I bought one a couple weeks ago. Really impressed with it. I don't get much sun and it's staying fully charged.

Too many brands. I already have three apps on my phone for the security videos. Even worse, most of them requires subscription to record videos.

Sounds like you purchased without researching and made wrong decisions. Thanks for sharing your personal story.

If one of your apps is the Kasa app, then you're in luck!

I have this camera setup for the last 1 1 /2 years and it's been rock solid down to -8 F and 68% battery charge at the end of February (lowest). Very impressed with its performance so far.

My thoughts too, Im 2 hrs north of mpls and its been at least -10F every night for the past two weeks. Im sure the camera can handle the temps but for the battery staying charged it would be asking a lot.

Do you have one or two brands that you would recommend to someone who hasn't researched looking for solar and no subscription?
