I've been using this camera for a while now, and I'm seriously impressed. Especially considering the price, it's a steal!
I needed a camera to keep an eye on my patio door, but I didn't have a power outlet nearby. A detachable solar panel wasn't an option because of my HOA rules. And to make things even tougher, my wife's got a ton of plants and trees, so finding a spot with direct sunlight was a challenge.
I finally settled on a spot under the covered part of my backyard. I figured the sun's angle would give me about an hour and a half of direct sunlight each day, but I wasn't sure if it would be enough. Even so, I decided to give it a shot.
The camera itself is really well-built. It's all metal, heavy, and has a built-in solar panel on top. The mounting bracket is super sturdy too. Setup was a breeze using the app on my phone. It took me less than a minute to get it connected to my Wi-Fi.
I was surprised by how well the solar panel worked. I spent a month on vacation, and the camera never ran out of battery. Even with some cloudy days, it kept going. In fact it is almost a week I'm back and so far it is still going, no need to recharge the battery, just solar power !
The image quality is 2K, which is good enough for me. I don't need 4K or 8K just to watch my door. Plus, the night vision is surprisingly good. It can easily illuminate the area around my door from a distance.
Overall, I'm really happy with this camera. It's a great value for the price, and it does the job perfectly.
I’ve attached some pictures to show the image quality, the zoom capability and the night vision.
The first one is the normal door view, the second showing the digital zoom and the third the night vision (the light on the window is the night vision of another camera I have)
