Battery life was not acceptable. It was at 35% within 3 weeks. The number of times it was viewed or the times the light came on was not excessive. Also the light turns off too quickly (less than 5 seconds) and can’t find a way to change the time. A solar panel was not attached.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Connection is flaky at best I wish there was a way to fully disable cloud services so I can connect to the device on my local network. Also wish there was RTSP support for the camera for an extra backup of footage.
I feel like these features are essential for any "security" camera.
They are slow to respond. I bought 2 and one is10 feet from the router through a brick wall which has a window and it drops communication frequently. The other one is farther from a router and is also slow to display but does not drop communication as often. Picture is decent when I can see it

The camera is nice but WiFi range comes up short. I had to move it around the yard to have it make a connection
