I bought a couple of these no hassle cameras. They have everything included to set them up. Just charge the batteries up for 7.5 hours, mount and position them and the solar panels and they're ready to deliver video to your smartphone. They are motion activated, capable of a two way conversation, and have lots more features which I will not take time to mention for this short review, but I will say they are a quality product and my batteries stay consistently 100% charged by the included solar panels.

We bought this camera to catch a glimpse of wildlife that might pass through our backyard. The camera coverage is reasonable, good resolution from the camera. Setup instructions and App were easy to work with. The camera was up and running within 10 minutes. Bought an aftermarket solar panel which works great with this camera.

So I bought one I installed it set it up in about half hour. The instructions are very simple to follow. I absolutely love this camera. The quality is excellent. The picture is outstanding. It actually works better than my ring. Floodlight camera. Much better picture quality. The solar panel is nice. It is not too big or bulky and it works awesome and keeps my battery completely charged. I love it so much. I bought another one and that one worked just as good as the original. If you’re looking for a good solar powered battery camera give this one a try. It is definitely worth the money.

“I recently installed these security cameras, and I am extremely satisfied with their performance. The video quality is excellent, both during the day and at night, thanks to the clear night vision. The setup was easy, and the mobile app allows me to monitor everything in real-time from anywhere. The motion detection alerts are accurate and helpful for keeping my home secure. The cameras are also weatherproof, making them perfect for both indoor and outdoor use. Overall, a great investment for anyone looking for reliable and high-quality security cameras!”

The TP-Link Tapo SolarCam C402 Kit is an excellent choice for home security. The 1080P video quality is clear, even at night with color night vision. The solar panel keeps the camera charged, so I don’t have to worry about batteries.I really like the person/vehicle detection, which avoids unnecessary alerts. It was easy to set up, works perfectly with Alexa, and offers flexible storage options with SD or cloud storage.Overall, it’s reliable, easy to use, and a great value. Highly recommend!

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 it’s 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 doesn’t move. I’d 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, it’s 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.

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 sensível, 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.

I purchased this wireless remote camera as I needed a unit that was completely wireless, with no plug in electricity necessary. The other popular wireless remote cameras all seem to need a module that must be plugged into an electric outlet to transmit the picture. The TP-Link Tapo camera directly connects to a local wifi network (yes, it does need to connect to local wifi to be able to monitor remotely) but works solely from it's own battery.I installed this on my boat at a marina to keep an eye on the boat over the winter. Camera setup was easy, as was the solar panel (with the included very long cord! I purchased the camera with solar panel kit). It connected to the marina wifi without difficulty, and I can check on the boat from home. Recently I was traveling and had no problem connecting to the camera as long as I had cellular service! The solar panel has kept the battery charged at 100% with no issues.The alert options work well - I set the 'person' alert, and when I occasionally go to the boat to check on it, I immediately get an alert on my phone that a person has been detected on the boat and the available video it records is very clear. I record to a 128gb installed in the camera, I didn't purchase a cloud subscription.This TP-Link Tapo camera has more than exceeded my expectations.
