EufyCam 2 Pro - AMAZING Quality, 2K Night Vision ... and NO Subscription Fees??

[@Demon_Pilot_GT]

My son just bought this for me its too dark to install now but looks a real doddle thanks for your video extremely helpful

[@Wisco_Nick]

Thanks for the video.. it gets down to -45 in Wisco when the February winds get blowing!!

[@smartypants1980]

It can get to -30°F here in Milwaukee

Steve, I got a 2 cam package of this camera you're reviewing and I returned the entire thing because I couldn't get the camera to pick up anything other than humans which it did a good job of doing but it wouldn't pick up much else and I ran the camera in the mode to pickup anything, not just humans. I have an Arlo Pro system right now and want to upgrade to something better but to me the motion detection sucked on the Eufy cam. My Arlo will pick up a squirrel at 10 to 20 feet, the Eufy cam was mounted in the same place as the Arlo was but only picked up a squirrel that was on top of my fence right in front of the camera. The cam in question looks out over our back yard bird feeding station and garden etc. The Arlo has picked up many animals at night, fox, coyote, racoon , and stray cats etc but the Eufy seems not to. I had high hopes, I really wanted to love this camera but it was not to be. Anyone else complain about motion sensing being bad?

[@johngreen397]

This post has exactly the info I was looking for. I had the 2C camera package, and also returned it due to poor detection capabilities. I was hoping maybe this more expensive camera would be an improvement, but it seems like it's not. I need something that will detect both humans and vehicles. No vehicle detection is a deal breaker for me.

[@barstool100]

@@johngreen397 I need to say with !!!!!, I had high hopes for the Eufy cams, they seem well made and I like much of the good about them. The fact that the base unit can act as a stand alone wify repeater is really a great option. Some things need to be fixed in the software regarding the App, like how do you delete a bunch of motion videos all at once? Maybe I missed how to do it but I had to delete each one at a time. In anycase, color me sad that it fell short on the motion detection. Else I'd have the system installed right now.

[@ceciliasaikeo8371]

I totally agree!! I just bought these cameras for my front door and garage area. We tested the cameras before mounting. The camera did not pick up a person waking up to the camera starting at 30 feet away, until they were just a couple feet away and leaving the frame. The garage camera didn’t pick up a person at all when walking by and entering gate as it was about 20 feet away. When a person is running, there was no footage captured at all. I am returning the Eufycam 2 Pros. My dog was never captured. These results were on the highest sensitivity settings. So disappointing…

[@carterscustomrods]

My issue, so I've heard, is that it has a bad delay that starts recording several seconds after motion sensor is activated. I have that issue with my current cams, and it's what has led me here in a search for a different system. For instance. I had some people creeping through my yard last night... it didn't pick them up until they were almost out if range, and didn't pick them up on the other 3 cameras I have. I've heard all the battery operated cameras have the delay. That only wired cameras have the good motion sensors, that pre-record and get full functionality of motion cameras.... Is this true?

[@ekbolton2506]

@@ceciliasaikeo8371 I purchased a very inexpensive wireless security camera which behaves exactly as you describe, perhaps they are all like this. The motion detection seem to me to be the most critical feature of this type of camera but all the reviewers videos I've watched seem to avoid this issue.

What did you end up with?

Hey. Are you still using this one? If not, how did it go until you replaced it? & what did you replace it with?

[@HackerUC]

Does this camera have a X-second buffer recording? Meaning, shows recording X seconds before motion is detected?

[@moooitw]

No app test? Zone setup video latency or notification tests?

[@eduardo13405]

I just set these up but can’t figure out how I can go back on live view say I wanted go back on my live feed ?

I really like your tech reviews. Well done 👌. Hope to see more interesting tech reviews.

[@apeofspace8727]

How’s the camera’s battery life? Does it really last for 1 year before it needs re-charging?

[@vrod1a]

Can I use this camera without the home base ?

[@mikebedford4362]

I read that Eufy Pro and C Prod disable the ‘Human’ detection at night and instead revert to ‘Detect everything’ - is this the case? I’m concerned that my do and local possums would set it off all over the place!?

