    I struggled with setting it up due to my router running on 2.5 and 5ghz. I was unable to set my nighthawk router to only run on 2.5 for the camera. Not sure why, but it eventually connected after 2 hrs of research. I think it is a good camera, takes clear videos and several options to adjust movement. It does not have an adjustable base so the camera is only able to point out straight. I would have preferred it to be adjustable. It is an expensive investment but I got it on sale and had a best buy gift card. So far I am only using it to view the night time deer that are eating my plants.

    Plan on getting this with a 2.5 inch laptop drive

    So one thing that Eufy and Bust Buy (and nearly every other retailer and e-tailer for that matter) fail to mention is that the HomeBase works best when you add a hard drive to the mix. The good news is that nearly any laptop hard drive is compatible, and is incredibly easy to add. The bad news is you may also need to buy a precision screwdriver to install the drive. The bad news is you’ll probably decide two weeks later that you need a bigger hard drive. I suggest a 5400 RPM model as transfer speed isn’t a big issue but heat may be at some point. Otherwise, the S220 cameras are great and easy to use, the HomeBase is incredibly easy to use, and there are so many compatible options in the Eufy ecosystem to this that you’ll be able to find a camera to fit ANY need. Just as a side note, the reason I suggest a hard drive over a SSD with the HomeBase is that SSDs have a shorter lifespan than hard drives while being constantly written to, especially lower-end models with QLC memory chips. With 5 of my cameras constantly recording at 2k resolution, I’ve already captured 320GB of video in a week. Best Buy does sell 1 and 2 TB laptop hard drives that work perfectly with this and won’t break the bank.

    If you are in the look for new cameras, try these!! I was skeptical about solar cameras but they are by far the best in the market. I really like the clarity, the picture is so clear you can spot a fly from 100 feet away.(LOL not that good but you get the picture. I am not a good electronics nerd but these are very easy to set up.

    We wanted some cameras that could store videos locally and didn't want some giant thing cluttering up a shelf like the old security camera nvrs.

    I was surprised at how easy it was to get them working. I inserted an old drive for additional storage, installed the app on my phone and followed easy direction and it was up and working. I love how it can send notifications to my phone without using an external cloud service the I would have to pay for.

    So far these cameras have performed above and beyond anything that I would’ve expected from a solar charged camera. The image quality is excellent and they do an excellent job on recharging themselves. I also love that the base station comes with an expansion slot for an additional hard drive and allows. You to also connect an external USB hard drive as well.

    First time with Eufy brand. The cameras are great quality. I love how the homebase 3 is a doorbell chime, and easy to expand storage. My issue is that I had my cameras switched to off mode before I hung them outside and I noticed the red lights were coming on and you could hear click. This means the camera is being access/recording. Checked my app and nothing in history. I wrote Eufy and have been trying to resolve for 3-4 days now. This makes me feel uncomfortable. I am sure they may be malfunctioning but its the first time I was scared like they are easy to hack. May not be the case. But iI do not yet have an answer why they kick on and shouldn't be.
