EZVIZ LC1C Review - Unboxing, Features, Setup, Installation, Settings, Video & Audio Quality

Today, we are going to check and test out the EZVIZ LC1C... a Floodlight WiFi Camera. Thank you EZVIZ for sending me this camera to be reviewed. We will check out its features, do the unboxing, set it up and do the installation. We will then run some tests and see if this Floodlight cam from EZVIZ is a better option than the Ring's Floodlight or Eufy's Floodlight Camera.
This WiFi camera records in 1080p full HD but you will see later on that its video quality is pretty good for a 1080p camera. It's floodlight is 2000 lumens bright and has a 3000K color temperature. Check out the video for a couple of issues I found on their motion detection.

One of the biggest advantages of the Ezviz is the constant recording to SD card which you don’t get with the Ring.

@nix4644 4 жыл бұрын

Because Ring doesn't use an SD card. If I'm not mistaken (LifeHackster can confirm or debunk) most cameras with an SD card option will have continuous recording function.

@ipb1966 4 жыл бұрын

WS P Yes - I know Rung doesn’t have SD card. That why Ezviz has an advantage.

@LifeHackster 4 жыл бұрын

True.. you can record 24/7 on the micro SD card..

Good review. I installed the backing plate using two longer sheet rock screws and gently tightened the two white nuts. They are not very deep and I didn’t want to strip the threads. A longer screw and nut would give me more confidence that the unit will stay tightened. It would be a plus if there was a way to set how long the lights stayed on after they are activated. I have four other EZVIZ cameras and they work very well. I used long zip ties to hang the unit for wiring

The light keeps activated because you have active the light on alarm notifications, i think you need to turn them off both on alarm notifications and light settings, so then you will record black and white footage at night. But one thing I don't understand is why companies don't use dual color light, for me is a no buy that cam because of warm white light,I like only the cool light.

@LifeHackster 4 жыл бұрын

Yes.. I did.. I needed to turn it off on the notifications and on the light settings... EZVIZ just need to clean up the settings.. the lights should only work with the PIR sensor and not their pixel based detection.

@thecarpingsaint7143 3 жыл бұрын

Like the one you tested before, I find it motion detection to be very quick base on the charm it emit. picture quality is also great like the other model from this company you tested recently. it seem to have a bug never the less when you attempt to do the motion alert distance.

I agree it has good video quality and audio.. I did notice your Wi-Fi signal strength to the flashlight was only showing 1 bar in the app,which is very weak and could be why you were not getting the 25fps and of course you internet speed can affect that too and if your using a access point/Wi-Fi extender and if I remember your internet speed isn’t that great..

For constant recording, are the only two options 1) paying for the subscription, or 2) using an SD card. I was told that if the camera is connected to wifi, I would not need the subscription or SD card.

I have the BC1 kit, one base station and 2 cameras, I'm experiencing the same problem, I'm not getting the notification all the time. I guess I can tweak the detection range in a more systematic way, as currently I just use whatever I think might be good enough. The notification service is definitely not the best, but good enough. I may get this floodlight due to the fact that I have other EZVIZ cameras installed, so they can all be managed in one App.
