We have multiple E40 cameras that communicate with a HomeBase. We added a hard drive to the base to expand the number of videos that can be stored. The system alerts us when it detects motion, same as the monthly-fee models offered by others, and offers real-time viewing/communication and archived videos. Not having a monthly fee attached is what attracted us to the Eufy ecosystem. The camera itself has high-quality video in all light conditions and appears to be well made. We are very happy with the system.
Works as well as the older model it replaced, but when viewing, it shows as 2K, not the 4K the previous one was, and It only goes to 2X zoom, the previous was 4X. Should have checked the specs first
Great camera overall I bought it for the HomeKit feature but the battery life when this feature is turned on doesn’t get justified. When I received it & installed it I charged it full, linked it to my HomeKit and it died within the same day. The next day I charged it again and adjusted the settings to consume less power and the battery drained again. So I turned off the HomeKit feature entirely and only use it with the eufy app. Every other aspect that this camera offers is great for your buck just not the HomeKit feature.
