  • Need electricians to wire?

    • Comes with power adaptor much like a router. No need for electrician. It is much much better than battery powered cameras

      • Need a power plug nearby then. Was thinking just all all wireless with solar. Just not sure if it will last

        • Depends on what your needs are. My past experience with wireless Reolink cameras are that events are always triggered too late. If someone run or walk very fast, there is a very good chance the wireless camera videos won't show the person's face

          • @Red Terence: problem is outdoor no powerpoint. so need to pay more for electricians then

          • @Red Terence: I've got a couple of the Tapo C410's (battery + solar panel) as well as these ones. The battery ones are as you describe (they mostly miss the start of a detection) b/c they use a movement sensor to fire up the camera & start recording, which causes the delay. I believe this method uses a lot less power, which allows the cameras to run for much longer without depleting their batteries. These one that are plugged into the wall are brilliant. They are constantly awake & cacheing the feed, allowing them to keep 5 or so seconds prior to a detection event, plus an extra minute of footage after its over so you get the whole exchange.

  • It can be hardwired into a network, or plugged in & connect to your wifi. It also records locally to an SD Card (sold seperately) which you can view from your phone via the Tapo app, no subscription required. I found it quick & easy to setup. The notifications are almost instantaneous, whether you are at home or away. You can configure what types of events you want to notifications for, I find it quite flexible.

    • I'm guessing it still requires a power outlet or is it PoE?

      • Whilst it has an ethernet connection, it does need a power outlet. Reasearching further, Tapo advises that you can achieve it by adding an external PoE Splitter.

  • Was $59 now it's $78
    I'm not sure op understand what bargain means

    • Yeah, fair call. When I originally found the cameras on Amazon, they were advertised at $59. In the 15 mins it took me to check around other sites & get the post up, the price had shifted to $78, so I had to adjust the post. I suspect $50 might have been an ATL?

  • $70 is the normal price for C320WS

    C325WB is what actually want to buy,

    Key Differences
    Night Vision Technology: The C325WB acts as a "low light king" with its specialized F1.0 super-aperture lens and larger sensor. It gathers enough ambient light to provide full-color video even in pitch black without relying on harsh spotlights or infrared. The C320WS uses older IR tech which gives you standard B&W footage in the dark.Frame Rate & Resolution: The C325WB processes video at a smoother 20 frames per second at full resolution. The C320WS is capped at 15fps.Motion Detection: The ColorPro C325WB is much better at capturing moving objects at night without the blurry "ghosting" effects that are common on the C320WS.

    • Completely agree with this, C325WB are much better, even at a higher price point. I have recently bought some at ~$85 each on sale. My original post had these C320WS at $59 each which I think it's great value, although I was too late in posting before the price jumped. The Camelcamelcamel link above confirms the price drop, so if anyone is interested in either of these, it's worth setting yourself a price drop alert there the next time they go on sale.