[@bishopgeorge1333]

I just pick up the Eufy SoloCam E40 with the solar panel I haven't install it but so far I think that I'm going to like it, it's just for my back yard.

61°F lmao. I’m in Michigan. No joke, when it hits 61° after winter, that’s like beach weather for us Great review btw, thanks

[@larrye2679]

Thank you for the review. I have 2 questions. 1. Did you say that the base station acts as a wifi extender? I had a store representative tell me that my present wifi was not strong enough to reach out to the back of my house. 2. When putting the cameras on the inside do they have a port for AC power instead of having to use batteries? Cheers😀

[@fmpabxx7834]

I live in Anchorage Alaska. You don't wunna know. Good review.

[@AndrePomales]

Probably a dumb question but just so I understand correctly, the camera doesn’t record 24/7 but only when it detects motion, correct?

[@carterscustomrods]

That's true.. from what I gather

[@bryanthompson4323]

Correct

[@omarr7825]

I love my Arlo, but the subscription is a pain, welcome home EUFY 🥰

[@millbean13]

I like the cameras. Just a shame HomeKit doesn’t support anything more than 1080p.

[@imkputtz]

Do u like the 2c better as it has the spot light?

[@HARLEY20LOL]

I recently found your channel thank you for all the useful videos, I recently bought Arlo which sucks because you need to subscribe for the cloud & the base station is only accessible when home & there’re out of stock lmao, I don’t want to pay for extra fees, so thank you for your videos!

[@joeb8725]

Can it be plugged in for continuous charging? Also Is there an option to record continuously?

[@CleoMoera]

Does it take images of every car that passes by?

[@1chrisrowe]

Steve, could you add a side-by-side with the 2 Pro and 2C Pro Night Vision?

[@H3avyHaul3r]

how can i turn off the led on my eufy cam so it doesn’t make those aware that it’s recording

[@ovaismalikvo]

I believe that's under the settings he went over under led light.

The camera mounted on the front of your house is on a mount different than those provided by Eufy. It is just what I need for my camera location. What is it and what can it be purchased?

[@MrDwightSchrute]

Hey! Did you find an answer? :)

[@stevebates3573]

Looking to purchase this , question is does it have to initially be plugged in ethernet for initial setup or can wifi off the gate.

[@WiLmAn07]

Pretty sure only Ethernet

[@ceciliasaikeo8371]

Love your videos! I finally pulled the trigger and purchased the Eufy 2 Pro. Sadly, it does not capture a person unless they are a few feet from the camera. It only starts to record once a person is a few feet away. Walking up to my front door from 30 feet away only captures the person passing the camera and leaving the frame. When running, a person is not recorded. My dog is not captured, even on the most sensitive settings. This is so disappointing…Sigh…I’m returning the cameras!

[@ginta1245]

[@Videpedia]

I heard that all Eufy devices can only work if you have 2 separate bands, 2.4g and 5g, at home. IF you have a mesh network that combines 2.4g and 5g into one SSID then their devices will not work. True ? Anyone ?

16G but upgradable to 128G I believe

[@cosmicprincesA1234]

good review, for eufy 2 pro, How far can you place the camera from the home base unit and still get footage? Like if your storage house (with no Internet connection) is about 80 to100 meters from where you live. ,would wifi Extention unit(or a router like Asus ZenWiFi AX) allows additional distance between camera and home base unit in this case? and how many add-on camras can the home base unit handle beside the two included in box?

[@Tennessee_Plumbing]

So lets say i go to bed at 9pm and wake up at 6am. If someone leaves my house at 3am, can i wake up at 6am and view who left my house at 3am?

Eufy doesn't have a powerful outdoor siren or a flash light. Burglars are mainly startled by a powerful siren, which the Eufy system cannot offer! 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 homebase! And the beeping sound from the camera or the Eufy homebase is far from powerful. A pitty for Eufy security system and a missed opportunity.

It´s not continuos recording. It records only when it detects motion, so the time it takes to fill up the memory card depends on how much motion it detects in your back yard.
