Cost Effective quality solution
Several thoughts, initially I selected TAPO 402 camera(s) because of a somewhat positive experience with TAPO extender(s) made by the same company as well as door bell camera – also same company. Mostly very happy with the purchases. The camera provides exceptional picture clarity. Installation was straight forward, the batteries were about 50% – 60% upon arrival. Manual says to let them charge for about 7 hours, mine charged in about 4.5 hours. included charger and cables worked well with NO ISSUES. Mounting the cameras was not a problem. Field of view was very good (especially the depth). I already had some experience with the app from 2 previous products. The different detection modes was EXTREMELY NICE. A MAJOR POSITIVE point was that everything can be accomplished with LOCAL (on the camera) storage by using a MICRO SD CARD (up to 512 GB).Recall and play back of the locally stored audio & video works well at home as well as away from home!All of the component cameras integrate very nicely with in the TAPO app and they play well together.You get 30 days free cloud storage with each individual camera (including the previously mentioned door bell camera — via an included HUB for the door bell). NO SUBSCRIPTION !! 🙂 🙂 :-)Here are I few things I wish TAPO would have done a bit better:PROVIDE LIVE PERSON to PERSON Technical support (not a fan of EMAIL or CHAT support – TOO LONG DELAY for REPLY).MORE secure mounting of cameral to stand — Maybe some type of security bolt or lock (??), it is too easy to remove the camera from the mount.Somewhat more user friendly NAMING CONVENTIONS – within the app.IMPROVE THE INTEGRATION & FUNCTION(s) WITH ALEXA — This was a major selling point for me.It took the better part of 3 hours on the phone with LIVE (person to person) AMAZON (technical) support to enable ALEXA to recognize the door bell camera and 2 of the other out side cameras, a major saving grace of that technical support session was that the agent was able to screen share with me through my phone, everything was thoroughly validated and secure for the screen share.MAYBE TAPO could offer this in the future — perhaps 30 days worth from initial installation .Was eventually able to get ALEXA to announce (and show) when some was at the door.The TAPO cameras work very well with their app, ALEX (app) works very well with its show hardware!Getting BOTH platforms to play NICE with each other was a chore, BUT, in the end well worth it!Happy with all of the cameras definitely plan to purchase at least one more. I am glad that I purchased them and expect that they will last a long time.I have not been compensated in ANY way for this review

Great Camera
The image/video quality is pretty good, and I personally think this is the best outdoor camera for the price. Since you don’t need to pay a subscription, notifies every movement, battery is good, connects to your phone instantly, and easy to use. The nightvision is also pretty good, way better than buying somthing like arlo.

High build quality, great pics and easy set up!
This camera is really nice compared to others in its price range! Easy connectivity, great functionality and build quality. We’re looking forward to applying it to our security system. Recommend.

GREAT SOLAR Camera for outdoor use!
I really think this camera is fantastic for the money spent on it during prime day. A little over 30$ and it does a great job! Weatherproof rated, solar panel powered, and great features for a budget security camera! I am beginning to really like TP-Link products, and I believe they are doing a great job with their features, and accessibility/ease of use. I will definitely buy again! Highly recommend!

Worth it.
Easy to install, easy to set up, great picture. Only issue I have is that the night vision is terrible unless there is a fairly strong light source nearby. Otherwise, a great camera and I am buying another for my carport.

