Know that even hard-wired, this thing won't overcome the limitations of most battery-powered cameras.
There's no pre-rolled, meaning most of the recordings are of a person already in frame, or some cases walking off the frame. And most of the recordings are still in the 10-12 seconds range, no matter how much settings you do. It pisses me off!
edit*
unlike the Wyze, this offers onboard non-expandable storage of 8GB. in order to get the claimed 60 days worth of clips it had to be real frugal with the recordings, limiting it to about 12 secs (just like Wyze cloud storage back in the day, but this time locally)
Eufy also limits RTSP to 1080p due to their impl of v1 RTSP instead of v2/v3. Was really optimistic for eufy with my nvr (frigate) but until they get 2k output via RTSP ill look elsewhere.
This is not true. I have lots of videos that are 40-50 seconds long. But it does eat up battery quickly. I only only lasted 2 weeks before having to charge it lol

I have 3 of these, the 2kdoorbell, the homebase2 and 2 solar panels and they are not a very good investment. Hardware wise they are good, the batteries last forever when tuned properly for motion, but their customer support is terrible, and they constantly push buggy firmware to all the devices.
Issues you can expect to run into are poor motion detection, motion zones not working at all, disconnects from the homebase, as these cameras connect directly to the base station instead of your router, the doorbell randomly ringing by itself, and the latest one is notifications for motion alerts that are an hour and a half late.
This is totally a tangent, but ever since discovering ESP32 CAM and building my own cameras, I see a price like this that I used to think was good and my immediate throught is, "That's like 5 or 6 ESPCAM's"
I know, they're not the same, not for the same applications, and have very different characteristics and considerations.
These Eufy cameras are GREAT, except they cannot continuously record. For that reason and that reason alone, I have an entire Eufy system for sale and switched to Lorex PoE system.

The C22 and C24 would have worked for you, but if you need 24/7 recording, POE is always going to be the best solution, hope you got a good UPS on it, in case of power outage.

Power Manager > Customize recording > set clip time to 30 secs (or your choice) > UNCHECK the box that says "end clip early if motion stops."
Of course, as you would have guessed, all clips are now 30 seconds, even the short ones, but it's still better than before.
To clarify to a couple users that have commented, my camera DOES record extended clips, if you're up close and is constantly moving in-center.
It all goes back, as some users have mentioned, to the crappy motion detection EUFY cameras have compared to some others...

This works "exclusively" with the EufySecurity app, and nothing else.
