FWIW, I bought this camera, not on sale, for surveillance purposes outdoors and indoor. Mind you im on the basic package so I didn't have any features such as 24/7 monitoring, etc. I like the magnetic swivel mounts on these. The resolution is also fantastic, has a good wide angle, and it can pick up pretty good audio.

However, I do not like that there is a delay of video capturing triggered by motion. There is at least a 2 second delay to these to start capturing. If the object in video is moving at a fast speed or turns a corner outside of the viewing angle, chances are that the Arlo will not capture the "moment" of things happening. The Arlo does pick up motion pretty well, so if you have a long hallway or driveway, it'll detect motion and start recording once the target is in your hallway, not entering. For that reason, I'm returning and looking for an installer to install a NVR/PoE system.
Hi CrimsonScent and others

FYI - the ability to capture license plates during the day so that you're able read them depends on how many effective pixels you can get on the license plate. While higher resolution is better for this - remember it is effective pixels on target.

The 4K cameras from Arlo have very wide FOVs, which reduces the "range" - and with compression to reduce cloud storage and bandwidth you get less effective pixels.

For a better idea of how FOV camera resolution affects the theoretical ID distance ( and also license plate reading ability ) see the ID distance chart in
https://slickdeals.net/f/10409612-lorex-dahua-oem-6x-4k-8mp-security-camera-system-w-8-port-poe-ip-nvr-2tb-hdd-kit-at-costco-b-m-ymmv-for-799-99

Also - night time license plate capture is challenging due to the reflective nature of plates - so you will need to custom tune the camera to just capture plates to read. ( see ipcamtalk lpr section for more info on this )
I don't know about range, but main difference is it doesn't have built-in siren and cannot connect Arlo Pro 3 cameras. The small base station is either 3000 or 3500 model. See KB article here: https://kb.arlo.com/000062284/Wha...se-station

Is this the model with proprietary batteries? I'm researching and not finding it.

This was advertised in the Costco Black Friday mailer as starting 11/25 and being $329.99. $279.99 and starting early is quite a surprise (mistake?). Great deal

Dumb question, I have been able to purchase items in the past online as a non Costco member, this one doesn't seem available to purchase as a non member, correct?

Seems like a good deal. I am in, especially with Costco return policy.

I caution everyone, you really need a 4k camera to see details like a license plate. I'm getting the 4k version with 3 cameras at Sam's club. $719

The item page says "camera system" but I don't see anything (specs/details, pictures) about the Arlo hub being included. Can anyone confirm if it is included?

I believe the other shortfall is the base station doesn't have a USB drive for storing footage. Looking at Costco reviews this one seems pretty inadequate.
