Community Reviews
The SoloCam S40 is a solar outdoor camera best known for its built in spotlight and color night vision, with a slightly larger solar panel than the S220. The image quality and wireless setup get strong praise, and the lack of subscription fees keeps the value appealing at $40. The main concern is durability, since water intrusion has been linked to battery failure, dead units, and LED problems after one to three years. Charging can also struggle in shade, winter, or awkward mounting spots, so it works best where it gets steady sun.
The S40 can keep charging outdoors for multiple years in some climates.
The S40 includes built-in spotlight lighting for color night vision.
External solar panels can help when direct sun charging underperforms.
DIY weatherproofing with PlastiDip can reduce water seepage and help prevent yellowing.
Water intrusion can occur after about one to three years outdoors and can lead to battery issues and LED diode failure.
Solar charging and connectivity can fail depending on mounting and solar panel location.
The S40 can drain battery faster when the night spotlight activates randomly.
Video playback from SD card can take a long time to load for solar camera setups.

I don't hang them, just put them on a log or box out in the yard.... never had any issues so far. I don't know if the sleeves help, but it covers everything up except the solar panel....
Just went out the other day and dug my cameras out of the snow.
I recently put a newer model with ai on my backporch. It's cool. Eufy is much better than the Flock associated brands.
The Tapo cam stays connected to my Wifi, stays 100% charged all of the time so I was able to turn up all of the sensitivity settings and anything else that normally eats the battery and then there's the picture quality: it's like night and day and to me that is the biggest selling point. This was my first Tapo cam and as much as I don't like solar powered ones if I had to get another it would be one of these.
Edit: I also forgot to mention the detection settings, I don't think eufy has vehicle notification, my normal ones don't. Tapo does and it works well

Get the S220 over this. The WIFI is better. Yes you get a spotlight but it will drain your battery faster when it randomly activates at night. I would sell mine if I didn't get it as a free replacement over my E40s I got rid of. You will need Homebase 3 for it to work best. Otherwise prepare to buffer and constantly fail watching video alerts when recording is in process.
No water issue with mine like the E40. Yellowing occurs on the spotlight lens and typically peeling off the solar panel within the first year for me in 90% sun all year round. The battery will drain if you select anything other than best battery mode.
