    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!

    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.

    Terrific Security Cameras - Simple To Set Up

    |

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Eufy, is Part of Anker Innovations and their motto is “Smart Home Simplified.” This EufyCam 2C Security Camera System certainly supports that motto. To be honest, I was simply dreading setting it up and installing the cameras. We recently moved into a brand-new home and the house we left had wireless security cameras from a different manufacturer, which were utterly disappointing. And if you wanted to access video recordings, you had to pay a monthly access fee. Well not with the EufyCam 2C system. It comes with a 16 GB SSD, which you have total control over and COSTS not ONE PENNY per month to store video clips (which you can Watermark and time stamp via settings in the Eufy Security App). Thats not just nice thats TERRIFIC and saves me money. Another terrific advantage the EufyCam 2C system offers is a 180 day (Six Month) battery. Our previous system required getting on a ladder to remove the cameras almost every 6 weeks or so to charge the batteries, which was a major pain. We haven’t had the system long enough to know if 180 days is realistic, but it takes 5 hours to charge the cameras, so it has larger batteries inside than most lesser systems, which should support the 6 month claim. Simply said, the EufyCam 2C system is some kind of special. Here are my thoughts: It comes nicely packaged as you can see from the first attached photo. You get the two cameras, the base station, an ethernet cable to connect the base station to your router, a charging cable for the cameras (it’s Micro USB but I wish they had gone with USB C), the mounting hardware for the cameras, a Quick Start Guide and stickers (for marking the mounting holes and for letting would be unwelcome visitors know you have a security camera system from EufyCam). Setting up the EufyCam 2C system couldn’t be simpler. If you get one, make sure you charge the cameras before you do anything. As mentioned above, it can take up to 5 hours to charge them and that was my experience with them fresh out of the box. If you’re an Android or iOS user, you go to the App Store on either platform and download the Eufy Security App, which you’ll need to help you get everything connected. Next you plug the base station into power and connect the supplied ethernet cable to your home router. Once the base station is connected directly, the Eufy Security App walks you through setting everything up seamlessly. Once connected, you can then move to a pure Wifi connection and disconnect the base station from your router, which lets you move the base station where you need to ensure the strongest signal to the cameras. For our home, we have a mesh network with three nodes placed in the front, middle and back of the house. This setup provides excellent connection to both cameras, one at the front and one at the back of our home. This to me was one of the biggest surprises about the EufyCam system. The system we had in our home previously had a very difficult time staying connected to the base station and was in fact the reason we spent hundreds of dollars to move up to a Mesh Network to begin with. Perhaps because of the Mesh Network, both cameras are getting a very strong Wifi signal. But even before I went from the wired ethernet setup to Wifi directly, both cameras were getting a decent signal. And both cameras were quite far from the base station. I’m technically savvy, but installation challenged when power tools are required. We live in Florida, and our new home is built to withstand 150 mph winds from hurricanes, so its stucco over block. Me having to drill into concrete to install the camera bases was a bit daunting. But with a good masonry drill bit it went surprisingly well. I did end up using shorter anchors than were supplied with the system. Once mounted, the cameras are very secure and can be adjusted to any angle you might want. PLEASE NOTE: The Quick Start Guide recommends you test the cameras in the locations you want to mount them before you drill any holes. I cannot stress enough how important this step is. Speaking of, you can take photos at any time through the app of a scene, which is stored directly in your Photo App on your phone. Attached is a photo of the view from the camera on the back our home. Here are some of the key specifications of the system: 1080P Full HD Live Streaming 16 GB local storage via the base station, which you have full control over Military Grade Encryption for top notch security IP67 Weatherproofing Human Detection and Activity Zones 2C Way Radio so you can greet welcome OR unwelcome visitors Integration with Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant or Apple HomeKit Eufy Security Application for Android or iOS – Note this app even works in landscape mode with iPad We haven’t owned the system for a long time yet, but given previous positive experience with Anker products, the fantastically simple set up of the system, 180 day battery, HD video, IP67 Weatherproofed Cameras and Military grade encryption, I’m really pleased with the system so far. I may have been dreading setting up and installing the system, but it was just so easy, even for this installation challenged fellow. I am confident you’ll have a very easy time setting this up to protect your home. I mark the EufyCam 2C system as highly recommended!

