From my experience you can not record or live steam viewing of it continuously unless it is hard wired with the power cord. On battery you will need to refresh it often to “wake” it. Also, if you want continuous (24/7) recording you need to pay a monthly fee. Otherwise you just get clips recorded of “events” when people are recognized by the camera. If you can use the power cord you will be happier with the performance. But from my research this is probably the best camera for streaming or live recording either way. None of them are amazing for that with just battery power.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.The camera can only record continues video if it’s hardwire to an outlet for power .you must also purchase nest aware for the year. Without doing these things, the camera only records when it detects someone or something. This is to save battery.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Battery life will depend on factors including activity, temperature, and camera settings that you select. You may extend the battery life of your camera by adjusting video quality, length of video clips, time between recorded events, and using activity zones to monitor specific areas. Here are some typical scenarios: Busy: About 1.5 months battery life (about 20 - 25 recorded events per day) Typical: About 3 months battery life (about 9 - 12 recorded events per day) Quiet: About 7 months battery life (about 2 - 4 recorded events per day) The Google Home app shows you how much time you have left until your battery will need to be charged, and the app will also notify you once the camera needs to charge.
