Ring - Spotlight Cam Wire-free 2-Pack - White

I own 3 of these specific spotlight ring camera and love it. In day light it works great but at night it isnt bright at all. The night recordings arent very good without light and the light isnt very bright to help the camera out. Unless u have this low to the ground or add other lights around it to help light up an area at night, it isnt that effective. I mounted this by my front porch light so it does the job for my home day and night but again, If you have it mounted high, the light will not work well at all. In my back yard I added sensor solar lights that light up the area if anything is near so it supplements this ring camera to help get a better recording at night. The pictures show the camera at night without any light, during the day and at night with my other non ring solar porch light qith sensor. The ring cam caught a possum walking in our back yard. Without the additional light it gets really grainy and hard to see. I have the same driveway cam see day and night pics. Hands down, love the ring apps. Watch videos of the various settings. They also have a ring community where you can share info like "hey someone tried to break into my car" and actually share footage or just messages. U can see when someone reports occurrences in your neighborhood too.

Bought it since got a discount. I have two already installed and this would be the third. In addition, I bought the associated solar panel since I do not have to charge the battery. The solar panel keeps the battery at 100% charge. That has been my experience with the existing other two Ring security cameras. I really like the view that these cameras provide, especially when I am away from home.

Really nice, but the night vision dosen't work as well as the day at picking people up. I have a streetlight and at night it won't pick up people walking the road like the day. (Picture is nice though). But if they come 1/4 of the way in my yard it will pick them up. It may just be a settimg. It lets you make a fence it watches for. Also I have it set to go off, when it picks up people. Also it has a bit of latency by about 10 seconds to notify that there is someone there. Which may be my internet wifi coverage. Spotlight is bright, but if you really want to light the yard up. Then I suggest getting the camera with flood lights.

We installed the spotlight camera in the backyard to watch people approaching the back porch and the said gate. It took a while to get it positioned just right to pick up someone entering the side gate. We also have a tree near the porch which was constantly triggering it from the wind or birds. After much adjustment we finally got it dialed in. The battery life in the spotlight cam seems shorter so we bought a second battery. It works good now, but we probably need to get a second one or mount it on a pole to get a proper view of all access points, currently there's a blind spot behind it.

I agree with the previous poster most issues in these reviews are people wanting something for nothing. You need to familiarize yourself with Wifi mainly. Almost every issue I have read in reviews can be avoided simply fixing your crappy wifi, Not getting alerts, black screen, pixelating, delays in recording etc. Just because the cam has some wifi reaching it doesnt mean a thing. Its outside and the average home's wifi is too weak. Unless it is 5-10ft away. I too had all the issues stated here until we had to replace our router. (nothing to do with the camera). The new router was installed closer to the camera then we had to add the camera and this solved most issues. The videos are in color, and if installed properly not too high you get perfect facial pictures. If you have it pointed towards trees or plants you get too many alerts. The app lets you choose the alert frequency. Move the camera around, experiment. My cam is mounted aprox. 6ft high for clarity I will post a photo. Sure a bad guy could damage it but by the time they reach it the video is already saved to the cloud vs installing it higher out of reach but not seeing the bad guys face only an angled head shot. Explore the app. You can set the camera to turn on the light at night when motion is triggered or not. It is very very bright. I think the big issue here is the Ring Company not going into better detail in the installation. You def. need to check wifi signal for any wifi camera system. Photo is a screenshot taken from Ring video at night with the spotlight . There is no additional lighting on. Motion zones set to 3/4 and installed at 6' high. (yes that is remainder of yard sale not put away yet lol) Cons: The battery door needs to be re-designed. It is extremely hard to close properly. By design they say however it is a huge issue.

Cameras work great and I can network them in with the other cameras so if one camera is triggered the lights on all the cameras turn on. Yhe only problem is that the batteries dont last very long. Less than a day. Started to charge day and use at night

Very impressed by the range of space it covers, bought with the solor panel and I have it connected to a tree in my backyard. Don’t have to worry about charging batteries. I have to batteries installed. Will be buying for the fro yard next.

This is my first wireless ring camera, the setup was super easy (as always) and just like my wired cameras I get a great image and all the same features. I was in need of a camera to watch my kids clubhouse and hardwiring was not an option, I am very satisfied with my wireless camera.
