    Ok cameras but motion detection on these things is garbage. Goes off all the time on a windy day but won't detect a human walking towards it.

  • bogak on 13/11/2019 - 23:16

    Looking at the reviews the Argus 2 has static audio on recorded video, live stream is fine though.
    Anyone have any experience with these cameras?

    • heavyoctopus on 13/11/2019 - 23:34

      I have the uniden first gen (I believe the uniden and reolink are identical) and I'm happy with them. If that helps you make your decision.

      Edit: I should note I only paid 50 dollars per unit so my expectations were low.

      • takeshi on 13/11/2019 - 23:38

        Was the Uniden Wire-free ? If so, can you send me a link.

        • heavyoctopus on 13/11/2019 - 23:51

          Yes, got them in another deal thanks to ozbargain.

    Been using the Argus 2 for 5 months, pretty happy with it
    Has been occasionally offline but majority of times work
    Enabling the live stream with Google Home Display (eg. Google Nest Hub) is a bonus!

    The model I bought on Aliexpress is with the solar panel
    Paid around A$160 for both the camera and solar panel
    So far the camera is always keep battery charged at 100%

    Lastly, really like the wide angle of the camera
    Setting at the corner of my front door
    It is able to shot my door till the entire double garage door

    I have the Argus Pro which is the cheaper version.

    The goods :
    Battery lasts several months with one charge
    Image is very clear during the day
    It comes with strap that allow mounting w/o drilling holes in the wall, can mount on a tree or pole

    The bads :
    Image during night not as clear
    The alarm last only about 5seconds when triggered
    It starts to capture video a few seconds after it is triggered - if someone walks very fast pass the camera, the video won't catch the culprit

    I had some false alarms initially. After playing with the sentivity setting, I haven't encountered any false triggering.

    My camera is more than a year old. The newer cameras or the Argus 2 possibly might not have the same problems that I encountered

    I put 4 up with solar last Saturday. The fact that I didn’t have to run any wires I was the deal sealer for me. Strap it to a pole, a tree, down pipe whatever.

    Quality is pretty good and I’m happy with them as a whole.

  • Fvistr0 on 14/11/2019 - 11:25

    Can it be used with NVR software (i.e BlueIris)?

    • [Deactivated] on 14/11/2019 - 22:22

      Argus 2 no
      Basically any Reolink cameras that are battery operated will not support continues streaming (eg RTSP) due to battery consumption

  • maulmonk on 14/11/2019 - 12:10

    Does this have local storage? Or do we have to get a subscription like the Ring systems - that was the biggest turn off for me

    • krazynayba on 14/11/2019 - 12:17

      Can store recordings on a micro sd card and no subscription needed. I believe you need a subscription if you opt to use their cloud service for the recordings.

  • krazynayba on 14/11/2019 - 12:22

    My main gripe with the camera is that the connection is really inconsistent. I'll load the app and it'll often say 'connection failed' but then loads after a few re-tries. It also can take a long time to load a recording just to view it. Could be to do with me using a Google Wifi setup and the camera not supporting 5ghz. The puck it's connecting to isn't the primary but it's literally 2.5-3m from the door where the camera sits outside.

    Over all though it was good for the price. The battery lasts us 2-3 months before needing a recharge.

      I am having pretty bad experience when using smart devices with mesh network, tried both ASUS AIMesh and google wifi, some of my Lifx light keep dropping signals

      Eventually I give up google wifi and change my ASUS routers back to AP mode and everything works perfectly

  • namenotspecified on 14/11/2019 - 14:09

    There's only 1 solar panel left on Amazon and the codes don't work for the reolink website

    • takeshi on 14/11/2019 - 14:58

      The coupon for panels works only in Amazon.

      • [Deactivated] on 15/11/2019 - 10:05

        The link to the Amazon panels seems to go to a camera+panel combo.
        Perhaps the panels are OOS?

  • [Deactivated] on 14/11/2019 - 22:49

    So what's the best/cheapest way to record with these?
    Is it designed to record once it senses motion? Is there a way to have it record continuously and does anyone know how much recording time you'd get on a 100gb MicroSD for example?

    Thanks for the advice already given above, I just got one after reading people's thoughts.

    • snvl on 15/11/2019 - 07:02

      Not possible to record continuously

    • systmworks on 15/11/2019 - 07:48

      I dont think any battery model can record continuously - you would have to recharge the battery every few days (rather than months) which is far too inconvenient.

      And if you are going to run a power cable you may as well just run a network cable and use a 5 megapixel or 4K PoE camera.

      • [Deactivated] on 15/11/2019 - 08:09

        I thought with the solar power+battery combo you might be able to get continuous recording to a cloud or something over wifi.
        Thanks for heads up.
        So it basically just senses motion/movement then starts recording?

  • JDKC on 15/11/2019 - 06:56

    Does this actually come with free cloud storage? I don't think there is a mention of this on the website (unless I missed it!)

    If so, does it store both cameras or just one?

    • snvl on 15/11/2019 - 07:03

      No free cloud, sd card

    • takeshi on 15/11/2019 - 12:24

      Free cloud storage for 7 days for 1 camera

      • [Deactivated] on 15/11/2019 - 18:19

        wow, so you get free storage with 7 days of history and it resets? Or just a 7 day free trial?
        Thanks for the info, very much appreciated.

  • [Deactivated] on 15/11/2019 - 16:12

    Anyone got the link to the $37 solar panels? Doesn't seem to be working above.

    • takeshi on 15/11/2019 - 16:17

      Maybe, you can purchase it from the Reolink website itself as its out of stock in Amazon.

    • snvl on 15/11/2019 - 16:18

      OOS

    • TheStapler on 15/11/2019 - 20:51

      I brought the last one yesterday.

      • [Deactivated] on 15/11/2019 - 21:14

        I got 4 solar panels for 102.56$ USD shipped or 150 AUD roughly after using the NEW10OFF code so happy with that.
