Q: Will these cameras work if I do not have Wifi. Or, if power goes out and wifi is down? I currently have cameras, but during power outages, no wifi to record data. Very unsettling when no light and people are likely to break in. Thanks

A: No. For this you need internet. And if you want something that doesn't need electricity that is a whole different set of security system not usually found at many commercial stores but often for businesses. I have this system which uses WIFI. No these don't work without WiFi. They definitely don't record if the power goes off, because the base station that stores recordings is plugged into electricity. These items record based on motion detection and do not record 24/7 but only when someone (and some animals) walk or run past it. I plug the base station into my home internet mesh system using an ethernet cable. This ethernet cable is in ADDITION to also plugging it into the electric at home. Depending on several factors you may not need to plug it directly into the internet and may only need to plug into electricity. The OVER THE AIR connection however is also the internet even if you are not using an ethernet cable. In older stone houses you probably will need to plug it into the internet with an ethernet cable. The cameras are battery driven for power, and are wireless. They need to be charged about once a year (more or less) but regarding transmission and recording it's transferred to the base via WIFI. I also have an older hardwired system that is not connected to WIFI. Look for a system that is hardwired, with a DVR if you don't want to use the internet. With my wired system I can connect it if I want to see recordings remotely. With a hard wired DVR system typically these record all activity 24/7. For this OTHER wired system with a DVR recorder, for that you would not need internet but you would need electrical power for it to work. Best Buy sells Night Owl, Swann and several other wired systems that do not need internet to work. As far as I know they all do need electricity. It may be possible to buy a generator or other power source that can provide power in the event of a major power outage. Sadly, today's "telecommunications companies" no longer provide the old school "copper wire" home land-line telephone lines. Those did work without electricity and used to be what home security systems were connected to. With that old system in place, an alarm company could still monitor your home when there was a major power outage. However even if you have a landline today, they are all "internet based" even if they don't tell you that so when power goes out in every house today, phones and any security lines attached to them will no longer work unless something like a generator is added to your home. A generator can provide electricity for your home in the event of a power outage. That is a separate device you'll need if you want coverage for electricity in your home during a power outage.

Q: Info regarding the batteries in the cameras. Are they rechargeable? Is there a charger? Are they replaceable?

A: The batteries in the cameras are rechargeable but not replaceable as they are enclosed within the camera housing. I'm sure this is to ensure weatherproofing. They charge using a USB cord which is included and claim to hold a charge up to six months.

Q: Does the base unit have to be connected to a router via an ethernet cable in order to work?

A: Initially, I thought the base station had to be connected to a router but it does not. I have my base station in my garage connected to my WiFi.

Q: Is it possible to use a larger SSD (say, 32 or 64 GB) to the unit?

A: At this point in time the SSD cards are not expandable to a larger size, according to information I've seen on the Eufy website and on chats on social media with people who like Eufy. There may be a change if the demand is there from the manufacturer but so far no they are not expandable. Ask yourself however how much do you need to save if there are no incidents that you "NEED" to record? I have a Eufy Cam system of devices around my house and most are pictures of the mailman or one of my family members coming in and out of the house. At night I get a number of creatures like foxes and raccoons or cats. Eufy Cams are motion detector triggered. I delete the recordings. For me the reason to save recordings is in the event of an "incident". Most of what you record on a daily basis - hopefully - isn't anything at all you want to keep to review next month or next year. I have downloaded a few of the animal videos to save but for the most part mostly all I record is deleted. Thank the Lord! :)

Q: How far back is the playback? Im looking for a camera that's going to play back at least a day back

A: If there is motion, it will detect and record it for 20 sec. That's what you can play back. If nothing has been detected it will not record thus there will nothing to play back. Hope this helps.

Q: Can I access the eufy homebase across the Internet, say from a computer somewhere else?

A: If you put the App on that computer you would be able to access the Eufy

Q: How portable is this system? I’m interested in bringing a portable camera security system with me when we travel, to be used in hotels and rental homes. We have dogs and I’d like to keep an eye on them when we’re away.

A: It is portable and can be used when traveling coz the home base is considered small but the only thing is that those cameras are designed to be mounted which can nor be done in hotel but i believe you can set using a table but it will be not secured as if pet hit table or camera itself, it might flip over

Q: What is the yearly fee?

A: There's no monthly or yearly fee on this or other eufy security system.

