Can you believe Anker reached out to little old me and offered to send me a couple of products to play with and keep!
This is part one where I unbox and setup the eufy Security Solo IndoorCam P24, 2K Pan & Tilt Security Indoor Camera and tell you what I like and what I don’t like, but going by my previous videos there hasn’t been anything I don’t like…. Yet!!!

Hi, thanks for the video. I have recently started to look at the eufy cameras to have a good ecosystem at home for video coverage indoor, outdoor and alarm system. Not sure whether to go for these solo cams or Homebase compatible ones, can you advice? Understand that homebase is good for central storage but then what’s the need of solo ones?
@scottpinhorne 2 жыл бұрын
The standalone ones I have looked at so this one, and the external floodlight ones seem to standalone cause they are powered individually that’s only thin that seems to make sense although I am speculating. Personally I prefer wireless.

I am very interested in knowing what the trigger time is to capture a human in the image. I bought a competing product, pointed it out the window to my driveway, the purpose of which is to detect anyone on the driveway. (yes yes, I know, put a camera outside... but... ) I found in my testing, if I walked fast, and transited the image in less than 5 seconds, the image recorded did not include me. The Eufy has my attention, but i want to know if my use case can be handled or not. Can it detect a human in 2.5 seconds or less , and get an image of said human near that timeframe? I have relegated the competing product to a less important role. Thank you.

Hi. I have the Floodlight 360 Camera out front. It picks up motion and records in the App. Does the indoor camera record in the same way or is it local storage only? If someone steals the camera, would I have a recording of them on the phone App still?
@scottpinhorne 2 жыл бұрын
I also have the floodlight 360 out front but when your viewing this via the app your still viewing it from the local storage on the camera as it’s not yet Homebase compatible which is why you see a download option from within the app. The indoor cam is the same.

Nice system but Eufy doesn't have a powerful outdoor siren or strobe light. Burglars are deterred by a powerful siren, which the Eufy system does not have. Eufy does have a beeper (alarm) on the homebase and the camera, but with that you tell the burglar exactly where the camera and the Eufy homebase are. If he also takes it with him, then you have nothing because the video images are stored on the home baze! And the beeper sound is far from powerful.
