I bought my outdoor cameras from Costco and returned them. They do not record 24/7. Motion detection is poor if you mount the cameras at a decent height (10+ feet), they do not detect motion well at all.
I have five other Eufy cameras at my home and two of these cameras at a family member's house. The cameras are fairly good in all situations but work better in brightly lit areas. Setup takes time but it's very flexible. I can't comment much on their AI capabilities as I don't use them. Straight motion detection works in my situation.
The tilt/pan is responsive enough and the two-way communication is mostly usable, however there will be lag depending on your network, etc. If the solar panel gets direct sun for a few hours a day, you'll never need to charge it. It can be mounted away from the camera unit as well. I haven't experienced any failures due to high temperature or humidity (I'm in south Forida).
My main complaints are with the app. Notifications could be more flexible. I don't need a reminder every minute that a camera picked up motion. Sometimes there are up to three different notification icons in the app alerting you to Eufy's other products. I suppose that's just the way of the world now but it's annoying.
For this particular set, the Homebase 2 is the limiting factor. I don't think the HB2 is expandable. I have the next better homebase (S380) and I added 1TB of storage.