Great Wireless Security Camera system
The Eufy 2C 2-Cam Wireless Home Security System is a well designed good looking security camera and base station kit. The Base station is their Homebase 2 model and contains a 16 Gb EMMC to store your video clips. The EMMC is large enough to store up to 3 months of Video and pictures. The 2C cameras capture 1080p high resolution color and infrared images with a 135 degree field, have 2 way audio, a siren and spotlight. The cameras can hold a charge for up to 180 days. You charge the camera through a mini USB port on the bottom which is covered by a weatherproof rubber flap. The USB charging cord is included but not the charger. You can use any USB A charger you have. The cameras are IP67 certified making them pretty much weather resistant. The Kit comes with mounting hardware which is a 2 screw affair, very easy to install. You pick s spot, mount the small base then the swivel mount screws to it on one end and the camera on the other. To set up the cameras you download the Eufy app, select add device and choose the homebase2. Plug in the Homebase 2, connect it to your router with the included ethernet cable and wait for the light on it to turn blue. The app will acknowledge the home base is set up and the Home base will announce it is connected verbally. From there you will add each camera by selecting the add device then the camera press the sync button on the camera and wait for it to connect which the app acknowledges. Continue pairing your other camera. After both are paired attach them to the mount. You can also set up the camera options for Optimal battery (20 second clips) or Optimal surveillance (60 second clips). You can set up motion zones to restrict detection zones. If you use Google assistant, Apple HomeKit or Amazon Alexa the cameras can be integrated with them. If you want the cameras to operate on a schedule you can also set one up, especially useful at a business. I am contemplating getting a USB charger that attaches to my outdoor spotlights so I can charge the cams in place. It would have be cool if Anker develops a weatherproof charging cable that plugs into the bottom with its own rubber flap that you could leave in place or a wireless charging option. But 6 mo battery life is great for now. The wireless connection to the base station is great, I have a strong signal in all areas of my house. The app works well though wireless and cellular I tried them from across the state and the on demand connection of audio, video and spotlight work flawlessly. The cams have AI in them to prevent false trigger and are able to identify humans. I did have to turn up the sensitivity a little to get the capture to trigger. You can also arm or disarm a camera as needed. Oh by the way NO SUBCRIPTION for these devices. Your only limitation is the size of your storage. If you need more they do offer optional cloud storage for 2.99/mo per device or 9.99/mo for 10 devices. I was very impressed with the software and hardware design and ease of use and highly recommend this kit. Eufy has a full range of add on’s for this system, I will be adding more devices soon!

Highly recommended!
Works very well, the ability to set zones and activate / deactivate cameras from the app prevents any false activation saving battery life. My front camera's battery shows more 'drainage' than the rear backyard camera which is still almost full. It is easy to unscrew the cameras and charge them (mount them high enough so they can't be stolen) Self monitoring with no monthly fees is what attracted me to eufy

Easy Set Up, Great Functionality
I've used multiple wireless camera set-ups over the years and this one stacks up with any of them. Pros: - Even low skill individuals can set this system up. The directions are basic and clear. Even firmware updates are easy with the push up a button in the Eufy app. - Love the spotlight feature. I set my front door camera to turn on the spotlight when motion is detected at night. This should be enough to scare off any would be burglars approaching my front door. - Cameras can be set up anywhere you like! Indoors/ourdoors, it is up to you. The included mounts are easy to install and make it difficult for anyone to steal your camera. They need to be screwed off, but if you place them high enough and out of reach they will be well protected. - Excellent field of view, night vision is solid, picture is stellar in daylight. You can zoom in anywhere in the field of view by pinch to zoom. - 2-way audio works perfectly, allowing conversations or for you to just say to a solicitor, "Go away, we aren't interested", and watch as they try to figure out where the voice is coming from. - From your phone you can remotely set off alarms on any of your cameras OR on the base station. This is a terrific feature that would allow you to alert those nearby of a break-in that is in progress or to scare away potential intruders. - You can add more cameras to this system if you want to expand in the future. - Battery life is fantastic. I have the settings on medium battery usage meaning that longer video clips are recorded. But I'm still showing 100% battery life. Material that came with this unit indicates a single battery charge can last 6 months. This is possible because the camera can be on low power mode unless motion is detected. - You can remotely turn off cameras when you don't need them from the app to extend battery life. - Using the app and local storage are free. If you want cloud storage of your videos you will need to pay for a subscription fee. Cons: - The batteries are rechargeable in the cameras, but not replaceable. If the batteries fail in the future you would have to get a new camera to hook up to the base unit. This is a terrific system and definitely worth a look if you are shopping around for home security cameras.
