Tapo 2K Security Camera Outdoor Wired, IP66 Weatherproof, Motion/Person Detection, Built-in Siren w/Night Vision, Cloud/SD Card Storage, 2-Way Audio, Works w/Alexa & Google Assistant C310

Don't expect some big tech review here, I just don't care that much about all that. Got this thig back in May and just now got it up and going in August. It's purpose is to watch over my birds for predators or whatever niffy might come around. I'll say this, it was super easy to install and get up and running. Cut the power cord and spliced in wire to tap into my 12vdc bus in the solar shed. Connected to my TP-Link wireless router and it's off to the races. Installed a 512 SD card, skip the cloud junk. Plenty of local storage for my needs. Image quality is awesome! Day and night. May add a little led tag lite to get color at night. Don't like the idea of running the light that comes in the camera all the time. Might be fine but still.... Very little lag in video or audio. Movement detection and alarming is spot on. Caught my kitty climbing around on top of one of my runs and a big ole coon walking by a bit later about 4am. Coyote movement is what I really want to know. Their days are numbered around here, killing my birds and wiping out the fawns. Even the grown deer are taking a beating with scars all over them. I may dig around in the settings and refine some stuff but right out of the box it pretty much does what I want. Only thing is now is that I need about three more of them. Maybe I can get those and install them a little quicker this time around.

I bought the 2 pack Tapo security camera last month as a upgrade from a similar camera. On my review of that order, I noted that I planned to expand my system with more cameras in the future . About a month has gone by and my feelings for this system are still the same. I added this OUTDOOR camera to replace an older camera on my driveway. The COLOR night time view literally blew me away. At first , I started getting too many false alerts picking up cars on the road. I then made a "BOX" for the motion sensing that didn't include the road...Boom..No more false alerts.. I did notice if I enable the " AI "mode for vehicles..It still picks up the cars that I didn't include in my motion area I chose...it seems Like it overrides the box and looks at the whole screen. This was easily fixed by disabling the AI for AUTOs. Setup was a breeze , just adding it to my other 2 Tapo cameras . Details are clear and I can easily read a license plate anywhere in my driveway. Alerts are sent almost instantly , and I will probably activate the free trial on this camera for offline storage. Remember to buy the 256 gb SD card when you buy these cameras. 2 screws must be removed to put the SD card in , and they are tiny tiny screws. Once you insert the card , you will be good to go. The software will format the card , and you can choose 24/7 recording , or motion activated recording. Record the motion clips that you want , save them to memory , then go to memory and you can view , download , or delete the clips to your phone. You can do all of this without a subscription. It's a great addition to my security system , and I plan to add the Battery Powered cameras in time so I can view my backyard . Tapo has proven to be a great family of security cameras for all situations. Whether it a baby monitor , outdoor , wireless , battery powered, or motion tracking , this collection is great and all work together with one well written ,easy to use app. Keep up the great work Tapo ! UPDATE : After a couple of months use , I thought I would add to this review. Now , someone user left a Lengthy review and 90 percent of it is user error. You can EASILY record video to your phone from the SD card without removing anything. If you get a notification , So .... The way to save videos does actually vary between my indoor and outdoor cameras . The Indoor cameras have 3 dots after the clip , and if you select the 3 dots it gives you the option to DOWNLOAD the clip . Selecting this DOWNLOADS the clip to the MEMORY of your SD CARD ... Then if you look up toward the top of the screen .. You will be able to select " Memory " and all the clips you downloaded will be here .... Selecting the clip you want will give you the option to delete , view , or even Download this video to you phone . NOW ... the Outdoor camera has changed a little bit on how to do this without a subscription....When you are watching the selected video , you must press the little camera button while viewing the video , then press it again to stop the recording ... It will the save the clip you recorded to the " MEMORY " section of the SD CARD.. At this point you can click on the clip to view , delete , or DOWNLOAD it to your phone! It's 2 easy steps to save it on your phone...Once you know how to do it , it's very easy....Don't believe the users that say you can't save clips to your phone .. Now for an actual small issue I had . My outdoor camera has an occasional issue ...I attribute this to the distance from my router. Last week , the spotlight stayed on for a couple days???...I unplugged the unit..Rebooted it...multiple times and it was not working correctly... I will admit I was a little upset..but I decided to do a factory reset by pushing the reset button that's in the SD card cover...That was the best thing I could have done ..I reconnected it to my app ..And the camera is now working correct again.... No dropouts , Motion Spotlight works , and I am happy it was just a factory reset that it took to fix it .. It's been working good for 2 weeks straight now ...We did have a power outage a couple weeks ago , and I think that may have messed my outdoor camera up a bit ..Overall...I still think it's the best budget camera system you can get.. No monthly fees and still does everything I want it to do . After months of use, I came up with the following way to set my camera up as the best for my driveway ,and sidewalk . I DISABLED motion sensing , as ANY motion including trees , shadows , distant cars , would always trigger alerts , I disabled the vehicle sensing as it would alert me of all the cars on the road .. I set " Person " alert and this picks up all " people " riding or walking and works perfect ... The other setting I enabled was " Line crossing " and made a line that gives me a notification if anything crosses the middle of my driveway . The combo of Line crossing , and Person alert has made this system work the way I wanted it to .. I see my driveway , and the road but do not get alerts for the traffic on the road .. Only if they pull in my driveway ... The person detection seems to work great when a person is walking anywhere ... It took a little bit of playing to reduce false alerts ... But now that I have it tweaked out , it is an amazing system to have.

