Tp-Link Tapo C500 Outdoor Pan/Tilt Security Wi-Fi Camera

[@sidvanhound]

Tp Link should pay You for this guide! Their "Walk through" misses so many things. Thank You, got mine running fine now.

[@Meothui22]

Splendid video. I was in IT for 2 decades and found TP-Link routers were the most reliable and affordable. DD-WRT makes them even better.

[@uktech]

Thank you for specifying the power adapter power output 12v at 1amp. Thank you 🙏🏽 This is very useful info and after you mentioned this I placed an order for 4 x cameras. I already have a 12v cable running to some old cameras and these TP Link ones will power up perfectly from the existing power.

[@andrewwhite3793]

Looks good but can you 1. Turn the alarm off 2. Just use the camera to monitor and continues recording 3. Do you have to sign up for the free trial 4. Basically can you use it to monitor and record the outside of your front door

[@Nannap04]

Yes you can turn alarm off. You do not have to sign up for free trial. The quality of the camera and recordings are very good. They are great cameras

[@jootpepet]

Watch the damn video its all in there

[@banster9631]

Bought one and great all round and easy to set up to personal requirements. Zoom in if necessary although a sd card can be fitted . Argos has a special deal currently

[@valentispub1]

Can you schedule the camera to move to different marks at certain times? And does the camera return to its original mark after tracking motion?

[@ilovepubg6734]

It just stays there

[@JasonElliott-o8n]

Dose camera run all day or Dose it only come on when see some one

[@dustywheelsrc]

You can set it to either recird just motion or do 24/7 recording (records all the time) you can manage that in the camera settings​@JasonElliott-o8n

[@AjitKumar-tq5nj]

Great review! I have a question. Is it possible to watch the pictures and video in Fire Tv using Alexa app?

[@danmitu2650]

Hello the alarm sound it's on camera speaker directly in case of intrusion?Or it's only on the phone? Thanks for the answer.

[@3voice88]

How long does one charging last?

[@AdventureVanLife]

Can you have it so the footage shares like having a live webcam??

[@d3ftstylz862]

Hey Andrew, was wondering if there was a power adapter or do we have to run it to the PowerPoint?

[@mastersquall]

My camera has an adapter with it.

[@nitinkumar-vf7wj]

Adapter comes with it.

[@narddevos]

Good explanation! Thanks to you I just ordered this cam. Greetings from Nick from the Netherlands. subscriber :)

[@TechGuruAndrew]

Thanks for watching, glad i can help 🙂

[@mattparr3038]

Hello, just bought one. But i wonder if i can see and hear camera in real time if im away from home. Also control etc.

[@arvinsantos2002]

Yes

[@TuningLovers]

Hi, for long distances is Ezviz C8PF? Can it's zoom cover 150m, does the zoom really make a difference in clearing things, for example a car plate number?

[@piotrekjachowicz4304]

Do you know what the static field of view angel of the camera is without rotation? I don't see this info on tapo website

[@frankie65th]

you sold me, my friend, I have the really old version, it died, and now I have ordered it. there is a 2k version but unavailable where I am, but what I want it for is perfect. Am I correct in remembering it can follow movement with motion detect? or it always is on, as in if a ca or bird walks past?

[@celaena7876]

Do we need SD card if were using cloud?

[@mastersquall]

Can we insert any type of SD Card or it requires certain type of SD Card.

[@TechGuruAndrew]

any sd card class 10 max 512gb

[@uktech]

Go for a good branded card as the camera will be recording over and over onto the card.

[@JuicyGrootsTVVlogs]

double check sd card. bought 5 pcs of this and I also bought 5 512sd card. didn't work. what only works is 128gb sd card

[@nitinkumar-vf7wj]

But it support upto 512gb it's written on amazon description clearly. 😢

[@JuicyGrootsTVVlogs]

@@nitinkumar-vf7wj exactly. False advertisement. Bought 128gb now and all of them works fine as hell

[@eleanorjentas798]

Can u get an extension cable for this if the 3 metre cable is not long enough? Also does it trigger every time someone goes past as i live on a main street so would not want notified constantly. Can this be adjusted?

[@MalChicho1]

It can be installed outside the home and supports temperatures below zero and has batteries or not to install solar panels, thanks

[@zodiark2456]

the c500 is an outdoor camera and Operating Temperature:-30℃~60℃(-22°F ~140 °F )

[@nithinvarghese1739]

Can access the camera app from two devices at same time

[@juansanguinetticuestas1148]

yes

[@nanorow7914]

Can i choose the timing of recording For example record only at night

[@user-ns7vj4tz5h]

Please advise, I have a Tapo C500 Security Camera. Sometimes the person detection dosen't work when someone is passing from the marked zone. Also I have installed the camera on front of the house and wanted to cover front porch and a part of the road where I have parked my car. The problem is that the camera can cover either road or my front porch, so if I keep the camera view on the road and mark the front porch with turning on motion detection then would it be possible for the camera to move from road angle to porch angle and then go back to the same position??

[@mada1812]

Are functia de a se misca automat dupa persoana?

[@Donizzs]

Is it possible to set up motion tracking with horizontal patrol?

[@mastersquall]

Yes

[@Donizzs]

@@mastersquall thank you!!!

