All time low I think? Popular basic wired camera. I've been using one for a few years now, as a basic baby monitor and a fixed security camera.

There's a "buy 2 get 5% off" deal, which makes it $55.10 for 2 cameras, and a "buy 3 get 10% off" deal, which makes it $73.95 for 3 cameras. Both these seem to be stacking with each other. Deals applied automatically at checkout for me.

  • why wired?

    • Because it doesn't have built in battery and requires mains power.

    • CMIIW but it's more usual to refer to these as Wi-Fi cameras (most of the Tapo range), while a handful have ethernet connections and those are the "wired" ones (they are more popular for use with Frigate/HA because the stream is more stable). The "battery" ones are those that don't need mains power.

      • You are right, not sure what I was thinking! I also consider "wired" as ethernet rather than WiFi. :-) These aren't "wired" in those terms. Not sure why its stated on description.

  • Price matching OW.

  • Any deals on some basic POE (and ONVIF) cameras?

  • Now need to find deal on microSD card. Any deals on 64GB or higher?

    • I bought 5 or 6 32 gb one a few years back when i got these camera.. there is loop recording option so you dont need a big sized one unless keeping the footage is a must.

      • True but you'd want a high endurance card for that reason

    • yeah i'm on the look out for memory cards but gosh they've all gone up in price!

  • All time low I think?

    Same model I got 1+ year ago… 2 for $44. Been pretty happy with it. Works well with the Tapo Hub (H200)

    • What does the tapo hub do?

      • I ordered one yesterday from the previous Amazon posted deal so I haven't used it yet.

        But can store camera footage locally on the hub, has a chime so you can set up motion detection alerts.

  • All time low was 2 for $44. Pretty decent. Works well with frigate too.

    • Does it has rtsp feed?

  • Got one and used it while travelling. Works really well. Recommended

    • Whats the use case when travelling? Curious

  • Bought this as a baby monitor after a friend recommended it. Honestly, save yourself 100’s and get this.

    • I had an E1 pro fail on me after 6 years and decided to replace it with a E1 zoom. This new model has animal and person tracking which has been impressive. There is also a baby crying feature/alert which I haven't tested but if it's as good as tracking, I would highly recommend.

    • Works well for a cheap baby monitor at home definitely

      It does have one annoying flaw though - when you take it with you somewhere, it has to connect to a different WiFi network which takes about 5 minutes to set up everytime. And then the same thing again when you get home which gets pretty annoying.

      There is a workaround by permanently connecting it to your travel router, but you may as well just buy a real baby monitor at that point imo

      Also don't think this has a temperature readout which can be reassuring with a new bub

      • I use the same SSID / password on my travel router as at home. Phones and laptops connect seamlessly to this - are you saying the camera won't work this way?

        • Will work great if you have a travel router with the same SSID. Just pointing out that most people don't own a travel router

  • thanks op, bought 2 last time and loved 'em, but I'm gonna wait for it to come down more

  • How are these with Home Assistant? I'm reading mixed reports about whether Tapo still supports HA integration

    • I don't know if anything has changed (I keep all mine offline at the router level), but they work great with HA - I have ~10 around the place, some as occupancy sensors, some for external security.

      They do onboard event processing and propegate it to HA via the integration. If you keep the cameras offline, but use their app you can configure zones, otherwise you'll have human & movement detection - I used the zone detection isolating the mailbox to get a general "check mail" alert via HA. The app will work locally with offline cameras to view and configure, although not via any VPN settings I've tested. Home assistant dashboards work fine via VPN since it's streaming the data locally to HA first. Fancier events either don't throw external events or I didn't figure them out - things like dog barking, pet detected, baby crying. I installed the lot, they worked great with home assistant on their own, so I parked frigate for a project in the future.

      They do only handle two data locations at once - eg, I currently have them on SD + home assistant, but at some point either need to swap them to HA + NAS or SD + NAS and figure out how to stream to HA from NAS. I suspect SD + NAS wouldn't work great for HA viewing, as the files seem to be created in blocks that aren't written to storage till the end of the current block.

      • Thank you for the detailed reply!

    • I use this integration and it's been good: https://github.com/jurajnyiri/homeassistant-tapo-control

      I have a dashboard with live feeds and buttons for the view point presets along with automations to trigger motion detection when I'm home/away.

  • 3 for $73.95 as well. Buy 3 10% off.

  • I was really confused for a bit thinking wired was Ethernet but looks like this one is just powered using a plug. That’s too bad I’m looking for another Ethernet tp-link camera, I’ve found the wireless ones seem to drop off my UniFi UDM Pro all the time but the one Ethernet one I’ve got seems fine.

  • this + old phone = baby monitor.

  • can no longer buy 2

    • I just did…

  • What is the upgraded version of this? wireless preferred.

  • Any good baby monitor camera's on sale or good baby cams out there??!!

  • There is also UBank offer for $10 off if spending above $50.
    Bought 3 camera for $63.95 making it $21.31/camera.
    If buying 2, then it becomes $45.10, making $22.55/camera.

    If you don't have UBank account, it takes about 5 minutes and the digi card is available straightaway

  • Reckon it comes with a power adaptor?

    When you view the purchase options it says “2K 3MP Camera Only” for $29

    Then another option “2MP” for $39

    In the item details it does state Power Adapter.

    FYI if this helps someone, it’s not usb powered but AC to 9v DC

    • Looks like it comes with power adapter

    • Yes for sure

  • Dispatch in 1-2 months!~!!

  • Its doesn’t connect to 5GHz which is annoying
