GNCC W1 Outdoor Battery Cam - Unboxing and Review. Impressive for the price

The GNCC W1 Battery Cam is an excellent choice if you want to get started with security cameras or need something simple to look after a shed or garage. There's no need for wiring as the W1 camera is battery-powered (about 2 weeks life and rechargeable) and uses Wi-Fi to connect back to a hub, which supports local storage to keep recordings safe without paying monthly fees. Image quality (1080p) is great both during the day and at night and there's two-way audio if you need to talk to someone at the camera. Couple of minor niggles (can't change recording length, app doesn't show thumbnails, limited upgrade options) prevent it from being perfect.

How can you remove energy save mode. It detects late and doesn’t get the entire recording

15:53 Does the hub require an Ethernet cable for connection to the home network? I don't see any instructions for adding w wifi. Thanks.

Yes, the hub needs to be hardwired into your home network. Although it's a bit annoying, it's often done like this to ensure service / feed / stream quality between the hub and the cameras. When I've had the situation that the hub is far from the router, I've used Powerline adapters. There can be some 'gotchas' with those such as when your house has multiple circuits so maybe borrow or buy secondhand until you know it works. Devolo is reliable brand in that space.
