It almost feels like this video was made for me after my last comment on needing a flood light with continuous recording and showing the light from it in the yard haha. As always amazing review. I am a bit disappointed in the picture quality though. I feel like it was pretty poor resolution wise, especially from a distance and not being able to really see the license plate from distance and movement was pretty disappointing. But even with that it sure feels like the best flood light camera currently available. It looks like the camera itself here is adjustable, I want it on the side of my house and point to a bit towards the front. That's possible right?
@LifeHackster
@LifeHackster Жыл бұрын
You can adjust it to tilt to the side but not 90 degrees. You will get the FOV though because it is that wide.

@LifeHackster
@LifeHackster Жыл бұрын
Without subscription, you will get all motion events with a 5 minute cool off. It has a tagging feature though on the SD card timeline of person detected events. So if you don’t need accurate notifications, then this can work.
@cryengine_x
@cryengine_x Жыл бұрын
@@LifeHackster 5 minute cool off? so like it would notify you of motion, but then if it detects motion again within 5 minutes it wont notify you? thats terrible. always some catch in the fine print with these cameras. i'm not gonna go down the sub road i refuse...so far with my blinks and reolink no sub needed and i dont lose any functionality important to me. edit: just checked and if you only do 1 camera its 20 a year, which i could actually stomach. but then they screw you on multiple cams costing 10 a month which is way too high. should be 3 a month is my threshold. so far i'd only use this floodlight, but what happens if you buy another wyze cam later (and you dont want to put it on sub), would it automatically force you to the higher subscription? at the end of the day in my scenario and location i think i'd be better off doing another reolink. the advantage of this one was the lights and being able to wire it into my spotlight mount. but for the expense, hell i could get a solar powered 2k reolink and have even easier install. or a 50 wired poe reolink and get better quality for less (but wiring hassle)

Watched your review of the Eufy floodlight and this (just ordered the Eufy but am rethinking the install after the video). I have a very specific need and no plans to integrate into a camera service (unless I buy this Wyze model). I need to replace the spotlight over my garage and on garbage night, I have someone messing with my cans. I want to be able to schedule when I am notified. Having the ability to view the cam on Goolge Home is a plus, but not required. I've seen mixed comments on if this is possible with either unit. Which one would you buy? Also, great videos!

@WolfnetSVR
@WolfnetSVR Жыл бұрын
I bought the older model but then realized where I was going to put it to record the front driveway would have put the camera behind a gutter downspout run 😞 So I returned it. I plan to extend the junction box to the side and away from the gutter pipe and buy this one now. I also have two easy installs to replace the back flood lights with these. My question for anyone who has purchased one is how does it work with the hardwired light switch I already had for my floodlights? I want to be able to flick the switch to turn on the flood lights when I let my dogs out and not have to go through the app. It also just dawned on me that the switch would need to be on to power the camera when "not" using the flood lights. Would I be stuck using the app then? PS - I forgot to mention awesome job on the review. Very thorough!!
@LifeHackster
@LifeHackster Жыл бұрын
The floodlight cam needs to have continuous power on it. Your dogs will trigger it anyways (when selected all motion in the settings) or you can set it dusk to dawn or in a schedule in low brightness and will turn full brightness when it senses motion and this is my current settings.

Does it have professional monitoring? I have the same pealing issue on my Ring floodlight camera causing issues with night vision and detection. Maybe need to peal it off to see if that fixes it. The ring app is still better I think if you want to scroll back to see motion events and scrub the time lapse. The fact it's made out of plastic could be an issue due to exposure to direct UV that could cause it to crack and fall off the mount. And motion detection is a little better and faster with Ring. Maybe you can add this to the Ring app if you have the Ring alarm pro but I doubt it, it's not a PoE camera so it probably doesn't support the necessary protocol. At least not without some hacking.
@LifeHackster
@LifeHackster Жыл бұрын
I don't think Wyze has camera monitoring like Ring's Virtual Security Guard. You can just peel off or scrape off the remaining plastic on the Ring Floodlight Cam and it should be ok. Ring app is still the better app overall.

If it wasn't for the fact it doesn't have a spare usb port like the old floodlight does, I would be very tempted to swap my current wyze floodlight to this one. (I use the og telephoto cam with the floodlight to monitor the street pointed at my house (T intersection) and (its almost) a must for me now to have that zoom capability. (It has benefited one of my neighbors greatly with their stalker issue and vehicle theft.)

You will only get all motion notifications and with a 5 minute cool off. The recordings on the micro SD card though will be tagged with person events. Reolink Duo needs a separate 12 volt power supply and not a junction box type install.

Also some additional features I wish you can mention for Wyze are being able to live view 4+ Wyze cams in the Wyze app simultaneously by putting them in a group. As well as the picture and picture feature if you view your Wyze cam on the Wyze live view web app on an iPhone. Some folks may not know about these which Makes way better than most other security cameras.

I am quite not so impressed with this blink wireless floodlight because of low visibility, lack of wide angle and low quality picture but Wyze camera seems are very highly efficiently better than others .

I'm just getting my feet wet with security cameras and got a Ring flood light cam wired plus for half off last year at Black Friday sales. Just got around to installing it this past week. Without having anything to compare it to it has been mostly satisfying. I do feel like the notifications could be faster.

Does this version have another port to plug in another cam like the v1?

The Duo 2 and even the duo floodlight uses a 12 volt power supply…and you will not be able to install in a junction box.

How did you get a black one?! When I ordered mine it only came in white and black still isn't available to purchase. But why does it need to say "Hi", when it tells someone they are being recorded. That's kind of lame. Yes, it's plastic but I don't think it feels cheap as it's a very solid thick plastic. But I really wish it had the a color temperature option so it could be adjusted to warm light instead of cool white light. And why did they put a flare on the top frame of the floods? Because if you mount it on an eave, then the fares are on the bottom. And there really is no point to have the frames flared at the top as they don't stick out enough to do anything. You do know that there is no need to turn off the wall switch to the light, if the circuit breaking is flipped off. I say this because if the circuit breaker is on you can possibly still get shocked even if the wall switch is off, if the hot was wired incorrectly. So having the wall switch off doesn't give you extra safety. But do you think this could be a replacement front porch light?

The black one is shipping soon. As to the build quality, to all the ones that I have tested, this one has a cheaper feel to it. As to safety, I have to cover all my bases here is KZfaq so turning off the switch and the breaker box is redundant but will prevent shock 100% of the time.

@@LifeHackster I think this version feels more solid they the original Wyze Floodlight. But again turning off the wall switch will not prevent shock 100% of the time. A lot of switches are wired incorrectly and only thing that matters is turning off the circuit breaker. But if you really wanted to cover your bases, then you would have said to use a circuit tester on wires after turning things off because that's the only way you will really know that the circuit isn't hot.

Nice review. Unfortunately, I have lost confidence with Wyze. They now want to charge a fee (Like most others) and some of their new products are no longer compatible with their former products. I'll stick with something more reliable.

The compression is pretty bad, even at 2.5k its about the same as any other 1080p cam.
