Nice camera for outdoors. I put it on my fence post at my driveway with solar panel. Seems to stay charged just fine. My only complaint is that the motion detection is a bit tardy. I tend to get the back bumper of cars coming up my shared driveway, and miss the whole front part. Also, the trash truck came and picked up my trash in full view of the camera and it recorded nothing. Not real comforting.
Seems like good camera. Unlike the other cameras it doesn't need a base station. The only problem I have noted is the live stream is VERY SLOW to load.
Camera works really well. The only negative I have found so far is that sometimes it takes a while for it to connect up when you want a live view. I got the solar panel and so far it keeps the battery at 100% with only about 4 hours of sun each day. For the price and how well it works, I will buy at least one more soon.
I have two of these, both at the latest firmware. One which has 2 bars of signal takes a long time to load the live stream. Hopefully this will be resolved in a future update. Other than that, these are great cameras and I like that they don't need a base. I am using solar panels on both, and that is working great even in the winter with short days.
Giving it 1 star is very generous. It was an extremely frustrating product to try to use due to constant connectivity issues - even when placed close to WiFi.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
