I'm hoping the floodlights go on sale soon as well.
Wiring up the light was far easier than a doorbell for my home, and I liked that the camera was less obvious than a Ring or Nest doorbell camera. I'd recommend.
I'm hoping the floodlights go on sale soon as well.
The AI is nice since I know if it's a person or vehicle at a glance at the notification.

BUT, the Kuna is a pretty polished product. ive found it to perform really well.
I questioned their subscription cost but honestly their performance/quality is better than most if not all the other cloud based security. And they seem to know it too with the high price. I think they only advertise as 720P, but a lot of manufacturers are playing with people's head advertising 1080P. The resolution is 1080P but you sure as hell are not getting high quality with the low bitrate. Kuna's 720P looks better in comparison to others advertising 1080P or at least on par. Heck, they can just upscale the resolution and claim 1080P.
These cloud base systems can never provide good quality because it relies on the cloud and higher quality will require more bandwith not just for you but for the company's storage and you know they aren't going to provide that.
Whats really nice about the kuna/maximus is most people wont even realize there is a camera because it looks like standard light fixture. And its not powered by batteries so you dont have to worry about recharging.
These still aren't for power users because i dont think there is any integration with smart homes or nvrs etc. But this is what i would recommend for average consumer.
EDIT, for those wondering you can use these without a subscription. You are just limited on how long they store your video. You pretty much have to review it within 2-3 hours I believe. And you only have limited amount of downloads of the vids each month.
Fun fact (accurate as of 2 years ago when I first bought the premium subscription) they still keep the videos on their servers, just won't have access to it. At that time, I had an incident that requires me to reach past the 2 hours, I paid for the subscription and was able to retrieve it.
