      If you have an existing outdoor lifght that's covered eg: carport. Simple. But just to idiot proof it. Turn off the house power and then turn on the light switch for a few seconds to the old light (then turn it off and tape something over the switch) you are replacing before removing it. Tape the meter box closed with a big note on the door if you are worried about people turning the power back on. Might be worth while if you haven't spliced wires together before to have a few practice goes on some other wires before committing to cutting cables at the light. Let YouTube be your friend.

        Please don't do this. Electrical work needs to be done by a licensed electrician. Please don't risk your own life and lives of others by messing around with electricity.

            @MuddyClear: No you don't… Electrical work in Australia must be performed by an electrician. It's 100% illegal otherwise and if the house burned down or something than it's possible you'd be prosecuted.

            I know it may seem unfair or whatever but I think it's a good rule as it allows anyone who buys a house to know that "b0ng0CaT" hasn't been rewiring the house in his spare time to his own "standards".

              @Binchicken22: The ridiculous thing is:
              - Electricians are often apprentices and for example my recent new build had over 10 issues I picked up, some of which were fire hazards.
              - Electrical engineers for example are MORE qualified, but thanks to the electricians monopoly and requirement for apprenticeships in Australia, they legally can't do any work on their own homes.
              - By making it illegal, people who do want to do simple things themselves aren't provided with suitable education (i.e. they do it themselves AND don't know what they're doing).
              - Most US states allow DIY electrical work on their own home, some require a review by a qualified electrician

              I accept your statement that it's not legal, but I disagree that it's not legal due to SAFETY. It's not legal because of stupid regulations.

            @MuddyClear: You most definitely can not, it's illegal and extremely dangerous
            Electrician is a licensed trade and doing unlicensed work like so can have a you a hefty fine and god forbid if something went wrong because you can not issue a certificate of electrical safety would void any insurance claim
            All because you didn't want to cough up the $200 Max that it would take to install this flood light
            Your advice is irresponsible and under no circumstances should be taken into account

              @Cainop: Yes it's illegal and it's not worth your house burning down and it not being covered by insurance because of that. But doesn't mean it's hard or any more dangerous than a lot of house hold maintenance.

          • 2023 on 29/08/2021 - 15:50

            @MuddyClear: You also have the right to void any insurances that might have covered you in terms of burning your house down.

Yes you can go to a salon and get your hair dyed and you can also do it yourself risk free. The quality might not be great but hey, practice makes perfect. Most people can do their own tax but sure if you have a lot of assets or a business a tax agent could be the right way to go. And changing a shower mixer? Sure you shouldn't be charging people if you aren't qualified but hey. Lil old Mary down the road would be pleased that you just saved her a few hundred bucks for a 5 minute job.

                You may not be licenced to do the work so you shouldn't charge to do it. You sure as shit shouldn't be doing it professionally.

              • dickiee on 29/08/2021 - 23:40

                @jarrod: They don't exist unfortunately. If they did exist I'd hope you would have to get recertified every 2 years or so. I had to do my EWP ticket for work the other week and I find it nuts that you can do a 2 day course and then drive a mobile platform 14mtrs or more in the air. The worst part was our trainer told us the answers to the test and even had us fill out the dates where his signature should go so he didn't have too.

                Our boilermakers at work have to keep a log book which is signed off by our first class senior welder to certain Australian standards they are tested and qualified too otherwise their certification for eg: structural steel welding expires after 6 months and have to be recertified again. I think it should be the same for any high risk work.

      • AlanHB on 28/08/2021 - 22:17

        Unfortunately not in Australia. Maybe because our mains are 240V and twice as likely to kill you thank the USA.

        • dickiee on 28/08/2021 - 22:27
          +3

          It's the amps that kill you not the volts. And you need twice as many amps in 110v as you do 240v for the same application so 240v is actually safer.

          *edit - neither is safe. It only takes 900ma to kill yourself. 240v can carry more amps so it is more dangerous. All depends on the application.

