Just a datapoint since I bought this last month. I have this situated outside where it gets 2-3 hours of direct sunlight in Seattle. The battery only gets 20-30% of the sunlight needed to sustain itself in perpetuity. With this setup, I'm losing about 2% a day with 1-2 recording a day (default 20seconds) to 5% a day with 5-10 recordings. I tried 3 different cameras in case it was faulty with same results.

The camera is projected to require a manual recharge once a month.

If I was to do it over again, I'd get the other eufy camera without solar that advertises 6 months of battery life on a single charge.

Thanks for your practical analysis. I am on the fence to get this as well, as the price - $70 a camera - seems just right.

If not this, which camera model are your planning to get?

Thanks a lot.

Probably Eufycam 2C (1080p) or S300 (4K). The main downside is it costs more if you don't have the base station already. It advertises 6 months of battery life on one charge.

Does S300 require hard wiring for power? Also does it require Home Base 3?
I would like to have at least 2K quality, and 4K is even better.
Thanks

I have this model I have had since last fall in my backyard. I only charged it myself once when I first installed it and have not had to charge it since.

So basically the solar charging seems to be enough.
How's the quality of pic.
Any Pros / Cons?
Thanks

Great camera if you just need a single shot / angle. Thinking of returning mine and grabbing the 360 s340

This particular model (S220) does not have the white LED 'spotlight'. You might be thinking of the S230.

I have 2 of these and have never had to charge them at all. I took one down for a few days to remodel and it came right back on when I put it back up.
