I like how the fact that this is a sponsored video doesn't get mentioned except for a a short comment in the video description.
So pleased with all your shows
Love this option for camera 😃
Hmmm thanks hopefully I can get a house to protect. Great video. 👍🏾
I appreciate how easy this install was. I was almost sold. I think im still leaning toward wired cameras though even if it takes me longer and more work to install. Im not a fan of having everything battery operated.

There is a solar panel add on that you can connect to it.
Should've included prices for cloud subscription. If it's a fair price, should not be an issue. Also, battery powered is easy to install bit on the backend it adds to three maintenance. Up to 180 days is under ideal conditions, so let's say 120 radius because some people's systems will trigger more often for various reasons. That means you might have to pull the ladder out three times a year to either swap batteries or pull the batteries, recharge, and replace. Might not seem like much work but trust that after a while it'll become a hassle. Set and forget is what people will want even if at first they prefer the quick and cheap install. That said, video quality looks good and TP-Link is a solid brand.

Enjoyed. But can find video on using these tapos with google tv. Would like this and also if I can hook up 6 to tv (large home)
When watching the clips off of the sd card does it have bunch artifacts. I know a diff Tappo unit similar to this has this issue.
Excellent video and respect how you perfectly did a proper sponsor video. Many KZreadrs do it completely wrong and feels out of place. 10 out of 10 🔥
My house isn't a mansion so I got (eventually) a nice POE 8 camera 4k setup. I had a HD setup before with the small coax cables and just ran them along the edges of the walls and out a door or window. My house already has holes drilled in the floors for cable TV coax so I just dropped the network cables through the holes and underneath the house, then out the vent covers for the crawl space walls. Not as elegant as that wireless setup but I have 3 4k cameras up in the corners of the house in front and the back yard, no batteries to change and the 4k recordings are good enough to read license plates and clearly see faces in the driveway or street. I still have 1 camera left and room for another 4 if I get some more. If you build your own network cables the hole you'll need is like 1/4 inch or so but I used the cables it came with and had to extend one with a coupler because 60 feet wasn't enough to get to the other end of the house. I might eventually clean up and replace the cables with cat6 and build the ends myself but for now it works. Definitely more work but I get a very clear 4k video and everything is hsrd wired. They also have sound and person/vehicle detection and a 2tb 24/7 rsted hard drive. I paid less then 300 on a black Friday sale a couple of years ago.

I'm tired just reading that. We probably can agree two or three of these cams for that price and it all accessible from your app isn't too bad. Changing the battery one day per season even would be easier than 99% of installs

@@BTheInstaller yes, it was some work to get done but it works well and is fully accessible from my phone or tablet anywhere so was worth it to me. For most folks the ease of installation and low cost is definitely worth it, and the video quality seems really good.
The cameras ridding on your 2.4 channel or directly to the hub?
So if you want to view them on a pc or television..... how do you integrate the TAPOs? There are a lot of reasons people want more than just a android or apple app
Can we give directly Power to charge without removing the battery
That thumbnail 😂
will wireless work with metal siding and soffits?
Nice
Great review. Can I ask what may be a silly question - when you mounted the camera under the eaves using the screw on the side - can the picture be flipped within the app so it is orientated the correct way?

Yes, the camera is correctly oriented. 👌
Are the cameras in the video the same cameras as the TP-Link - Tapo 3-Camera Indoor/Outdoor 2K QHD Wireless Home Security Surveillance System with adjustable magnetic base - White?

The ones showed are the c420. The all white, sealed body, magnetic ones are the c425.
would a wifi extender work with this or not recommended at all?
Thanks for the video. Did I miss the part on where to purchase the batteries & the cost or wether they are rechargeable or not?

Thanks. Yes it is a solid little system. I have only charged it once in 9 months so far.
my hub did not connect to my orbi first try. I gave up with my new Samsung S23 and Topo app and tried my wife's old phone, and it worked and connect from the H200 hub to my Orbi routers. I then was able to use my new Samsung S23 phone.
I have tapo camera c400s2 but it stays in night vision only how the light of the camera turn on
Will they detect through glass? i.e. from a windowsill out to a garden or driveway

Can you install more than 2 cameras per hub? It seems like you have to buy 2 cameras with a hub. If you buy 2 sets of 2, do you just not use one of the hubs?

To link tapo cams are supposed to do continuous recording can you please show how or show the cams that can do this function as I have had several incidents at my residence that were NOT captured on my wireless cams because of length of event clips and slowness of cam to start recording when an event happens
@SueRosalie

continuous recording will drain the battery very fast. You need a wired in system for that.
I also connected to a solar panel
Does the app give you low battery warnings?

Tapo works well but, no phone support, no additional batteries available, and no extra cameras available for purchase!! Otherwise I like them.

@@BTheInstaller No, not different. But it's just a first question coming up in my mind about security-camera's. As for this time of life camera's are everywhere,.. so the ones who want to come to your house will search for an answer.. And if they think/know they can catch a big "fish" at your house,.. they will have to find a way around.. So,.. no. I don't question this camera but more a questio for all systems.. maybe they even have wifi-jammers ???

Tapo has a solar panel which costs $30 and you can connect it straight to the wireless camera… So no hassle of charging those again and again…
