The camera detected my wife as a pet 😅

[@Dani-zg7fr]

My tapo c325wb cam sometimes detects cats and chickens as persons, my tapo c520ws sometimes detects my couch as a person, and my tapo c225 sometimes detects my wife and my kids as pets 😂

Great video, tx. I was going to use two of these guys on the corner of my house, one pointing along one wall, another pointing into the backyard but they will be very close to one another. Have you ever tried using the solar panel to maintain charge to two cameras using a 'Y' USB connector? It apparently takes 30 minutes of sun a day to keep one charged. Therefore it should require maybe an hr to maintain two cameras?

[@TechWithBrett]

I haven't tried that. I'm not sure if it will work because the output from the solar panel wouldn't be enough to give the camera enough charge.

[@carlw]

​@@TechWithBrettThat's what I thought too but their info says 30min to charge in sun. So with two, at half charge one hour for both. I did a search and the company doesn't recommend it likely because they want you to buy one panel per light. Electronically, there's no reason why it wouldn't work just like a partly cloudy day also wouldn't provide maximum charge. Same thing.

[@ayaansiddiqui541]

can you do Echo spot next

[@PestandLawnGinja]

🎉🎉🎉
I need these

[@ByronUK]

If you can plug a solar panel into it, can you run the usb cable into a mains plug and have it plugged in charging constantly ?

[@TechWithBrett]

Yes you can keep it plugged in. Just not sure about it getting wet like that.

[@Danny-nc3co]

How well does it integrate with Google Home?

[@TechWithBrett]

It is able to show the camera pretty quickly on my Nest Hub. There is no option to view the Camera in the Google Home app.

[@AlexRocks24-7]

Wow 👌

[@MattRobloxYT1]

How long is charging?

[@TechWithBrett]

I've been charging for 1 hour and it went from 20 to 45%. So maybe just a couple of hours.

[@monkeyhaters9258]

Just got one of these cameras 2 days ago it took 8 hours to charge it to 60% and that was it.! Other than that the camera works great Better than reolink Which I've had nothing but problems with..!!🤦‍♂️

[@googlehas]

@Tech With Bret. Hi., Google pixel 8 pro? 2024 ? Google Nest

[@EOTE_TX]

Ok, based on your review I thought the camera was possibly a good one. Ordered it from Amazon and after installing, I fount out it does NOT support RSTP for 3rd party apps. Constantly looking at your cellphone to view the camera is not a good option. Sending it back.

[@kevingarfield2094]

Can you review something like the Ubiquiti G5 Pro...
You always review something that's Chinese, Wireless and easily hackable 🙄

[@TechWithBrett]

Thanks for the feedback. I'll add it to the list.

[@ironcladpatriot5829]

The majority of goods in the United States originate from China.

[@jcm9698]

Ubiquiti cameras are manufactured in China, no difference....