    It hands down beats all of their competitors. I love that we have security and it’s totally free to store, save and monitor our home. It allows for the most customizations based on your needs. You can set zones, geofencing, create automated triggers (i.e. one camera picks up something, all cameras begin to record, etc.), away or home security options, set schedules. It’s also great as a baby monitor, as it listens for and detects crying. It also integrates into your smart home setup and can be accessed via an assistant (google, Alexa, HomeKit). We were already familiar with the Eufy security system, bc we have their EufyCam 2 in a couple rooms throughout our home. The biggest difference between this Cam2 and the Cam2c-2, is that this one only allows 180 days on one charge and the Cam2 is 365 days on one charge. Also this one is smaller in terms of size to the Cam2c-2. The size is great bc it’s barely noticeable on our homes exterior. Other than the battery life, the video and streaming quality is the same. It’s superb. It’s high and very sharp. You can see objects, cars, people extremely clear and colors are bright and vivid. Even in nighttime mode the visuals are sharp and faces are recognizable. It’s also completely wireless, so easy for anyone to operate and install. No drilling through your exterior into the attic and running wire. Night vision in b&w is great. I did find that when the spotlight was turned on, it would change the video from b&w to color but if there’s shadows like a wall or stairs that area may remain a bit dark bc the light isn’t as strong or large enough to light the entire area. The light may only serve to help the camera switch from b&w so you can have full color at night. You can set zones so that the camera will go off or record only when the zones are activated by human movement or all activity, depending on your personal settings. The cameras will begin to recognize faces. The battery life lasts pretty long from my experience, but it’s also determined by the amount of activity and recording it picks up. If you customize the recording times it will significantly drain the battery. With my testing and experience with their other model, I found that to be very true. So I recommend keeping it on its original setting unless you want longer recorded clips, like if you’re traveling out of town. Sound is clear and motion notification is fast. From the time someone enters the zone and your phone is notified its just a second. I was having issues with the notifications not coming to my phone after my latest update. I finally figured out that I needed to update my password to meet their new security standards. Once I did that step, I began receiving my notifications again. So if you’re having that issue, update password and for further security add two-step authentication. I highly recommend trying EufySecurity if you’re in the market for home camera security that won’t break your bank. The wide angle range, brilliant color, sharp picture, crisp night vision, immediate notifications, full customization, no wire installation, always free monitoring, streaming, storing and video capturing is what has us loving this system and why we will continue to use them throughout and around our home.

    This is now my 3rd product in the Eufy security line. I own the video doorbell, the floodlight camera, and now, the 2C wireless camera. Like the doorbell, this comes with a base station that you place indoors. To setup, download the app, then scan the QR code on each camera to sync. Charge the cameras, mount them where you want them, & go! The app is very intuitive, I now have all the devices, (2C, doorbell, & floodlight) on the one app. Image quality is excellent; at night it switches to black & white infrared mode. It also has a built in spotlight, when the spotlight comes on, there's enough light that the image reverts back to color. Within the app, there are a number of settings, you can change the length of time it will record, whether or not to display a status led, watermark the image, audio & notification settings. The manufacturer claim is that there is up to a 6 month period before the battery needs charging. This obviously is dependent upon the length of clips you're recording, the number of detections, and other settings. You can view the battery status of each device through the app, I've had them running now for a week, and the batteries are showing 95% charge - so far, so good. When it comes time to recharge, the camera unscrews easily from the mount, take it inside, & hook it up to the base station. I've seen elsewhere on the web that Eufy plans to come out with solar charging panels for these cameras which would obviously eliminate the need for charging. The instruction manual also states that each base station can handle up to 20 cameras; that might be a bit excessive for most, but good to know you can expand the system. I'm very happy with all of my Eufy security products, not only for their performance, but also the fact that the product is subscription free.

