Thank you, I was curious about the installation. Most people put it against the wall. But this situation is closer to what I have. I’m still on the fence because it doesn’t support homebase.

Thank you very much for the in depth review, very helpful. Could you please let me know if it has this feature?- I’m wondering if I could set the light to dusk to dawn mode with the light power low. Then, have the light change to brighter when it detects motion. Thanks much!

Hi, thanks for the video! Few questions: Will the light turn on if motion is in blacked out zone? Is the camera and light linked together or will the light turn on and not the camera in some cases? Final question is the camera obvious or discreet? Thank you so much for your help!

@GrantButler

3 ай бұрын

No, the privacy zones will not turn on the light, and the lights can be on without it recording, and the camera is very discreet. Most don't notice it's there as long as you have the status LED off

Great review! Thanks. One question left, is it possible to only turn on the light when motion is detected during night time?

No you cannot. I have two of these. One on each porch. You can set the alert volume. But even low is loud. I'm not at home and wanted to turn off the audible alert during Halloween visits but still do the crazy colors with the light... but no can do! Had to snooze or turn off motion detection. Edit: OK you can setup a custom lights only security alert...means taking off my geofencing for now but that is fine. So correction you can do it but it's a little work for last minute on Halloween while I'm away lol, so yeah create it now so you can switch to it when needed.

Hi Grant. Great video and thank you for going into so much detail. I've only ever used Reolink, but I'm considering trying out some Eufy products. I agree that it's a downside not having the ability to add SD cards like you can with just about every Reolink product. However, Reolink don't make a lot of the innovative types of products that Eufy seem to, hence why I'm looking over the fence. One question I wanted to ask was about setting routines. Reolink added routines to their app a while back whereby you could tell certain devices to alarm or send push alerts by pressing one button (devices could be grouped together to make it a literal one button press to activate the routine, then one button press to switch it off). Can you do this sort of thing within the Eufy app?

@GrantButler

7 ай бұрын

On the bright side, Eufy just made it so that you can use the HomeBase 3 as your expandable memory (its 1TB drive can be expanded up to 16tb too) for this device and a bunch more. As for the "Routines" I don't know of ways to set those up. I'm not sure what routines you would do with cameras though.

@johnadam5702

7 ай бұрын

I have a routine that when I press one button, selected cameras will push alerts to my phone and will audibly alarm if they detect movement. When I wake up, I press one button to put them back to a dormant state. It’s very similar to setting a house alarm on and off. Essentially a widget that helps you group devices and change settings with ease.

THANK YOU FOR THE VIDEO! I HAVE A SILLY QUESTION: DO I NEED THE HOMEBASE 3 IN ORDER TO CONNECT THE S100? OR CAN I HAVE IT CONECTED ONLY TO MY CELLPHONE? WHAT IS THE ADVANTAGE OF THE HOMEBASE 3 BESIDES THE LOCAL RECORDING?

@GrantButler

@CarlosEduardoDaCosta you can use just your phone. The advantage of the homebase3 is it will process the videos to identify specific people, and extra storage outside of the 8gb built into the S100

I can't speak for your phone, but I can take the wireless dongle for my Logitech keyboard/trackpad, plug it into a USB-A to USB-C adapter, plug that into the USB-C port on my Google Pixel phone, the keyboard and trackpad are then functional on my phone. If you don't need an external keyboard, you might just be able to plug in a wireless mouse dongle. Worth trying.
