Video surveillance in complete autonomy
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.
