A: You can mix and match cameras as long as they work with the same model HomeBase. In this case, the 1080p EufyCam and the Pro 2K EufyCam both use the HomeBase 2, so any motion events from either camera will be recorded and stored on the HomeBase 2.
Q: What is the home base they talk about and do you need it for the cameras to work?
A: No. I have 2 outdoor 2k cameras, indoor 2k cam, door lock and doorbell cam and have no home base. All the devices connect to my router and I access them with eufy security app that allows me to access all of the devices. That being said, my 2 floodlight cameras only have a permanently fixed internal memory of 4gb each, making gobs of video storeage not possible. I can usually store about a months worth of clips at a time. The floodlights will auto delete the oldest files to make room for the new. The doorbell has an expandable memory of up to 32gb, and the indoor cam is the same. There is also cloud storage you can pay for but it’s not necessary. I think there are some cameras and smart devices eufy makes that require a home base, but not all. Read the fine print. There is also a new homebase 3 out that has the ability to expand memory. Uses some sort of bio smart tech that I’m not familiar with as opposed to AI. It also apparently has a better encryption for security. The only thing that concerns me about the base is that the cameras connected to it rather than your Wi-Fi, basically making it so that you better centralize your homebase in your house. As opposed to having a Wi-Fi router with extenders.
Q: So is the home base something I need to purchase in order for cameras to work?
A: Yes. Due to the camera to base encryption. The base that comes with the 2 camera kits will control up to 16 cameras (I believe)
A: Cameras talk to the home base directly.
Q: is the eufycam outdoor night vision
A: Yes
Q: do the cameras activate with motion or run continuously on a loop
A: Motion triggers it to start recording.
A: do you mean assign the HomeBase with a specific IP Address with the DHCP server? yes. its like a regular appliance. you can also specify which ports are open etc. but if you block some ports it might not alow the system to work properly
Q: Can an Amazon home station be substituted for the home station if I have Amazon home?
A: No, the camera can only with eufy homebase currently. If you have any further questions, please feel free to contact us via [email protected] or call us at +1 (800) 988 7973.