Great Camera, but not without issues.
Let me begin by saying this is an absolutely great camera, especially for places that you may not have an option to connect a power source. The mount and housing feels very well made with durable materials and the instructions are fairly simple.The base for the camera can be removed from the mount and installed separately from the solar panel. a 12ft USB-C extension cable is included, along with a blank cap for the mount to cover the area where the camera base should be. Additionally the packaging includes 2 additional o-rings for the USB-C cable, 2 gasket for the power connection on the camera, and 2 plugs for the screw holes on the mount.Setup is like any other Tapo/Kasa device, power on, wait for the orange/green led, add device to respective app, and connect to WiFi. Picture quality is amazing, voices are clear, and there are plenty of settings to configure to meet your needs. One option I wish it had would have been 24/7 continuous recording, but due to the drain it would put on the battery I completely understand why itâs motion based recordings instead. With a 32gb MicroSD, I was able to get about 11 days of recordings and only used about 3gb.As great as a camera it is, it has one major issue, which I can see a lot of people complaining about. The camera without the mount or ball joint is 8.7oz / 246.64g. The base of the ball joint is a hard plastic and does not have a rubber pad inside to provide some resistance. When mounting the camera in a horizontal position, the weight causes the camera to tilt downward. A temporary fix I used a 3/4in piece of a 1/4in wide rubber band, rolled it up and stuffed it into the collar of the ball joint. This provides enough resistance to keep the camera up, This same issue also exists on the solar panel ball joint, but because the panel is light weight, it doesnât move. Iâd be more worried about it come winter and a heavy snow fall. Another less significant issue is with the o-rings on the USB-C connector. It comes off very easily. I actually lost the one that came installed on it, within 5min of removing from the packaging. Thankfully there are additional o-rings included.All in all, as I stated, itâs a great setup that works really well. The issues seem to be minor enough that could be worked out by simply modifying the base of the ball joints. Hopefully TP-Link can work that out and supply us with a permanent fix.

TP-Link Tapo SolarCam 2K
“The TP-Link Tapo SolarCam 2K is a fantastic outdoor security camera! The 2K QHD resolution provides crystal-clear images, and the 150° super-wide field of view covers a large area. The solar panel base ensures uninterrupted power, even on cloudy days, and the free person, vehicle, and pet detection helps reduce false alerts. It’s easy to install and offers both local storage and cloud options. A great addition to my home security setup

Pra quem usava uma xing ling de 100 reais da Shopee, essa daqui é uma divindade. Campo de visão amplo, cores boas, aproveitei e comprei um repetir descente tb da TPLink e não tive problemas ainda, sempre muito rápida a conexão ao abrir o app e mover a câmera. A câmera noturna achei muito boa, se passar mt rápido pode ser que não veja tão bem, mas da para ver feições que se for necessário caçar a pessoa pode ajudar uns 80%, comparada a anterior minha, 200% melhor nesse quesito. Instalação bem rápida, o problema que achei foi a troca de Wifi, o meu repetidor chegou depois e tive que trocar o Wifi cadastrado, ai tu tem que subir na escada, tirar a tampinha da camera, tirar parafuso, para ai conseguir reiniciar ela e recadastrar, acho que o app poderia ter alguma forma mais fácil de fazer isso, pq se for um idoso ou muito trampo de mexer na câmera, é um pé no saco mesmo.Outro contra é o app do computador, no meu caso Windows, achei bem ruim, a câmera perde a qualidade no pc, horrivel a conexao para se mover, a xingling eram bemmm melhor nesse quesito. Para quem tiver dificuldade em achar um app, uso o iSpy v7.2.6.0 . Muito ruim, inacreditável uma empresa nao fazer um app simples para conectar, mover, qualidade de video igual ao do celular, mas ok, faz parte. O app no celular é muito bom, notifica mais do que eu acho necessário, bem sensÃvel, mas muito boa a qualidade e manuseio, única coisa que peca é realmente a troca do Wifi como disse.Som bom, microsd bem fácil de colocar e armazena certinho.Outra coisa legal do app do celular é os modos que aparecem no print da última foto, vc salva os modos que quer pré-ajustado e quando clica mt rapidamente já vai para a posição, curti muito, a chinesa tinha isso mas o app coloca logo de cara e é muito mais rápido, rapidasso mesmo. Curti muito.Se a Amazon colocar a venda a de 2k em uns 600 por ai eu iria preferir. Mas pagar 400 reais nessa daqui não acho ruim não, acho bem bom o custo beneficio, eu compraria novamente, mas vou aguardar a de 2k. Acho que em segurança não devemos economizar.

Die Kamera macht super Bilder und Videos.Auch im Nachtsicht Modus. Die Kamera kann ganz leich, entweder aufrecht, seitlich, oder über Kopf montiert werden. Zur Einrichtung der Kamera muss man sich einfach die Tapoo App runterladen und kann sie ganz leicht einrichten. Die Personen Erkennung und Bewegungserkennung funktioniert auch super. Man kann die Empfindlichkeit z.b. bei Schneefall runterdrehen. Es besteht auch die Möglichkeit der personenverfolgung, falls man einen gröÃeren Bereich abdecken will. Preis / Leistung Top