I recently installed two of these cameras. I wired one to a router and used Wifi for the other. The installations went well although the one installed over rough stucco took a little extra time to make sure the holes for the anchors were precisely drilled. The provided template didn't stick to stucco so I taped it to the wall and marked the holes in the stucco with a punch. The quality of the images is excellent and the app is fairly intuitive. My one issue occurs when I'm continuously streaming the image from either of the cameras to an iPad I bought specifically for that purpose. After a few minutes the image freezes and grays out with a message to "Tap to refresh." Tapping the screen does restore the image, but I can find nothing in the documentation, forums or FAQs that explains this issue. Is it a bug in the Tapo app? Is it a "feature?" All WiFi signals are good. I don't want to have to keep tapping the screen to monitor my cameras. Responses from TP-Link or other users are welcomed. Update August 11, 2023 I emailed TP-Link support about the problem I documented above. Their Technical Support team could not have been more responsive. Over a period of several weeks they asked me to collect and forward system logs from the camera (Micro SD card required which must be removed from the camera to access the logs) and logs from the app. They provided detailed instructions on how to collect the logs. At the end of that time they provided access to a beta version of the app to which they had added a fix, again providing instructions for accessing the beta. It worked without any interruption in viewing the cameras. I was told that the fix would be released in the Tapo 3.X app with no specific release date. However, I recently installed the latest release, 2.17.2 ("Fixed some bugs and improved stability.") which appears to have the fix included since I've experienced no "Tap to refresh" interruptions over several days. I'm changing my rating on the camera from 4 stars to 5. Great support! Update September 6, 2023 The Tapo 3.0 app (3.0.17) has been released.

Lo tengo hace 2 meses y sigue funcionando sin problema, fácil de instalar y la calidad de video es muy buena tanto de día como en la obscuridad. Detecta casi todo tipo de movimientos y saca sustos cuando hay gatos por la colonia porque los confunde que son personas jaja. Y el campo de visión también es amplio. La aplicación también muy fácil de utilizar para activar, desactivar la alarma y poder ver los archivos.

Câmera entrega o que promete, imagem ótima, campo de visão adequado, imagem muito nitida e perfeita mesmo sob pouca luz

I’ve tried six different security camera brands over the last five years, searching for the best one—but the best never seems to show up in Amazon search results! That changed when a friend recommended TP-Link Tapo. I had to search for the exact model to find it, but now I see why it might not show up alongside big brands like Ring and Blink—it’s a serious competitor! I never leave reviews unless I’m 110% satisfied, and this is it! My search for the perfect home security camera is finally over. The Tapo C325WB is hands down the most reliable camera I’ve used. The video quality is outstanding—I can clearly read license plates of passing cars (not that I record them, but it’s great to have that level of detail). One of the best features is the support for a 512GB microSD card (I use a SanDisk High Endurance), allowing 24/7 2K continuous recording for over 200 days! Plus, with loop recording, I never have to worry about running out of space. Unlike other brands that lock features behind subscriptions, Tapo offers premium “AI” features at no extra cost. Cloud storage is available as an option, which makes sense for those who prefer offsite backups. The camera supports both LAN and WiFi, and I’ve had zero issues with connectivity—no surprise since TP-Link specializes in networking! Their Tapo app is seamless, the picture quality is amazing, and there’s no lag whatsoever. I was so impressed that I explored their full product lineup and ended up buying their smart switches, outdoor cameras, and doorbell—all top-notch and unbeatable in price! When it comes to security, reliability is everything, and TP-Link Tapo delivers. They use secure protocols to ensure privacy, and their home monitoring system is simply unbeatable for the price. If you’re looking for a feature-packed, reliable, and affordable security camera, this is the one.
