to find a camera that would work as a light, a camera, and install from my eve. Well, at least not a camera that I had any confidence in. Most cameras that I found were wall mounted cameras and I thought this one was too. I was pleasantly surprised that this camera can be hung either way. It’s just a quick and simple adjustment that allows the mount portion to be rotated to accommodate either installation. The description actually does mention the dual mounting option, I just didn’t notice it. Because my husband and I had already made a final decision to place the camera over the garage doors we proceeded to wall mount this camera with plans to add additional cameras in the future. The install itself was pretty easy and straight forward. Because we already have Reolink cameras we already had the app and simply added this camera. One thing that I hadn’t thought about is how difficult it might be to hang a camera and then connect it at that height since it’s hardwired. Luckily, Reolink thought of that and provides a USB-C port that allowed us to connect the camera and test it before actually hanging it on the side of the house. That saved a good bit of ladder climbing right there. Once we had the camera connected and set up, we just wired the light into the existing box and we were all set. So far, we have been very happy with this camera. The pictures are clear and it keeps a consistent connection to our network. We now have peace of mind that we can monitor what happens at our home even when we aren’t there. Read more

Updated review: There is no AI search functionality when the Trackflex floodlight cam is connected to the Hub Pro. I purchased both and after set up, found that there was basic search, but no AI search functionality. I reached out to Reolink Support and got the following response in return. “We regret to let you know that when the TrackFlex Floodlight WiFi is added to the Home Hub Pro, the camera will not support the AI video search as the Home Hub Pro does not support the AI video search feature.” It would’ve been nice to know this before purchase, but there is a workaround. By connecting the camera directly to the network rather than the hub, enhanced AI search functionality is retained. The caveat being the increased congestion on the network from each additional device. Despite my initial disappointment, the Reolink Support Team proved to be responsive and helpful. Although support was accomplished strictly via email, replies were generally received within a days time. After becoming more familiarized with how these cameras work, I have decided to place an additional order. Read more