    Good Camera System just as good as the expensive

    Scroll down to bottom for short conclusion. Needed a security system for my rental property, I've been having some issues with strangers coming on to the property. I didn't want the hassle of wiring up a security system, making extra holes that could introduce new water leaks or unsightly wires. I also didn't want to spend a fortune for a large brand name system with mediocre performance. Enter the Eufy - eufyCam 2C 2-Cam Kit, it hit every check on my list of needs: Low cost Ability to record Decent performance (turned out to be great performance) Easy to install Easy to Use Good battery life Just a few words of my experience with Camera security system, I'm a pretty tech geek that likes to move towards integrating new tech into my home. I've owned other large brand wireless security camera systems. Out of the box With this kit you're getting the home base, 2 easy cams, network cable and power supply. The basic kit but the home base is expandable to use other Eufy products like the Doorbell camera and door or window sensors. One of the reason I was attracted to this sytem. Installation: Installation was easy and fast, the app and home base will voice guide you on what to do. I thought this was a very smart way to walkthrough even the noviciest (intended to spell it that way) of novice users. Installation was fast and easy, yes, I'm mentioning it again. I was able to set up the system in 15 minutes, 10 of those minutes were used to figure out that I accidentally hit off switch on the surge protector to the router. Experience of using the app The app was easy to navigate and use. I couldn't be happier with the intuitive buttons and User Interface. There some similarities of the larger brand name app so I was able to easily navigate through it. Cameras, The Cameras have a good balance of good resolution (could be more but 1080 is great) and battery life. One of the things I was worried about since this was a battery system and installing the cameras on my roof. I didn't want to have to put up a latter and pull the cameras down to charge each one for a few hours so I wanted a Camera system I could leave for a few months. Eufy Claims 180 days which is 6 months. Of course this goes down with your amount of use and camera settings. Another key feature I needed was the ability to record, while the other big name camera systems offer could base recording they also require a paid subscription. I wanted a system i could keep low cost not just for initial purchase but for the life of use. The Eufy home base has a 16GB internal memory that can view recordings and save locally or even download them to your phone. Conclusion: I really like this camera system. The system was easy to install and use as well as surprisingly good performance and value compared to the larger name system. The Eufy system is also expandable to use other line of their products expanding it's capabilities. HIGHLY recommended! .

    My biggest gripe about a lot of the new security cameras is you’re either tied to a subscription, wire or both! Eufy truly cuts both at a price that’s great for a two camera system. The system includes two battery powered wireless cameras and a base station with 16gb of storage. Having a base station with built in storage, if someone steals your camera outside, you’ll still have video evidence of it. Cloud based systems give you this also, but come with a monthly or yearly fee. Eufy claims 180 day battery life, I think this is a little optimistic even when using the optimal battery life setting in the app. I have mine setup for human detection only and optimal battery life and after a week, the battery is showing 87% thru the app. The cameras are in a high traffic areas so this could be the reason, as the camera will still detect all events (even when set to human only detection), but just won’t notify you. I would like to see Eufy offer a solar power option for charging the battery. Camera performance is an A for daytime and a solid B at night. Obviously the better the light the better the night time video will be. Motion detection during the day and night (set to human only) has been excellent with clear weather. During some rain showers, (my cameras are in the elements), the cameras at night had a problem with human detection and during the day it started detecting my vehicle leaving the garage. This may be remedied with turning motion detection on and off. The cameras also offer a wider angle than other cameras I’ve tried. You can integrate the cameras with Apple HomeKit secure video. This gives you cloud storage with end to end encryption for strong security and privacy. I set up HomeKit thru the Eufy app and that seems to be the best way to do it. The app itself is very well designed and gives you a lot of control. I would like to see Eufy add a button in the app on the main video view, that would allow you to shut motion detection on/off quickly. This camera system gives you a true wireless and subscription free service at an excellent price.

