Excellent solar panels. It works perfectly for my eufycam 2 pro. Easy to install just following the instructions.. I charged it under the sun for a few days before I connect to the camera. It came with 13' cable so that you can have more options to install it where you think there is more sun light. After you install it make sure you go to the camera settings and switch the power source from battery to solar panel in order for it to work. So far so good and I would recommend it to anyone.

Why climb a ladder just to take down and charge multiple cameras?
I've located mine below the cameras so rainwater can't drip down the cable and possibly ruin the device.
They work as expected and you can view the charge status in the eufy Security app.

I have the Eufy Cam 2 Pro and love the cams. The battery life is good but I have it in a high alert area so I decided to get this solar panel so I didn’t have to keep taking it down to charge it.
The solar panel came with all the necessary hardware connections for my specific camera. It had hardware for most of the Eufy cameras that they make. The install was simple and easy. I made sure to have it in direct sunlight all the time and I charged my camera fully right before I hooked the solar panel up. The wire to the panel is very long, I wanna say at least 13ft, so you can maneuver it in so many places outside your home. I’m so impressed that I think I’m going to buy another two for my other cameras.
The panel quality is solid, it doesn’t feel cheap or low quality. Their is a hard outer layer on the outside that will allow it to withstand the outside elements.
I do wish that Eufy priced this at $30 instead of $60. I feel like they are a little too expensive. But overall, I like them for what it offers.

This is an excellent product for the money. My front door camera gets a lot of action and I had to recharge it every 3 months or so, it's also the most difficult of all my cameras to bring down and recharge since it's all the way out there on top of the entrance, I had to get a ladder climb and bring it down, which was not only annoying but dangerous.
Even though it was hard for me to mount (I have a tile roof with no gutter) I have managed to get it to mount using some double-sided Velcro and some tools from Lowe's to get it attached to one of the roof tiles.
It's now been two weeks since I got it mounted in my roof, I have changed the camera settings to the highest sensitivity and to catch all movements (not only humans), I also extended the length of the clips to 60 seconds, still I'm happy to report my battery is now showing as %100 full all the time, it hasn't gone done one single bar.
Remember, it is important to go into the app and go to: Camera Settings/Power Manager/ then change the "Power Source" to "Solar Panel" instead of "Battery", otherwise you might have issues or low performance, Once you do this, you will see a new Solar icon next to the Camera icon on the app.
I just got my second one and will mount it this weekend. I'm planning to get one for all my 4 cameras. It is really worthy.
Get it now, you won't regret it.

This thing is incredibly awesome. Purchased 3. Mounted them on my gutters with gutter mounts and in a few days, they took all three of my eufy cam 2 pros to 100% charge and have kept them there. I have one camera that is pointed at my driveway and into the street. That particular camera is getting constant action even with the motion zones set to ignore other stuff. The camera went from 100% battery down to 18% in three months. No way the camera would last the one year battery charge eufy was advertising. Thought I would have to take it down and charge every three months. With this solar panel the camera went from 18% battery left to 100% fully charged in just a few days! With these, I will never have to take my cameras down to charge. Of course YMMV, I have mine gutter mounted and I’m lucky that all three are in a location that gets sun almost all day.
As for the panels themselves, they appear well built, have a long connection cable so that you can mount them further away from the cameras if needed, and come with all the adapters/mounts needed to use with all eufy cams. Overall, excellent product!

When I first got this it worked great. Then it rained a few times and moisture can be seen on the solar panel so now its slow to charge my camera outside. If you can place it where it won't get wet and get charged from the sun then it would be perfect for you. Thank goodness I bought the protection plan. Will trade for another when I have the extra time.

The Anker/eufy cameras are pretty excellent when it comes to quality, and far better than my previous Arlo cameras when it comes to battery life. However, due to the more involved and responsive HomeKit Secure Video capabilities, the 365 battery life takes a hit over using just the Anker/eufy app. To combat this, I purchase the solar panel and installed it on the camera that runs its battery down the quickest. It immediately started charging the camera and now the camera stays fully charged at all times. Install was painless (5 minutes, start to finish). It does what it was designed to do and wasn't prohibitively expensive.

Best solar....NO MORE LADDER

Best thing I've purchased aside from the camera. It does charge about 3%-4% a day if your camera isn't capturing a lot or holds the charge you have by adding % daily. Just make sure your battery is charged at least 70% up. It will add but slowly unless you have direct sunlight. It may charge faster to 100%. I do not but it does charge in indirect sunlight. Make sure camera power source is turned onto solar. No more climbing ladders or leaning out a window. My charge has not dropped below 80%.

Awesome way to keep your battery powered eufy cams on forever! I have mt camera facing the street so it constantly goes off. It was wasting the battery way faster than what eufy stated it would kast but again i had rhe sensitivity maxed out because id rather be able to see if someone parks on front of my house and tries something odd. This solar panel has allowed me to keep the sensitivity maxed and the camera on 24/7. Its great!

Works very well. Smaller than I thought. I didn't want to screw it into the side of my building, so I used a camera mount with a clamp on it to clamp it to the edge of my gutters. It works very well. The cable management is very useful as well to tuck away the 13 feet of cable this thing has. One thing I wish the cable would be detachable. Not sure how the outside of the cable will hold up over time.
