Don't place behind a window!
on January 14, 2026
Posted by: kaccij_6919
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I initially got this camera to place inside looking out my living room windows since I was living in apartments and unable to mount them outside. This worked great during the day, but unfortunately the infrared lights on them caused a massive glare at night and made the camera completely useless after dark and there was no settings to turn the IR lights off. Luckily the mount for the camera worked as a regular stand so I was able to set it on the window ledge. Other than the IR issue, this camera is amazing! So many great features are included and the color mode for nighttime i think works even better than the black and white! The solar power is a huge bonus since I don't have outdoor outlets and it works great even with several days of rain! I was also offered a 90 day free trial of their highest tier monthly subscription service for home surveillance. I did not opt to use it, but the offer was very generous and may be worthwhile to some! You can't go wrong with this camera, just make sure you don't place them behind a window! Lol

Hi Kacci,
Thank you for your thoughtful and detailed review. We’re glad to hear that the camera performed well during the day and that you found the overall features, color night mode, and solar charging especially useful. It’s great to know the solar panel continued to perform reliably even through several days of rain.
You’re absolutely right about infrared lights and window placement. IR reflection on glass can cause glare at night, and we appreciate you pointing that out for other customers. We’re also happy to hear that the included mount worked well as a stand and that the color night mode exceeded your expectations.
Thank you as well for sharing your thoughts on the subscription trial. While it may not be for everyone, we’re glad you found the offer generous and potentially valuable for others.
We truly appreciate you taking the time to share your experience and helpful tips. If you ever need assistance or have questions in the future, please don’t hesitate to reach out. We're always here to help.
Your feedback is truly appreciated.
Mary -Swann Team.

Hi Bruce,
Thank you for your feedback. We’re really pleased to hear that you’re extremely happy with the unit overall. At the same time, we understand your concern regarding motion detection, particularly that vehicles are being detected at longer distances while people are only detected within a much shorter range. Motion sensitivity can be influenced by factors such as camera placement, detection zones, and sensitivity settings, and we’d be happy to help you fine-tune these to better suit your environment.
If you’d like assistance optimizing the detection for people movement, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us anytime. We're here to help.
