7*24 Hours Surveillance Camera Solar Battery-Powered Outdoor Wireless Camera, Color Night Vision, Alarm, PIR Motion Detection
SKU: KF50.0031
I'm not on my first video surveillance camera installation, but it has the technical characteristics I was looking for so I can install it in a hard-to-reach place.
I wanted to install a camera in my garden, but the location I chose didn't have a power adapter or wired network, so I needed a camera that could work autonomously, just with a network connection.
It is a surveillance camera of the PTZ type that works (only) with a connection and has a system of internal batteries, rechargeable via a micro USB cable, so it has a very good autonomy (about 15 days at average use). However, to be truly autonomous, this camera comes with a solar panel kit that allows it to charge the batteries when needed. So you don't have to worry about charging.
Everything is delivered to us in neat packaging that protects the contents well with foam.
We will of course have the necessary documentation to help us with the installation and the solar panel fixing kit.
For most of us, you don't have to go through a complicated setup.
All you have to do is download the application indicated in the quick guide to your smartphone, you must turn on the camera and after launching the application, if you need to search and add a camera... you must scan the QR code, it only takes a few seconds.
Once you have access to the settings, you can customize the connection part, motion detection function, night vision, alert notifications, etc.
Very important, when you turn on motion detection, you can only operate the camera when it detects something. This saves battery life.
The images or videos of the alarms can be saved in the cloud service (paid) that the application offers or use a microSD card (not included) by installing it in the dedicated slot.
It is also equipped with infrared LEDs that allow very good visibility even at night.
In the end, on wide days we have a really good product with a really surprising picture quality since it handles different formats including HD. At night, the picture remains quite good even in complete darkness. Little extra: this camera is equipped with small dots to enjoy a colored night vision!!! The picture quality is remarkable.
The app is very practical, fluid and very easy to use. With the PTZ option, the camera can be rotated horizontally and vertically, which allows us to benefit from a wider surveillance area. The movements are very smooth and the motors don't seem to use a lot of battery.
Very happy with this product.

We just placed this camera in my parents' driveway a few days ago and so far I'm very impressed with this little camera! It came in a tiny box packed with the solar panel, all the necessary cables and mounting hardware, and a comprehensive user manual. Setting up the camera was extremely easy and we were able to mount it beautifully in under an hour.
After the camera was mounted, we downloaded the app from the App Store. The app showed how to set up the camera and connect to WiFi with simple step-by-step instructions. Within 10 minutes we moved the camera with the joystick and changed the motion detection settings.
We were very impressed with the image quality, the camera is as good as a smartphone and the wide-angle lens covers a lot, so overall we're very happy with it. Even at night, although black and white, the image quality seems to remain just as sharp with the infrared camera.
I put a 16GB microSD card in the camera so it can store the footage. It's been running for a few days and has only used about 400MB of memory. I think it uses a very efficient video encoding format. There is also an option to save the videos in the cloud, I activated the 7-day trial, we'll see if I end up subscribing, but it would definitely make me a lot safer to have a backup of all the recordings in the Having cloud instead of just on the camera itself!
Overall I think this is an excellent package, the image quality is very impressive, the application has all the features you will ever need and the motion detection works flawlessly. The two-way audio is also a handy plus that we'll be using a lot!

This camera is absolutely wonderful! Ever since I first opened the box I have been very impressed with the packaging and the high quality of the materials used to make this product. I could see that a lot of thought and thought went into the design. Software installation was a breeze! After I downloaded the app and turned on the camera, the app recognized the camera immediately and just a few simple steps later my camera was ready to use. I was also very happy to see that I had a few ways to mount the camera and what really made my day was being able to mount the camera without having to drill permanent holes in the walls. (there is also the possibility of mounting and hanging it via a screw). Once the mount is securely on the wall, it's easy to attach the camera to it using the built-in magnet. With the sphere design, you can adjust the camera angle or remove the camera at any time.
Immediately after I complete the setup and installation, I get real-time notifications when motion is detected. As long as I have a stable connection on my phone, I have the ability to intercom with anyone at my door. What I really like about the notifications feature is that I can view both screenshots and videos. The image and video quality is very good and the night vision function works incredibly well. I have included a picture of my two dogs in a completely darkened room with this review.
The waterproof design is nice to have too, although it wasn't a necessity for me now, it might come in handy one day.
I've used the camera indoors at times to check on my dogs and now mainly use it for front and back access to my house.
What surprised me the most about this camera is the battery life. I was very skeptical of the claims in the listing but now after almost 6 weeks of daily use and the battery gauge is showing full bars! Well, color impresses me!!!
Overall, it's great for me to be able to see who's at my door whether I'm home or not.
One thing I would like to add and I hope the seller can see this comment is that the font in the manual is very very small. I recommend enlarging the font so that oldtimers like me can easily read it.