          • AlanHB on 29/08/2021 - 09:45

              @Rogerwilco: Actually it's a lot lower. 100-200ma is all it takes theoretically but 900ma is closer to it Actually killing you. Look at it like you can be killed in a car crash doing 40k an hour but you are much more likely to be killed in an accident at 100k an hour.

        I'm not sure on this one because in WA you don't need a certificate if it's repair work apparently but you do if it's a new install. So if you broke your old floodlight and replaced it does that constitute as repair or a new install?

          It is typically set up to start recording and store when motion is detected, you can choose length of clip (up to 120 sec), interval trigger and notification type. If you go to the live camera there is a recording button and if pressed it will record and store the video in the photos on your phone/tablet but recording stops when you close the app.

    Found this valuable comment from Amazon by Jo NSW, hope it will helpful to some.
    "Overall, we're very happy with our purchase of this Eufy Security Floodlight Camera… it does what we need it to do - keep an eye on our driveway and front yard (without paying for subscriptions), and lights up the whole area nicely when motion is detected. An excellent deterrent to porch pirates, thieves, and trespassers.

    Advantages:
    * 2 × nice bright floodlights.
    * up to 4 "activity zones" can be set.
    * mains powered (no recharging batteries).
    * easy for the electrician to install.
    * no need for any "home base" station - can be used as a stand-alone device.
    * good (& adjustable) sensitivity to catch movement earlier.
    * nice wide angle to take in more of the yard.
    * no subscription service needed to access past events footage - this is one of the main reasons we chose Eufy above any of the other brands… we believe that you shouldn't have pay anything extra to view your footage history, especially after paying a couple hundred dollars (or more) for a security camera.
    * integrates well with Google Home - voice control works well to turn on/off the lights, cast to a Google hub or TV Chromecast.

    Areas for improvement:
    * no AI for "human detection" only - our other Eufy products have this handy function (which filters out any animal/car/wind activity), but not this floodlight camera.
    * no "privacy zones" function to block out the neighbours - you have to use the "activity zones" to filter out neighbour activity.
    * distance picture quality not as good as our other Eufy cameras, but definitely adequate.
    * would be handy to be able to link this camera to our existing home base, so that we could store more footage, but it has a decent 3Gb of available storage.

    Can you DIY installation? No.
    Would I buy it again? Yes.
    Does it function well? Yes.
    Is it perfect? No.
    Is it worth the money? Yes."

    i have a couple of Arlo units, cant recall exactly which ones now - they link to a base unit, which i believe is largely why it has a super annoying feature : delay between detection on camera and recording start on base unit (correct me if i'm wrong : camera detects, alerts base via wifi, they establish link, camera sends feed to base for storage…) .. all this contributes to a 2-3 sec delay .. to the point where the 'thing' that alerted the cam to start recording has largely passed thru the field of vision already, and the recording catches tail end only. So, in my setup, it's not very useful or helpful. I've read a fair bit about this being a known thing, so i've accepted it for the most part and tried to workaround it .. although results arent great.

    Anyway, the point is -with this Eufy having 4gb storage internally, this i imagine would negate this whole delay thing, right? it detects movement and starts recording to internal storage straight away?

    I see no other mentions of this Arlo-like delay, so i guess it's snappy response?

    Keen for feedback, comparitive to arlo or in terms of the speed to recording start.
    Thanks!

    I just price matched x1 unit at SCA, the sales person advised they were on sale at SCA at $200 atm. This is contrary to their price on the website - $299. In case no stock left at Bunnings / Amazon

    I have two of these and would recommended it.
    Doesn't need to be recharged.
    Fast and responsive for live viewing, recording and retrieving
    Big unit so is visible as a deterrent.

    Just be mindful of the positioning of the camera. If is mounted above an entrance door you might not be able to capture the face due to the higher angle unless the person looks up.

    I am correct in believing this does not connect to the Base Station.? Got a 2C kit and would like to connect it to that.

      Yes. It can't connect to Home Base.

      Edit: What benefit you would get if you can connect to home base?
