Eufy Security eufyCam 2C Pro 2K Outdoor Wire-Free Battery Camera - Add On

Live in Hawke's Bay, after 2 break in's within 6 days at our workshop, we ordered this kit as well as the keypad kit. It was easy to setup, I searched and followed a great youtube video on how to do this. We installed the 3 camera's, 2 outside and 1 inside. We downloaded the Eufy app and were able to see all the camera's from our phones. Takes a bit of playing to get the exact setup required, but was able to do pretty much everything we wanted. Anyway, would you believe, just over 24 hours after we installed the system, we got notified on our phones that there was human motion on the app. So we looked at the live stream, and sure enough,...view more Live in Hawke's Bay, after 2 break in's within 6 days at our workshop, we ordered this kit as well as the keypad kit.

Anyway, would you believe, just over 24 hours after we installed the system, we got notified on our phones that there was human motion on the app. So we looked at the live stream, and sure enough, there was someone breaking in. The alarm sounded once he got inside, and we were able to speak through the camera inbuilt speaker to PISS OFF and that the police were on their way ! It automatically recorded the footage of the guy running away, which was hilarious! Unfortunately the night vision footage wasn't clear enough for the police to find the intruder, but nonetheless, he didn't get any of our tools on the 3rd attempt, and no break-ins since ! The equipment has already paid for itself within 24 hours.

These cameras are very easy to set up and have a great picture. Unfortunately within two weeks of installation one of our cameras was stolen, despite being screwed into the top of the garage. Be mindful of where you mount your cameras. These cameras are very easy to set up and have a great picture.

Creates it's own 2gh network between indoor and outdoor units. Great if the indoor unit is close to the spots you want to install the cameras. In our case wanted one either side of house, coverage couldn't reach both. Mesh owners: if indoor unit isn't connected by network cable, intermittently drops off wifi for a couple of hours. After I got them, found lots of commentary online about mesh incompatiblities.

Great picture, app etc though. Creates it's own 2gh network between indoor and outdoor units. Great if the indoor unit is close to the spots you want to install the cameras.

Upgraded from a Wyze system, it’s night and day.
- Super fast app, it will notify you in plenty of time to surprise couriers delivering to your door.
- Recording space is large, had these a couple months and they’ve used ~10% onboard storage.
- Range is far superior to Wyze outdoor cams, just works, and works everywhere we’ve put them.
- Optional monthly fee is truly optional; it’s basically offsite backups for your recording (which if you’re technical you could probably do yourself as they support a protocol you could stream to a NAS and backup).
- Very clear, audio is good, real-time back-forth works if you want to talk to someone.

- Geofencing and app notifications are fairly configurable even across multiple phones.
- App is easy to use and setup.
- Setup of the units is so easy it could be done by a rhesus macaque - thought I was doing it wrong, but no, it’s actually that simple.
- Mounting is a cinch, a kind of friction-based gimbal allows you relative freedom of installation.
- Battery life is as claimed, as mentioned they’ve been in a couple months and the lowest cam (most used) is still at 50%. The others are more or less 80-90%.

Things you might not like:
- Storage isn’t upgradable.
- Included light isn’t amazing - you would need alternative lighting to not use IR illumination.

These cameras are pretty good so far. The image quality & voice communication works well. Also the alarm sound when they detect movement during the away mode is a good deterrent for trespassers. Although the cameras die a little faster than I thought they would, however I use mine in a retail setting so they get a lot of action. Overall I would buy these again since it was local storage & there’s no paid subscription required like with Arlo. These cameras are pretty good so far.

Really pleased with this purchase, i was unsure of what to buy to add easy to use peace of mind home security and monitoring and can vouch for the simplicity of setup, ease of use and awesome features such as AI human motion detection and configurable alerting based on whether you're home/away etc.
No additional monthly costs/subscription and does exactly what i want it to do and the app works great and has some funky features.

Does not require paid subscription to work, easy installation. Range is reasonable. Does have very long battery life.
App is excellent compared to other brands at that price. Would not beat the functionality of google cam but those need paid subscription to work.
Eufy brand has many accessories you can also purchase and will work with this base module. Might try the doorbell next :) Does not require paid subscription to work, easy installation. Range is reasonable. Does have very long battery life.

Bought the Eufy cam pack with 2 cameras and a base unit.
Setting up was very easy with the app and everything works very well.
Camera view is very clear, great night vision and can turn on the flash light if needed Can also speak through the camera via the app.
Probably will add some extra cameras soon.

Don't bother doing hours and hours of research looking at different brands and functions.
Brilliant images. Excellent detection. Great app and support.
Eufy is the best. Pricy but worth the quality.
Very satisfied.

Easy set up, simple to install. Make sure you charge the cameras first. Been up for around two weeks and batteries seem to be 95%+.
Only minor issue is the geofencing mode sometimes doesn’t trigger. But all you have to do is open the app on your phone and then put your phone away. It seems to encourage the app to check the location and it changes mode.
Was able to watch the tradies at the house without issue.
Although not a direct criticism of this product, if you buy the indoor cameras too from Eufy, check if they work with the home base.

Although not a direct criticism of this product, if you buy the indoor cameras too from Eufy, check if they work with the home base. I think most don’t, so even though you can control everything in the app, the indoor cameras and outdoor ones don’t talk to each other, so you need to set up two geofencing controls. Mildly inconvenient, but not the worst thing in the world.

Have had this up and running for about three weeks now and loving it. Got it during a sale so got a good deal. Installation relatively easy. Loved the battery lasts for 6 months before recharge. Pictures and video clear. App easy to use and set up. Still just scratching the surface of app functionality but so far no complaints at all. Also love the lack of subscription required.

Great features with no subscription, does all the person recognition flawlessly. Worked so well I got another 3 for the other property. Easy setup and mounting. The alerts come through in a few seconds, really quick. Great features with no subscription, does all the person recognition flawlessly. Worked so well I got another 3 for the other property.
