3MP Indoor Wi-Fi Camera (2K), Surveillance Camera, Night Vision, Real Time Notifications, Cloud Storage and MicroSD up to 256GB, Works with Alexa and Google Assistant C210, ‎‎bianco

I've had 7 of these these cameras installed for just over two months using the Tapo H500 hub, and overall they are very good. I found both the Hub, cameras and solar panels easy to install, and the app is clear and also easy to set up and use. That said, I ran into some issues early on, which I'll detail later, but they were all "fixable". Picture and sound quality is very good, even in dull daylight. I use the infrared setting at night to save battery life, and while the picture quality is good enough to see what is happening and to identify what people are doing / wearing (roughly) you can't make out faces or similar detail levels. The smart detection isn't all that good - I have had "person detected" alerts when squirrels are running up a tree, but if you set the detection area carefully and set detection mode to "person" and "pet" only, and turn off "all motion" alerts I find you don't get that many false alerts. The cameras regard foxes as pets, but that is understandable. Three of the cameras are in "high traffic" areas and four around the sides and back of the house (low traffic) and so far the cameras have used about 70GB of the 970GB available on the 1TB SSC hard drive I put in the hub. At this rate the drive will take about a year to fill up. Once I got a couple of wrinkles sorted, battery life is excellent. Six of the cameras are still showing 100% battery after two months despite the dull, wet winter we have had. One of the cameras is located at the edge of the Wi-Fi / Tapo hub network range and this seems to cause it to drain the battery much more, particularly when it is cold. It is currently on 62% after two months, but it dropped from c90% to c70% in less than a week when we had the very cold week in early January. It has since stabilised, so even this camera battery should last about 6 months, and hopefully a sunny spring will keep it going longer (although another cold snap will probably cause another big drain). Three of the cameras/panels are located where trees obscure the sun, so I bought the larger A200 solar panels to use there. I'm not sure I needed to bother as all three are still at 100% battery after over two months. The one issue I have run into is that it can take one or two camera "resets" to get them to work properly. In three cases when I set the camera up and placed it well within Wi-Fi and/or Hub range the camera either (i) kept dropping off the network and saying it was out of range, or (ii) randomly started to chew through battery for no reason. I have found that if you dismount the camera, make sure you are close to your router, then "hard" reset the camera using the little reset button and set it up from scratch again, it then usually works perfectly. One camera took two "hard resets" to get this result, but I got there in the end. Why the cameras sometime do this I don't know, but if you run into either of these problems (and looking at the reviews they seem fairly common), I do recommend resetting the camera and starting again, it usually sorts the problem. Overall I now have a great home CCTV system that works as advertised with battery life better than I expected, so I'm very happy - it just takes a little effort to get there !

Firstly I have to mention Amazon Prime delivery, ordered 3pm delivered 8pm same day! 👏👏 The camera is easy (ISH) to setup, once you've registered with a TP link account you can share access to it with other registered users/family etc. The picture quality is very good, installation is also easy with options including a magnetic mount. The solar panel is very good at keeping the battery topped up. Recommended 👍

My initial concern before I bought this kit was battery charge during the winter and waterproof. Guess what' ever since I bought this, which is like 4 months now, it's always got full charge every day. And this was during the winter Nov to March. Perhaps its the location of the garden getting enough sunshine everyday. And I've never had any problem with water ingress into the kit. The camera has got excellent picture quality, senses movement without any problem. It is so easy and straight forward to install. Though pairing the camera with my phone, in order to set it up proved a little bit of a challenge. But that could be because I have an S9 plus Samsung phone which was 6 years old. When I initial bought it, you could not connect this camera to use the Tapo Hub memory, which came with my Tapo camera front doorbell. However, 2 months later, an update allowed the use of the Hub. But I've already bought the memory card anyway. Perhaps they should have released the software update before I spent 32quid on memory card I'm no more using. The Tapo app is one of the reasons why this kit is an experience. Navigating through the app is so easy and uncomplicated. Overall, this is a good kit in terms of quality, performance, robustness and full waterproof. I wish I knew and had gotten this camera years ago.

My second tapo camera. 1st set up on wifi, second hard wired. Either option is working really well. You can run these without having to pay for a storage plan by using a micro sim. Very easy to set up and picture quality is excellent. Infra red recordings when dark , therefore black and white when dark. Easy to set up recording boundaries. Notifications excellent, within 5 seconds of video capture.

Brilliant product, easy setup and well worth buying. The power lead is a little short but I made it work but if you have a long run then you may need to buy and extension lead which seems readily available. I would absolutely recommend this product.
