Customers are saying

Customers consistently note the excellent camera quality, long battery life, and ease of use of the SoloCam S40. The solar panel is a frequently praised feature, enabling convenient and continuous operation. While some users experienced issues with notifications and concerns about water resistance, the positive feedback on features like night vision, motion detection, and the spotlight significantly outweighs the negative comments. The built-in storage, eliminating subscription fees, is another highly valued aspect.

    A value packed camera

    I like the camera. And for what it’s intended use is, it is very clear. However if I were to do it over, I’d have bought of the 360• cameras for the front yard. I do believe my sales person, Issac Moore, I understand why what we bought works for our situation. Very happy customer overall

    We found these easy to install. The app is also easy to navigate. These cameras were installed at our vacation home, and we now plan to install at our primary home. The app allows us to group cameras by location, and easily manage all cameras in a group.

    Cannot get it to connect to Wi-Fi

    I charged the eufy - Security Spotlight Cam Solar 2K for several hours, until the blue charging light went off. Then I opened the eufy security app to add a new device. Tapping the SolarCam Solar pic begins Wi-Fi setup by entering my password to the automatically selected 2.4G connection. Solor Cam only supports 2.4GHz Wi-Fi networks. Pressing the sync button until a beep is heard to continue to a QR code on my phone to be scanned by the eufy - Security Spotlight Cam Solar 2K to connect to my Wi-Fi network. I then heard the message, “Connecting to the Wi-Fi network please wait.” After waiting a few minutes, I then heard, “Failed to connect to the network please try again.” I kept trying to connect, but I kept receiving the same error message. I cannot truly critique the eufy - Security Spotlight Cam Solar 2K, because of the failure to connect to Wi-Fi.

      If possible, please try the following steps to see if the issue persists:
      -Make sure you have selected " Solar SoloCam" when you add the device to the app.

      -Please check if you have set the firewall or whitelist in your router
      -Make sure the device is connected to 2.4GHz Wi-Fi.
      -Hold the "SYNC" button for 10s to reset the camera. Wait about a few minutes to add it again.

    I've had the camera for about 3 weeks so far and it has been great. My only problem is that I cannot pause and scroll through a video clip on the app...TBD on reliability in Texas heat

    Lasted 15 mos!

    Now a scarecrow after only 15 mos! Other similar reviews. 30% discount on next purchase an insult w/sale often more. Only glutton for punishment would buy another 15 mo product. Promised 24 hour help escalation never occurred. How about a sliding scale buyback (recycle/refurbish) program?

    I would give these a ZERO if I could. This camera will NOT work with their Home Base 2 or Home Base 3. "Our engineers are working on it" is what Eufy says. Even on the Eufy commnuity pages they have all of this documented. They say it will work with a 2.4g Wifi, but they did not work with my AT&T system. Save your money. BTW: Eufy tech support is the worst I've ever seen in my 35 years in IT too.
