Best Wireless Security Cameras - Wifi and Cellular Review

[@mimirw8031]

This has probably been one of the best reviews i have seen. Straight t the point. Etc. points that matter.

[@ufcpa1]

Great video. I too have a number of Blink and Reolink cameras installed, at three locations around the country. Two observations, both of which you may have touched upon- -Most of my blink cameras are battery powered and outdoors. They have a relatively long trigger time, sometimes as long as 10 seconds, which may be an issue for some. That said, they are a tremendous value when on sale. In my opinion, a better option if you have AC power at the location is to install the AC-powered camera. Those are just as inexpensive, and consistently trigger very quickly. -With respect to the Reolink cameras, as you mentioned, they seem to power quite well via solar panel. I have one panel installed under the eaves of my house, and facing toward the house, i.e., shaded and with absolutely no direct sunlight. The camera consistently remains charged, solar powered only by reflected light from the side of the house-impressive.

I have the Reolink Trackmix 4G LTE camera at our camp site in the mountains and it works great. The solar panel keeps the camera charged at 100 percent. I've had it for over a year. The SIM card is from T-Mobile. Good video Doc.

[@HowTowithDoc]

Thanks... it's a GREAT option for remote locations.

How much is it a month !?

[@lo_batt]

great video love the chickens, i had some homeless drug addicts break into a vacant home i own for rent so this has been a huge help in deciding what kind of camera to get

[@beencraftn6612]

AXIS cameras are top of the line! Ive never seen any good usable video with Reolink! Nothing is ever clear enough to make out faces at night, ever!

[@HowTowithDoc]

I've never seen a CELLUAR Axis camera. 1000 feet away from our home we have two cellular cams that perform VERY well at our gates. No power, wifi, or wires needed.

[@beencraftn6612]

​@@HowTowithDoc I find that hard to believe and we have tactaccam and Stealth cam That are good but not great cellular game cams. We may be able to see at long distancesbut nothing is clear or usable. Stand by my comment about axis cameras. I would rather spend money on Poe cameras of that brand before I wasted any more money on cellular. Sure cellular will work but again at night time they're horrible not to mention the fog in the mist and the condensation suck for these lenses. I bought 2 stealth cam 360 revolver pros and they ended up in a dumpster. The stealth cam deceptor max works pretty decent.

[@jasodan72]

The issue I had with Blink cameras up where I live in Minnesota is that the battery does not last long at all in cold weather. I am going to take a look into these new cameras. Love the idea of solar.

[@HunterTN]

You can get solar panels for Blink cameras, I've gotten 2 and they work just fine. I don't see how they can say the batteries last two years, I used the ones out of the box and they barely made it a few weeks.

[@mourbonaventure7475]

Thank you, was excited for this one!

[@WheelsMarioGames]

Loved ur transparency!

[@houlester]

I’m in the path of a hurricane and evacuated. I wanted a cellar video camera I could put outside that runs off battery. I would love to view live footage remotely to see whether or not my house floods and to view what is going on outside. The last hurricane I had ring cameras installed in my windows but my power and Wi-Fi went out. Wanted to see if you could recommend one? I would love to pan the camera around live and see all over.

[@tobiastaylor3979]

Thanks Doc! Just ordered the exact camera you recommended 📹 (badass) Cellular, w/solar panel & cord. Plus I used (Doc) for savings code and you saved me $12 😃 Thank you!! Your videos were great! We appreciate you 💪🏻🤜🏻🤛🏻👍🏻🏆

[@Ron-xn4wf]

Love your videos. Is there a way that I can extend my wifi range out side of my house ?

[@AZ_Baggin]

Hi - I watch every video every morning and have gain amazing amount of Knowledge, thank you. can you advise which model Ego mower you have? Thanks

[@2GUNMASTER]

$20-$30 a month per camera is insane!

[@HowTowithDoc]

Didn't say that. It's 10 - 20 if you go cellular. Most go wifi

[@Otsp922]

@@HowTowithDoc are you using any WiFi boosters/extenders??

[@nicholasgranat2999]

Very helpful thanks for your time,Doc!

