After trying two of the Amazon Blink cams, which I returned almost immediately, I wasn’t sure how this Eufy system would fare, but we’ve been very happy with our Eufy RoboVac and various Anker sound products so we gave this a try…we have been impressed with how Anker stands behind their products.
We purchased the HomeBase3 for the local storage capability, along with two outdoor cams. All three items were easy to sync and charge. I like the Eufy Security app for its ease of use. We haven’t yet put a hard drive in the HomeBase, but may do so.
The cams are operating properly, sending notifications promptly. We are in a condo, so we don’t need to cover multiple angles. One cam is focused on the patio and I was able to set the notification areas to only cover the patio, thereby reducing unnecessary notifications of movements. The other cam is set to cover the lawn in front of our condo and patio and observe our car parked in front. It is operating perfectly and sending notifications within that programmed area.
The cam views are very clear and I can easily look at the clip and determine who is walking by with a dog, etc.
I like the programming available on this system and the fact that one camera has a spotlight which is motion activated and the other has a siren that can be programmed to go off on the cam or just the HomeBase, alerting us to someone coming up by our patio. The system also utilizes Geofencing for when we are away from home.
All in all, a good investment in security.