[@CricketGuruji15]

Thanks for the Video. I have a Doubt, The Alarm system is automatic like if person is detected then it automatically sounds or do we have to do manually? Waiting for your reply.❤

[@nitinkumar-vf7wj]

Automatic

[@blackdoublezero]

Hi, can you use without tapo cloud care service ? if so what functions do you get without the service ?

[@ea9431]

Έλληνας σίγουρα , γεια σου ρε Αντρέα

[@Deswina1000]

Can this camera be installed without the cord? Or must it always be plugged into electricity socket?

[@BiggieB1979]

Great review. Does somebody knows of this cam is compatible with te nas( surveillance station) . Thanks in advance

[@jt19767171]

Can you cut the BIG wlan wire if you only need wifi?

[@jeffwarren4444]

How close does the wi fi hub need to be to camera in order to work correctly.

[@Casey-Jones]

2km

[@harrisabdulwahab]

Should review outdoor because it's an outdoor cctv

[@theoa17000]

Man i dont want to pay any subscription to the application, can i storage my video only with 64gb SD card I have buy already with this camera ? Please tell me guys ASAP before I install the camera..

[@luckysquid5551]

Hi, at night, is there flash turned on?

[@ElPachat]

Sound quality is great ? Really ? How much have you been paid to said that ?

[@Meothui22]

Do you expect sound quality same as $10k home theater on a $35 camera? Pathetic.

[@ElPachat]

@@Meothui22 For the same price an eufy is really above this shitty camera. No need to get an home theater. Mr Truc Tran, your brand sucks.

[@jootpepet]

Clearly you never owned a cctv in your life

[@ElPachat]

@@jootpepet yes never of course... The sound is shit compare to eufy cam. Maybe tplink pay well internet trolls

I think tp link will launch a dolby atmos camera very soon 😂

[@timoteimich6661]

Can you access it through the app while not in proximity, or you need to be connected to the same Wi-Fi the camera is?

[@indianfuturelions1307]

I think C500 is not like that i bought it today when i connected to same wifi network it work smoothly but when i connected to mobile network/ using mobile data it does not play video.

[@Geetiful]

Why 512gb sandisk extreme pro is not working, tapo c500 is failed to format the micro SD card. I've read the same issue from a comment from other tapo c500 review video.

[@nitinkumar-vf7wj]

Try switching tapo off and on.

[@sameersalaman]

The motion videos in playback always lagging behind, I mean they don't run smoothly. Do you have the same problem???

[@VIJAYPATEL-uu7rt]

DOES IT REQUIRE ALL TIME WIFI ???

[@takis79gr]

I notice there is no push notification when the tapo application is off? I am right?

[@issac1114]

Can we use this camera in mobile hotspot for internet instead of broadband wifi.

[@yoboyharry]

Yes, any connection works.

[@thecyborg6718]

How you adjust time?

[@RamGujjar_1313]

Why does it sound at the time of rotation?

[@Chris-vc1dh]

does it turn automatically?

[@Rishabh_Jain23]

Can we zoom in and out in this camera?

[@jpcapobianco1979]

I had problem with audio recorded something is wrong with the mic. Also when i reboot i lost the sd card. I resended back to amazon

[@slishnevsky]

Is alarm coming from the phone or from the camera?

[@chemistree6558]

From camera, you can enable it using your phone

[@Yuvrajtomar0]

if we access the camera from outside the network

[@LuigiCotocea]

Hello, I need your help, although the camera is very good. But if I connect from data, the other WiFi freezes and is too slow, is there any setting to fix it???

[@DavidCurrie-lo9jd]

very helpful thank you for uploading!

[@Bruno_AFK]

I have a question, and it's difficult for me to find an answer to it, so I hope you can help me. During nighttime recording (any mode), is it possible to make the camera not display any light? I'm asking this mostly for the IR-only mode so that the red LED lights are not visible.

[@missionDan]

If there isnt a setting (previous tp link cams have always had a lights off setting, black nail varnish over the led would work if desperate

Great review,

[@TechGuruAndrew]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@gurrenlagaan9109]

why is it lagging?

[@Formastic]

For me, this camera becomes useless in cold weather lower than -10 degrees celsius. At -16 it becomes close to non-functional. I wonder if it becomes an iceblock at -20 degrees celsius which is around the corner. Works fine at warmer temperatures. Dissapointing... Greetings from Norway.

Works great for 1-3 days then goes offline and needs resetting ...happens every 1-3 days , anyone else having this same issue? No other wi-fi device in the house has any problems.

[@grantmail4112]

I've now set up auto-reboot at a certain time each day to see it that helps as it was turned off.

[@ditalistdiary]

​@@grantmail4112 hi, is it working? I'm planning to buy between this version (c500) or c510.

[@grantmail4112]

@@ditalistdiary Hi, I will wait a week and see if setting the auto re-boot option fixed the problem, but this may just be down to my own wi-fi connection. The c500 is very high quality and tracks action very well.. I wouldnt say it was worth upgrading to the c510 as the quality is still very high and sharp on the c500 unless you just would like the very best spec.

[@raystefano]

Any clue on how far the wifi will reach to the modem and still have a decent data traffic and connection? 10m? Or even further away?