[@jeffborkowski]

from a security protective, do you isolate the cameras on your local network and block any outbound data connectivity?

[@TonyC-pq7bp]

Hi doc please advise which herbicide is safe to use on fresh Yukon Bermuda grass. My lawn now is around 3 weeks old looking fantastic. Purchased all the fertilizers you mentioned in your gardening videos. But I have an area where there are broad leaf weeds are growing, really don’t wanna harm my new grass. Thanks. 🙏

[@douglasbarnhart3324]

Thanks for the video Doc.

[@dpeagles]

I just bought one of the wifi cams off your link a couple of weeks ago. Doing well so far. The solar works well at this point. I may buy another one.

[@danielhlub2010]

Do you have to pay for WiFi it own?

[@dpeagles]

@danielhlub2010 No, I have a wifi antenna outside on house roof. If you Don't have wifi signal you will need a cellular sim card and buy the cellular camera instead of the wifi version.

[@Sethhaun78]

​@@dpeagleswhat if you have spectrum wifi internet..and few acres but it only works about 50 yards the wifi??? What's best???

[@dpeagles]

@Sethhaun78 You'd need a cellular sim card. You don't have to have cellular phone service to get a monthly sim card service. That's one option

[@cnidawgs00]

Great video very thorough thanks Doc

[@buckshot8393]

You said the camera has a card. Can you delete things by phone without having to disturb the camera.

[@HowTowithDoc]

Yes, and if you choose it will rewrite over when full.

[@kaidenvideoshows4414]

I'm a surveillance camera amature "expert", lol. Great video. Was looking for the name/company of these AI cameras, didnt see it in the description.

[@rogergordon7179]

Hey, Doc, I just purchased a piece of property 1st of the year 4 1/2 acres of pastureland. I live in the lower part of Alabama and have hard red clay soil. So, looking to plant Bermuda grass seed any idea how much seed to purchase?

[@brookslee4913]

Sahara II is excellent and 50lb bag does 5 acres. It does better than sod that is irrigated.

[@rogergordon7179]

Thanks for the information were trying to sell our existing home right now. As soon as we sell we will build our home then till up and level and sow new seed.

[@brookslee4913]

@@rogergordon7179 Roger, if possible, contact your local ag co-op sooner than later and see if they can apply 2 tons/acre of ag lime (if no soil test is done). Ag lime will help raise the ph of your soil and takes time to work. It is not expensive, but the transportation and spreading equipment can be the most expensive part of the process. If you are like me, the lack of organic matter in your red clay will be a challenge. Hopefully, you will have at least 2-3 inches of quality topsoil on top of that red clay. Good luck.

[@jccourtn]

How do the WiFi cameras work in the chicken house? You said they are WiFi. Can I assume you have WiFi there? Or do they connect to the camera on the pole called Bad Ass and use the cellular?

[@HowTowithDoc]

We have a wifi MESH network set up. We have about 6 PODS all around to extend our wifi.

[@timking2009]

@@HowTowithDoc What is the range of a MESH wifi network?

[@300sniper]

How far away does the motion detector start recording? As in, if a car is coming up my long narrow driveway at 15 mph, will these detect it in time to start recording and tracking? Or will the car be beyond it before it wakes up?

[@colomacountry]

Good question, I love how dash cams have a buffer to fix this issue. I wonder if home cameras have this? Blink sux in this category and many other categories.

[@hunterhall5012]

would really like to know the difference between the reolink and the eufy S340

[@HowTowithDoc]

The eufy has a MOUNTED solar panel which is BAD in our opinion. We have our solar panels up to 6 feet away which is a HUGE advantage.

[@SteveVincent-AVENTICS]

How do you connect the Cellular Camera's to your wired camera system?

[@Coolranchpepe]

does this system store the recording on the cloud

[@HowTowithDoc]

No, it's on a sim card.

[@addisonranch]

@@HowTowithDoccan the data from the WiFi camera be stored on your LAN storage device and not their cloud storage?

Just play with the settings and they are fine. They have improved all the features over the past 2 years.

8 minutes in and blinks don’t move and name your camera…. Oh and there are Wi-Fi cameras and sim card pay monthly cameras..
