SolarCam 1080p Security Camera Wireless Outdoor- Battery Power with Solar, Person Detection, Subscription-Free Local Storage or Optional Cloud, Works with Alexa & Google Assistant, C402 KIT

This camera works wonderfully and exceeds my expectations. The setup is easy. The connection is crisp. The storage allows a micro sd and has an easy initial charging cable. The video quality is pristine and clear. It's adjustable to ensure a good view. The tapo app allows for notifications. The only con I have is I can't setup for continois recording. Great product overall

The camera is an excellent product for the price. It was extremely easy to install, setup and operate. I love the night vision clarity, the alarm capability and the zoom in capability. The sound is exceptional and operation is very easy on my iphone. Also love the solar power and no battery or wiring worries.

I did a lot of research to find the perfect security cameras. I have to admit, I am very impressed. Solar powered, weather proof, motion detection, great night vision, records to SD card (and you do NOT HAVE to have cloud service). Not to mention the setup was super easy with all the instructions right on the app. Also the app is very easy to navigate and understand and even adding other users to the household was super simple. I bought two of them and can't wait to grab more. I have already told everyone at work about these. Great functionality, easy to operate, simple app, all of that at a great price. I love them.

Well designed and well made. Two bases additional cable provided so there is an option to install as one or unit or tow separate the camera and solar panel by several feet. All the parts needed for intallation either way are provided, including adhesive templates to stick on the way to ensure the drilled holes are perfectly positioned. I charged the battery, connected the camera to my network, and tested before the install. Was very easy. After mounting all I had to do was turn it on and wait for it to say "Camera On". Video quality is good, camera and panel are staying in position during high winds. There are 3 options for video storage - cloud, hub, or sd card. Alarms, alerts, detection types, and detection zones are all configurable and seem to work well.

Great for the price. Easy to setup and install. Image is ok. Motion detection range is just ok. I have 8 of these cameras so I do recommend. The Tapo ecosystem is good to work with. I have the H500 hub and a few of the 4k cameras. The cameras work well with sd cards or the hub. My only concern with this kit is the solar charging. All of my cameras say that the solar is not hooked up yet most do charge. It also doesn't tell you how much charge it is getting.

I’ve had the Tapo SolarCam 1080p Outdoor Wireless Security Camera installed for over a month, and it has exceeded my expectations. Setup was quick and straightforward, and it’s been completely reliable since day one. The solar panel performance has been especially impressive. Even mounted on a north-facing side of the house, it consistently charges the camera back to 100% every day. I haven’t needed to manually recharge it once. The 1080p video quality is sharp and clear, and the person detection feature works accurately without excessive false alerts. For the cost, this camera offers outstanding value and performance. I would absolutely purchase it again.

Update after 2 months of use: The camera failed. TPLink agreed to a return and replacement but with one catch - customer pays return shipping. So they sell you a defective camera and it costs you almost half of what you paid for the camera to ship it back and have it replaced with one that actually works. Not much of a warranty and not the best quality. Would not buy again for these reasons. Update after a week of use: Still going strong. The person detect and vehicle detect trigger recording reliably about 95% of the time. More good news - the Android app runs on a laptop PC through Bluestacks so you can use a Windows PC to control and view the camera. One odd thing was that the recorded videos disappeared briefly when viewing with a PC but later returned. They always showed up on an android phone so they were always there. Finally, the solar charging feature and some of the other advanced battery use monitoring features turned out to be beta versions that appear but don't work yet. All in all, still a great camera. Hardware: The camera is sensitive and the image sharp. The method for sealing the solar panel cable to the camera is just a rubber boot which looks like one day it will leak. The camera can illuminate night scenes with IR for a B&W picture or with white light for a color picture. Incredibly, all of the mounting hardware is high quality stainless steel which is quite unusual for such a product. The App: A little quirky but very much full featured. By quirky I mean, for example, having the delete option for video clips located under the category "downloads" which makes no sense. By full featured I mean that it offers a lot of useful tools such as an amazing battery monitor that includes current state as well as graphical displays of battery usage by day and solar charging by day. Another useful feature lets you define the areas of the scene to which the detection (recording) algorithm will apply. You can also set the time of day window during which recording can occur. It can be set to only record if people or vehicles are detected. Most of the features are local and do not require any kind of monthly fee. Only had it running for a couple of days but so far it looks like a great product for the money.

Good product. Solar keeps camera at 100% charge. Clear pictures and easy app to navigate.

Facile à installer. Se recharge très bien grâce au panneau. Qualité vidéo parfaite
