Wireless Home Security System with 180-Day Battery Life // eufyCam 2C 2-Cam Kit Review

[@goodrising2609]

5 days into my EUFY 2C ! For my garage/alley, it's very sensitive to motion, constant notifications, and my alley's city lights allow me to see in color at night w/ IR LEDS turned off, (good for hidden camera bc camera lights don't turn on). If cars drive by fast, they aren't always captured, and I can never(day/night) see inside CAR WINDOWS, blury. SOUND captured is loud but not clear enough to make out all words. Love that we can speak through the MICROPHONE to scare illwilled people off, and that we can turn the SPOTLIGHT on at will.

[@DigitalDavid]

I love the microphone feature too! ~B

[@kezonline]

A very thorough review. Now into my 1st day with these camera's guided by your great presentation!!

[@DigitalDavid]

Thanks so much! How has your experience been after 3 years?!

[@johnnymark8888]

Great review really well done on the specifics. Impressed with the presentation quality, and the cameras in-depth software capabilities. Cheers

[@DigitalDavid]

Thanks so much!!

[@kat78681]

Great walk-through! All the steps felt very familiar when I set my system up.

[@DigitalDavid]

Thanks! ~B

[@grh7399]

You did a wonderful job, DD...............Let's go Blue!

[@pmr413]

Just ordered these a few days ago. Very informative review, I didn't know about the motion and door sensors so I'll be ordering a few of those. Also have not seen anyone else covering all the details on the setup of the cameras. Thanks for that! ~Pat

[@DigitalDavid]

Glad you liked it! Thanks for watching! ~B

[@davidtate7699]

how do u like it so far? i was thinking of getting the same model also how does the recording work can? can u view ur past library or is it like arlo u cant see ur libary without paying for cloud storage

[@pmr413]

@@davidtate7699 Overall I like them. However, I have one facing the street with the sensitivity set to high. It captures about 100 video clips per day and the battery only last a week, so I have that one to a power plug in the garage all the time. The other batteries seem to last 60-90 days. The resolution is just okay. I was expecting better for 1080p. I would advise stepping up to at least 2K. The app is really easy to use. I also have one of their indoor cameras at my 93 Y.O. dads house to keep an eye on his safety tied into the app. Nice to have them all under the same app. As for storage, the home base has 16 gig of storage. So you can download videos you want to keep or they will get written over at some point. Mine seem to be there for around 60 days before they are gone. I've been meaning to do a review on my own channel. I just have not had time to get to it. Best of luck, Pat

Hi David, thanks for the great review. I was thinking of getting this security system for my business. I have one question if u could help me please. How many cameras can you hook up to the home base? Thanks and keep up the good work 👍🏽

[@mattzimmermann5984]

It states up to 16 cameras. communitysecurity.eufylife.com/t/homebase2-camera-limit/212044/4

16

[@billbaud]

Super professional videos. And I think I will be getting a Eufy.

[@DigitalDavid]

Love to hear it!

[@bettyboop1524]

FYI it comes with a metal pin for resetting no need for a "pin or paperclip". It's in the blue envelope - don't throw away.

[@DigitalDavid]

Good looking out! ~B

[@robdrury3359]

hi great tutorial simple yet informative just wondering if you can have the alarm go off when the cameras detect movement as well as receiving notifications thanks

[@DigitalDavid]

Yes, you can! ~B

[@BarryMcCockinna]

Glad I bought this with the doorbell camera. Looking forward to setting them up.

[@DigitalDavid]

Hope you are happy with it! ~B

[@BarryMcCockinna]

@@DigitalDavid Yeah it held up well over the course of the year.

[@itsallmakebelieve9151]

5:43 How big is the app exactly? It seems your hair has grown during the download? Great review. : )

[@DigitalDavid]

Bahaha it took weeks to download 😂😂😂

[@bobkranzke2397]

I can read the instructions myself. Thanks.

[@DigitalDavid]

LOL Fair enough! ~B

[@zangetsu85lara16]

Is the alarm can only be trigger manually?

[@josephgioielli]

The start of the video made me nearly jump out of my skin. LOL Yup, that's effective.

[@peterg8872]

Great review! Actually I am comparing Eufy and Reolink cameras.. They have similar features but it seems Reolink cams work with solar panel but Eufy cams don't. Any suggestions?

[@ELEVOPR]

Yes, they do. look up solar panels for Eufy on Amazon. I saw one today.

[@yenghooitan5666]

Is this camera able to take photo snapshots at a predetermined interval, regardless of motion detection? I would like to periodically see what's going on outside my garage and this feature would meet that intent. The Ring Stick up battery camera can do this so I'm wondering if this can as well

[@DigitalDavid]

Unfortunately, the eufyCam 2C does not have a feature to take photo snapshots at predetermined intervals, regardless of motion detection. However, it does have a "Continuous Recording" option that allows you to keep the camera recording all the time, which may accomplish what you're looking for. You can also use the app to view the live stream from the camera at any time, so you can always check in on what's happening outside your garage. cnl

[@robdrury3359]

Hi David, in a family situation can more than one person use the app individually. I would appreciate your help thank you...

