already have several security cameras that are powered off via a hole drilled through the wall, but I wanted a camera in the back of our house and the only mounting location that would do the right recording area is not to have a power source available so I needed a fully wireless camera as this came complete with a solar panel which reduces the number of charges required which I ordered. When opened, this security camera kit comes with everything needed to install it on a wall, post or fence. The main camera is a separate unit from the solar panel. If the camera is shaded, the solar panel can still be positioned on its own mount facing the sun. A small cable connects the two units. Build quality is about average so I would put this in the range of a budget camera that says it's waterproof so it can be used all year round. I cannot comment on value for money as this is listed as unavailable at the time of writing. I would recommend doing a full charge via the USB cable before attaching and setting up. Then the solar panel should help maintain the battery level depending on the position and the number of sunny days. I've found that the solar panel doesn't work at all on cloudy days, so a lot depends on where you live and if it's south facing. Once the camera has been powered on, it can be paired and set up in the free app that can be downloaded onto a smart device. I had no problems pairing at all, although I did this before taking the camera outside to be mounted so it was close to my router and phone. That way I would recommend it. As this is a battery powered camera, many of the normal options that come standard with an AC adapter are not available. Most of these are designed to increase the amount of time between charges. The main feature not available on a battery camera is the ability to take steady shots, which is understandable as that would drain the power pretty quickly. The recordings for this are all made from the motion sensor which, when triggered, will start recording for a set time. Movement and recording times, as well as various other options, can be accessed through the app. I always prefer recording locally to the cloud, so I fitted a 128GB SD card and formatted it ready for use. If required, this provides the option for cloud recording at a low monthly cost. Since this is a PTZ camera, it can be panned and tilted in any useful direction from the smart device. The image can also be zoomed but I find the quality drops so I wouldn't normally use it. Overall this is a very nice budget security camera kit with the added benefit of including a solar panel which reduces the number of charges. This must be taken into account when comparing prices. The HD picture is at 1080p and streams over 2.4GHz WiFi without too many hiccups, this depends on the router setup of roughly. Along with a fairly decent daytime image, this also has an automatic night mode using infrared, which again is clear enough to be able to spot identifying features if needed. I found this to be far better than some other budget cameras I've used that could only see at night what I could see looked like blurry ghosts lol. If you can't run from mains power or just need the convenience of a cordless option, you can't go wrong with this set. However, I will say that a mesh option is always the best way to go, if at all possible.

An absolute gem with the latest and innovative technology. It's the best security camera I have that is completely wireless, self-sufficient and has a solar panel to charge the battery so I don't have to take it off to charge every 2 months. What a lovely design as the plastic used for this unit is a high quality material and it comes with all the hardware including a paper template for drilling holes to ensure a perfect installation. It also comes with an extra USB cable just in case you need to charge it with a USB charger, but my camera arrived 100% charged showing no battery drain when it's off and the battery does not discharge itself. What I love most is that it has a fully motorized head, so you can use your phone to pan your head in all directions to check what's going on outside. I am very impressed with this feature as all 4 security cameras I have are only fixed in one direction so you can only see in one direction. So I had 2 cameras in the front and one on the back and side of the house. This one camera will cover the front and/or back of my entire house. No waste of expensive electricity either, as it is completely self-sufficient in power thanks to the included solar panel, which doubles as a shield or canopy to protect it from harsh weather. The only thing missing from this pack is a Micro SD/TIFF card and you're good to go. Very easy and uncomplicated installation. Just make sure your router is set to 2.4 wireless protocol during installation. *PS I did not receive an SD card or a SIM card specified in the description. I am very impressed with the design and functionality of this high quality wireless and solar powered camera from K&F Concept. I would give 10 stars

The K&F Concept KF50.0009AEU is an outdoor security camera with full control over a wireless connection. It is powered by an internal lithium battery that can be charged with the included solar panel. The lens mount is motorized, allowing remote control of horizontal and vertical movements, as well as zooming in and out. The integrated power source offers a degree of independence when choosing the location of the camera. I placed our sample on a post in the yard, quite high up, and pointed at the lawn to record wildlife, especially at night. The plastic bracket is simply attached with the supplied screws. Masonry requires the use of a drill and dowels (preferably better ones than the cheap examples in the kit). I similarly mounted the solar panel under the camera, using the swivel mount to set it pointing slightly up to harvest as much sunlight as possible. It could be placed away from the camera. The 3-meter line offers a lot of flexibility in this regard. It connects to a USB-C socket underneath the device. An alternative power source could potentially be used when sunlight is scarce but the body of the plug is a bit too small and the socket is rubber encased to keep moisture out so a suitable cord is needed. It's pretty normal for this type of device. I would have liked to use the camera via PC, but it doesn't support Windows. The only way is to using the android app in an emulator or maybe using a windows program with multiple factory cameras. This requires some knowledge and effort, and the camera may need to be set up in the manufacturer's app first to get the necessary details. The camera can be set up with either a sound signal or a QR code. I had trouble with the former, but the QR code worked right away. The textbook clearly took some effort, but some of the English language is hard to follow. The camera has all the typical features that appear in the list. The app is fairly easy to navigate, but not perfect. Recordings can be viewed after a short connection delay. They can be stored on an SD card in the camera or in the cloud (requires subscription after free trial). The recording quality is very satisfactory and I found this camera generally capable. I'm still trying to line up shots longer than a few seconds and the battery doesn't last the night at this time of year. It could be better in a security setting where it doesn't trigger and isn't accessed as frequently.

I think I've found the ultimate security camera. Bought this camera after a friend of mine recommended this brand. He is a photographer and has used some of their products in the past and seemed very happy with them. After a few hours of research, this camera seemed to be the only one that had all the features I was looking for, so I figured I should give it a try.
Just like the specs, you get everything they claim. The camera has a built-in high-capacity battery, so you will never run out of power. This is also guaranteed by the solar panel that you bring together. Both are waterproof and suitable for outdoor use, which is amazing.

When it comes to storage you have a micro SD slot that supports up to 128GB or if you prefer you can store your footage via the cloud service. Obviously you would have to pay a monthly fee.

However, what I like the most is the pan/tilt/zoom feature, which allows you to control a very large area remotely from the mobile app. The footage is in 1080p, so it's very clear even with night vision. Another great feature is the PIR sensor, which is optimized to reliably detect humans and large pets, and you can change its sensitivity in the app too. Night vision is both black and white and color thanks to the floodlights installed on the front of the camera.

Connectivity is via your WiFi. So if you are planning to buy more than one camera, you need to make sure during installation that they are within your WiFi range and have a strong signal, otherwise they will not work properly. Or you can buy a WiFi extender.

The app that controls the device is very user friendly and easy to install for the less tech savvy. And you can basically control everything from within. You can share the device with other people, check the battery status and change the energy saving settings. Change Motion Detection Sensitivity You can take screenshots or record videos whenever you want. You can even set time periods for the camera to detect motion and record videos. Basically everything you can think of is in this app.

The only downside I could find is that it's a bit pricey. I've used a few RING cameras in the past and they've been really good and a bit cheaper. But none of them had all these functions. So if you're looking for a security camera that has it all and is willing to pay the price for it, this is probably your best bet.

It also comes with an extra USB cable just in case you need to charge it with a USB charger, but my camera was 100% charged when it arrived, which shows that when it's off, there's no battery drain and it doesn't self-discharge.
