Almost jump in until realized that this is 1080p camera.
I thought Eufy was known with its 2k camera quality. I will replace my ring floodlight if the 2k camera is on sale at this price.
AFAIK, Arlo is the only company that makes a 2K floodlight camera. Eufy is currently working on its next gen floodlight camera which presumably would be higher than 1080P.
For a completely wired solution (with built-in storage, no less) I don't understand why this isn't set up the same way as their Indoor cameras, which allows 24/7 recording to SD card. I love the Indoor 2k camera because it does this plus plugs in perfectly to RTSP which allows me to record to TinyCam also.
I understand why their wireless outdoor cams can't do this, as it would be a terrible drain on battery, but there's no reason 24/7 recording can't be done on wired cameras.
As it is currently I'm using a wasserstein floodlight camera which comes with a Mini-USB jack, and mounting a modified Indoor 2k on it. Works great, but obviously kind of messy looking (plus required me to break the camera's warranty by permanently modifying the camera to be outdoor-safe and mountable).
(AFAIK the same recording limitation exists on their doorbell cameras as well, despite also being hardwired)

Seems like that place doesn't have great reviews.
I've bought from in the past and not had issues. Also ordered this morning and they already shipped it out