[@DigitalDavid]

I think so, but didn't actually try that. Maybe the manufacturer can answer that for you ~N

[@phhu4175]

Thanks for a great review. Are you able to view live videos on your cell phone when you are not at home? If yes, do you have to configure anything on your wireless router?

[@Cagefighter]

Yes you can, and no you don't

[@DigitalDavid]

Yes, you can! -MB

[@stepheneurosailor1623]

Great Review,I was going to get Arlo 3 this changed my mind.

[@DigitalDavid]

Glad it helped ya with your decision! ~B

[@Tech.reviews1]

Very nice camera thank you for review I will buy it now

[@DigitalDavid]

Awesome!! Glad you liked it! ~B

[@Sam34369]

Are those recordings stored in backup? Is 16gb enough? Is 180 days battery life only for cameras or it also includes the device storage?

[@DigitalDavid]

You'll have to ask the brand directly! -MB

[@afrosamuri05]

Does this also come with cloud storage? And can you monitor the cameras when your at work?

[@DigitalDavid]

You can pay extra for cloud storage, and you can monitor them from anywhere! ~B

[@aussietechie6625]

Does the base really have to connected to the ethernet / wifi for the whole thing to work? I mean, can the base be standalone (without connected to wifi/ethernet) so that the mobile phone can just communicate with the cameras via the base?

[@DigitalDavid]

I wish I could remember :( ~B

[@losmoore3358]

Good video. Are all Eufy products be mix and match ?

[@DigitalDavid]

Thanks! All Eufy cameras other than SoloCams and wired cams are compatible with the released versions of Homebase, Eufy's security system base. ~B

[@mohammedsultan1768]

Hello ... can you tell me how far can i mount the cameras away from the base in meters please ? And what is i have poor connection do they still work

[@DigitalDavid]

I think how ever far your wifi can reach. ~B

[@Peterderoode]

Nice system but 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.

[@DigitalDavid]

Thanks for the feedback! ~B

[@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 ?

[@DigitalDavid]

It's true that some Eufy devices, including the eufyCam 2C 2-Cam Kit, require a 2.4GHz Wi-Fi network to function. If your mesh network combines 2.4GHz and 5GHz frequencies into a single SSID, it may cause compatibility issues with the eufyCam 2C 2-Cam Kit or other Eufy devices that rely on a 2.4GHz network. However, it's worth noting that Eufy has released firmware updates in the past that have improved the compatibility of their devices with mesh networks. If you're unsure about whether your specific mesh network is compatible with the eufyCam 2C 2-Cam Kit, it may be worth reaching out to Eufy's customer support for further assistance. Overall, it's important to ensure that your network meets the requirements of any smart home devices you plan to use in order to avoid compatibility issues and ensure that everything works as intended. cnl

Does this product work looking from overseas?

As long as you have wifi overseas! ~B

Hi Do you have play monthly for service

Nope!

[@zenassolomon]

i just got these cam yesterday is it a setting you have to enable to make it catch a still pic of your face? never saw any of my videos do that

[@DigitalDavid]

I didn't change any settings, so I'm not sure what to tell ya :( maybe it has something to do with the lighting or it not getting a good enough angle of your face! Or maybe there is a setting you need to select.. I'm really not sure though. ~B

[@dantristanbautista9234]

Hi, can I access the camera through 4G when I'm not home? thanks.

Yes you can

You should be able to! cnl

[@fnaticmedia]

First of all thank you so much for your detailed video. I do have a quick question / issue on Homebase2 connection to my router. I do have tp-link Deco X20 mesh system, when I try to connect my homebase2 with the internet , it has blue blinking light only and then I could see error message "Network Exception, please try again later." With an error screen titled "Unable to add HoemBase2". Could you please help me out? I tried everything reset, unplug power cable, router restart,reset button on homebase2 but it just keep blinking blue led. Help would be highly appreciated 🙏🏼

[@DigitalDavid]

I'm sorry to hear that you're having trouble connecting your eufyCam 2C HomeBase2 to your router. Have you tried connecting the HomeBase2 to a different router or network to see if the issue persists? If the issue only occurs with your current router, it's possible that there may be a compatibility issue between the two devices. You can also try contacting eufy customer support for further assistance and troubleshooting steps specific to your situation. cnl

[@ArtificialJetleg]

what's the FOV? it's 180 degrees?

[@johngreydanus2033]

180? heck no, 135 all you get

Hi, I'm sorry but I am confused, I thought the Hub has storage enough for 30 days looping; if this is the case then where does No Monthly Fee come to play? if there is a free cloud, then why the manual doesn't show how to access it?

[@DigitalDavid]

I believe you can subscribe for even more cloud storage instead of being limited to the 30 day loop ~B
