I didnt like paying for the Arlo subscription every month so i replaced the whole system with Eufy. Both solar powered. I should have kept arlo. The main issue i had was with recording times , with arlo it can be set to continue recording when there is still activity . With Eufy it can only record 120 seconds max and will stop recording when activety ends - and not restart with new activity of the same subject(weird default option) . This makes a big difference in practice, We had a theft from our car during our 5 years owning arlo. We were able to get the 4 minutes recording of the thief checking car doors and go through one car searching, then the theft . Activity didnt end so it kept recording. With Eufy we have a theft from the front porch and the video cut off after recording time and missed the activity of the actual theft. So missed it completely . Also W eufy you have to balance between solar generated power with how much surveillance wanted . With my house in sunny arizona , several of the devices needed at least 4 hours of direct sunlight and i hade to purchase a seperate solar panal to keep up with the power required , and still didnt have the survellance wanted

I've been using the **eufyCam 3 with 5 outdoor 4K cameras and HomeBase 3** for a few weeks now, and I must say—it's one of the most impressive home security systems I’ve come across. Pros: Crystal Clear 4K Quality: The video resolution is outstanding. You can easily identify faces, license plates, and other fine details even from a distance. Solar Powered Convenience:The built-in solar panels are a game-changer. I haven’t had to recharge the batteries manually since installation, even with moderate sunlight. AI + Local Storage:HomeBase 3’s built-in AI does a solid job of person detection and filtering out false alerts. Plus, I love that everything is stored locally—no monthly subscription needed! Easy Setup: Installation was straightforward. The app walks you through the process, and the wireless design made it simple to mount cameras anywhere. Smart Integration: Works seamlessly with Alexa and Google Assistant, and the app offers a smooth user experience. Cons: Initial Battery Charge Required: Even though they’re solar-powered, they need a full charge before installation. Plan ahead. Wi-Fi Signal Sensitivity: Placement is key. Make sure your Wi-Fi or HomeBase signal is strong enough to reach all camera spots. If you're looking for a premium, no-subscription-required security solution with 4K clarity and solar convenience, the eufyCam 3 is an excellent investment. It's reliable, intelligent, and offers peace of mind without the hidden costs.

Absolutely best wireless security camera system. Battery life last months without any charge, and home base is compatible with most hard drives for extra space.