    The initial set-up of the Eufy HomeBase 2 is quite easy; plug in the HomeBase to the power supply, connect the supplied ethernet cable from the HomeBase to your home router, and download the Eufy Security app onto your ISO or your android device. The HomeBase will talk to you to let you know when something is not connected. The cameras came pre-charged which is great for setting up your initial plan for camera placement. I tested both eufyCam 2C cameras and found I had a lot of options for placement, the wireless reception is excellent. I attached both cameras to the HomeBase and fully charged them prior to mounting cameras. I mounted one camera on the front of the house, approximately 35 feet from the Eufy 2 base, covering the front door and the carport. I mounted the other, at the back of the house, approximately 40 feet from the Eufy 2 base and this covered a large amount of the backyard. I find the eufyCam 2C camera mounts a little lacking in material and design. The mounts are a plastic type material and due to the design, I found I had to over tighten the connection to get them to hold the position of the cameras. I was concerned that the over tightening may damage the threads. I experienced a distorted reflective video, on both cameras, especially at night. I had to adjust the cameras downward, so they were not monitoring any part of the eaves on the house. Prior to do this I was getting a reflection from the eaves of the house back to the camera which was causing an odd reflection/glare video. Once I did this the video was incredible in the daytime and at night in full darkness. The night vision is amazing. You will need to take a little bit of time setting the camera to your desired settings. You have a host of settings to suit your personal needs. One of the setting I like is the, Human Only, or All Motions. By setting our back camera to Human Only, I can let the dogs out and they will not activate the cameras. I have had one camera pick up a large cat, one time. The HomeBase and the Cameras have alarms built in and the alarms are incredibly loud, be ready if you chose to test them, it will startle you. You can set the HomeBase as the alarm or the camera and both are very loud and would scare off any intruder. I have encountered a few other issues however I am sure with correct adjustments I will eliminate the issues. The HomeBase and the Cameras appear to be very well designed and constructed. The eufycam 2C wire-free HD security Camera set is a genuinely nice system, that you can add too, making it a quality security system.

    As a longtime fan of Anker, I’ve been excited to get my hands on these Eufy cameras. Anker has proven to deliver some of the best mobile power products on the market, I expected no exception here either. Out of the box it’s clear that the cameras and base station are sturdy and of a high build quality. They don’t look bad either. They look great but are also low key enough that they can easily blend in with a wall. Let’s start with one of the best features found on any modern home camera system – a cloud subscription that IS NOT REQUIRED! The base stations include 16GBs of local storage. It might not seem like a lot, but keep in mind that the system does not continuously record. Instead it only records on motion. Considering how great the motion detection is, that hasn’t been a problem for me. Configuration and installation are an absolute cakewalk. I’d say from the time it took to get the ladder to the time it took to launch the app and view both cameras was probably only about an hour. I think the average person could get these cameras up without an issue in a relatively short amount of time. Setting up the app can be done with little effort and you’ll be recording in no time. With a little extra time, you can setup some advanced features that really let the system shine. Expect multiple security modes with configurable alerts, features, automations (think ITTT), device sharing, cloud recording, and RTSP streaming. These really are the most ideal cameras for the mainstream buyer. I can’t believe how easy the whole platform is. This is hands down one of the best bang for the buck complete camera/security systems. Once this kit is installed there are a whole collection of expandable security components that you can add to your system. The base station and camera are just the beginning!

    The Eufy Wire-Free 1080p Security Camera With military grade encryption is by far the best 1080p wireless camera system I’ve had the privilege to test, hands down. The setup from unboxing to installation took less than 10 minutes, including setting up the app and cameras. The quality out of the box is solid. Don’t let the compact size fool you, beneath the polished weatherproof exterior is state of the art electronics and 1080p camera. The HiDef camera is sharp in full color and NIGHT MODE. With the optional silicone cover the Eufy Wire-Free 1080p Security Camera blends into the background making it hard to spit at night. What good is a camera if it stands out like a sore thumb, and the added weatherproofing doesn’t hurt either. Now for the best goodie. 180 day battery charge!!! Honestly, if the camera is in a high traffic area I’ve read that the life is more like 8 weeks. But for the average user 180 days is feasible. Charging ia done via a USB port on HOMEBASE or wall charger with a zero to full in about 4 hours. Now for the piece de resistance that makes the Eufy Wire-Free 1080p Security Camera irresistible ….. there’s no monthly fees or charges to store video in the cloud. This system is a win win WIN anyway you look at it. Cheers!

    I researched this brand, and they are rated high, especially for the price. This is my first purchase of a camera for outdoors and I am not very experienced in mounting anything to a building. These are very easy to install. They supply a sticker so you can easily mark and drill the holes with ease. They need to be mounted at least 10 ft high. I live in apartments and that is about as high as I can get, but it is high enough that someone can't just walk up and remove the cameras. I will be able to use a step ladder to remove them for charging, but the charge lasts 180 days so that won't be an issue. To be honest, I got on YouTube and found a video that walked me through connecting the cameras to the home base and I found a video on how to mount it. I've never used a drill until I got these. It wasn't difficult to set up the connections to the home base and I am no techie. I labeled 1-unit front door and the other back patio. The range of view lets me see my patio area and the sidewalks, so the range is really good. My front door allows me to see my front door area and my neighbors. I love they are wireless, and I don't have to purchase a subscription! They are very clear visually, day or night. You can set it up to notify you if you leave home, which is a nice option. And you can also set the sensitivity. Living in an apartment people are walking by all day with dogs, etc. Oh, I love that I can speak thru the camera, and it has a spotlight and siren. The siren is pretty loud. I've had some violent neighbors thru the years and knowing I can warn someone and cause a lot of noise in a crisis is awesome They were delivered quickly, and I feel confident because Best Buy stands by their products. I am super pleased and feel so much safer.

