Great camera and floodlight combo
This is a great combo. The flood light is pretty bright. We have other LED flood lights on our house and I like the brightness and color temperature of these better. It has a good range of movement to be able to change where the lights aim. The motion sensor is pretty sensitive and has a good reach (depending on how high off the ground you mount the light. The cameras look good and you can adjust the sensitivity of when they detect motion. I am able to read license plates from where I have it mounted on my garage, about 12-15' off the ground. I have one that the speaker doesn't seem to work on and I keep forgetting to try the other. I really like that it is all powered by the electricity that powers the flood light and I don't have to worry about charging or swapping batteries on my exterior cameras, and that it works with my doorbell app. CONS: I can't view all my cameras on a singe screen in the app. It takes a fair amount of navigation to get from one camera to another, if you just want to see what's going on. As of right now (Nov 2017) there isn't any integration for the camera, motion, or lights with Smartthings. I really like the integration with my Ring doorbell and Smartthings and though that I would have the same functionality with the floodlight. So far, I own 2 of these and have been happy with them. Make sure you have good wifi coverage where you want to mount them, I am on the fringes and the quality of my doorbell videos and floodlight cam videos suffer as a result. I plan on improving signal in those areas to help them.

Wonderful Floodlight & Camera!
I have very expensive camera systems on 3 properties. I mean these cameras cost me $500 a piece and the whole system was more than $5,000 for each property. When I needed a couple of additional cameras to add to garages that weren't hard-wired for the initial cameras, I bought these. AND THEY ARE SPECTACULAR!!! I actually like them MUCH, MUCH MORE than my more-expensive, clunky, DVR recording, $5000 camera systems! I actually think the fidelity of the camera is better, I love that the floodlight comes on and the camera starts recording when motion is detected, and not only can I HEAR what is going on, I can SPEAK through my phone through the camera! I just love it! I can store video on the Cloud (it's an extra $10/month, but worth it), I can set the area of motion detection I want in a zone, and I can set the motion sensitivity. I also pointed the camera downwards to what I want to see and set the floodlights to specific areas where I would want them to come on if motion was detected. I really love that! Another great feature, is I can link to others in my town who have Ring cameras, and if they choose to post a video of an intruder, I can watch it. I also set the boundaries for how far around my house I want to watch others' posted intruder videos. It's like a modern-day Neighborhood Watch. I did have to buy an internet signal extender to put inside the garage so the Ring would have constant internet connectivity, but that's no big deal. I HIGHLY, HIGHLY, HIGHLY RECOMMEND these cameras and wish I hadn't monkeyed around with the more expensive ones that are hard-wired in.

Excellent Product
I have 4 Ring floodlight cameras and 2 Ring pro doorbells and I’m thoroughly impressed with the products ease of use, functionality, and quality. The floodlights literally take about 10 min to install ( remove old flood, screw in mounting bracket, connect wires, scan QR code and walk through App setup to connect). You then can Immediately see clear video, adjust sound & lights, motion sensitivity, notifications, etc.. Great sense of security and ability to monitor your home immediately, from anywhere on your phone or iPad. I’m also immediately notified when people/ vehicles are on my property. Great purchase.

Good Floodlight, Decent Recording,Bad App
The Ring Floodlight Cam works a lot better than the two battery operated Ring Spotlight Cams, which I took back for a refund. The motion sensing and video recording are more consistent and works about 98% of the time. There have been a few times the Floodlight Cam failed to record video during a motion alert, but a Ring representative emailed me in a timely manner and gave suggestions on correcting this issue. Video quality during the day is good. You can easily identify who's in your yard and whats going on. The video quality at night is just average at best. I've seen better on cheaper cameras. If something were to happen at night, you better hope the person being recorded is within 10 feet of the camera or you might have a hard time identifying this individual. NOW FOR THE WORST PART OF THIS SYSTEM............THE APP I am currently using a Samsung Galaxy Note 8 with Andriod 7.1 and everything is fully updated on my phone. My home wi-fi is not an issue and the Ring Floodlight Health Status always shows my connection as good to excellent. No problems there. Checking your motion alerts at home when your phone is connected to the same wi-fi as the Ring Floodlight Cam, all is well and the app responds most of the time. Now here is the problem.........75% of the time I've had motion alerts being away from home using my data network through Verizon, the app fails miserably. I get a motion alert, go to live view and get noting but a black screen with a rolling icon. This will eventually get you to a screen that states " Your Phone Is Having Trouble Connecting To The Ring". This is not caused by a poor cell signal. I have had full bars on Verizon's 4g LTE network and get nothing. How in the world are you supposed to view, talk or sound the alarm if needed when the app fails to deliver. I am not the only person out there with this issue. There are a lot of complaints posted in online forums, Google Play reviews of this app, YouTube and other sources stating the same issue. Ring needs to correct this problem. We have all seen the commercials of people out and about making it look so easy to respond to Motion Alerts, but this is not the case.