    These cameras are very nice. I already have four Eufy cameras, and they're great as well, so when I got the chance to test these, I had to take it. These cameras are very compact and have built in AI that allows them to be set to trigger only on human detection. You can set the cameras to trigger on any movement, or only trigger on human detection during the day yet still trigger on any movement at night. It would be nice to have a setting that would only trigger on human detection, period; I have alot of animal around the house, especially at night which results in my phone being alerted at any hour. Not a huge problem, but I always want to know when movement is detected, so it would be nice to filter out animals, even at night. Settings up the cameras was very fast. I already have a base-station, so adding both cameras took less than 5 minutes. I placed both of the cameras outside and the one thing that really stood out was the night vision; it's incredible. The cameras have onboard lights, but I've found that I get better clarity without the light activated. I really like these cameras. They're much smaller than the other ones I have, and as I said, their night vision is stellar. I would recommend these without hesitation.

    These cameras work great and the price is much more reasonable than other brands. They were easy to set up and start using and the picture quality is great. You can set up notifications to your phone and there is no service fee which is the downfall of many other camera brands. The quality of picture at night is also very good and we like that you can talk through them as well. We live where it is cold and even after a month of use the battery is still going strong. The sound quality is amazing as well. I would recommend these cameras to anyone who asked. I did a lot of research prior to buying them and I am glad I went with this brand and set up.

    Left Blink for eufy and it was SO WORTH IT

    I travel for work almost every other week. I originally purchased the Blink camera system because I was thrilled with having month long battery life and the tiny profile cameras I could mount in the corner of my room. They served me well for a time, but like many people I began having major privacy concerns when Amazon purchased them. Eufy's camera systems are different. No footage is uploaded to the cloud and instead all of your video lives locally on your device. Eufy claims it is encrypted, but I wish they would specify if their employees have any way to ever access the footage or not. Some clarification on the privacy end of things would help further set them apart from Blink and their other competitions. I decided to take a chance on the Eufy 2C after having an amazing experience with Eufy's video doorbell. I'm so glad I did! The cameras are low profile and blend in easily in corners or even just mounted to walls. The base station is quite small and looks right at home next to my router, and the app works instantly with no headache. The cameras have crisp video and audio and Eufy provides easy-to-follow instructions for mounting. I do wish the mounts were magnetic or had a way to quickly remove the cameras for charging. Thankfully, after several days I haven't gone down a single tick in battery life so I am hopeful charging will be few and far between. Notably missing is Homekit support and expandable storage, but Eufy promises us that both of these features are coming soon. They seem to have a good track-record for customer service so I am hopeful. Below I will provide some pros/cons but to be honest none of the cons are dealbreakers, just things I hope Eufy will consider for their next software updates and product iterations. This is the best security camera system I have ever used and one of the simplest setups as well. I can't recommend this product enough! Go buy it! Pros: -GREAT video quality -Spotlight functionality -Seamless App and great wireless range -Good installation instructions -Battery life/USB charging -RTSP (record to your network or NAS!) -Clear audio & 2/way audio -Good nightvision performance -Recording light -Built-in sirens on each camera and homebase -AI detection means my pets don't set off the cameras (THANK-YOU!) Cons: -No HomeKit Support -No Geofencing (Auto arm on leaving and disarm on arrival) -16GB/ No way to expand storage with USB or SD (yet) -Mounts are cumbersome, magnetic would be a lot easier to remove for charging -No way to re-arrange order of cameras in the app

    Simple setup, battery lasts approximately 13-15 days on high sensitivity setting (excluding flashlight use). In high-traffic zones, triggers occur 1-3 times every 30 minutes so constantly being triggered. Impressive low-light performance with black and white night vision mode.
