hello i have a question Does this camera work on Wi-Fi or not? Or is there an annual subscription in its own application? Does the Wi-Fi get weak when I connect the camera to it? Please reply and clarify because I want to buy it?
The camera works via Wi-Fi, unfortunately I got locked out of mine when my broadband changed and I was unable to log back into it, I now no longer have this camera
@@lloydaom Please do you advise me to buy this camera or not? And what is its application system, is it working well or not? I hope you can advise me before I buy one and spend my money on it?
@@HussamNasser I didn’t forget the details it wouldn’t let me log back in as it only recognised my old internet, every time I tried to change the Wi-Fi on the camera it would forget the settings and revert back no matter how many times I clicked save, I’d look for a different camera if I were you
@@lloydaom Sir, I thank you very much for this information you have given me I thank you once again for your response to my questions and I benefited greatly from your information Thank you very much😇
Looks great for outside wire free surveillance. Interested to know how well the solar panel works when recharging the battery, especially on cloudy days.
I shall more than likely do a little follow up review on this in a month or so, I'll make sure to include about battery life there, its early days yet but I have read good things about them.
A little update for you, I shall be sorting a follow up video in the near future and will include this, I didn't charge mine straight out of the box as it suggests to. Though lately I've noticed the battery is now fully charged so the solar panel is certainly doing its job!
I've had mine for about 8 months and it's always shown full battery except during a 3 day span of cloudy weather. Then it just went down one notch. It's really impressive.
Thanks for the valuable information. Do you know if this camera can be added to your home wifi network and then access the feed from any PC with its assigned IP address? I already have multiple cameras on my network and want to add this just like any other IP camera. If you can only view it while connected to its own internal wifi connection from the proprietary app that won't be as useful to me.
Thank you for the comment Shane! Unfortunately I'm not sure if I can answer the querie you have here. I'm reasonably sure you could, as the camera is connected to my WiFi and I can view it through my phone when at work but that is via the app on my 4g connection. I imagine if you knew what you were doing with ip addresses on different computers you could probably access it. To get a better answer it may be worth you contacting ctronics and asking directly, I'm really sorry I can't be of any help further with this.
Having just reread the original listing it appears I am wrong, it states it is only supported by the ctronics app and not by onvif/nvr, I hope this helps, Lloyd
Ok, so it is connected to your home network but just to give it a connection to the internet to access anywhere from the app. Looks like an awesome camera but probably not exactly what I am looking for. Thanks again!
@@shanesdiy yes that's right, I wasn't too sure at first but yes that's how the information reads atleast. But still your question was a good one as I am in the middle of making a follow up video to this for information that was not in the original video, so I thank you for raising this point.
I intend on doing an update video soon as well as several other videos on other products, please bear with me, it is on its way don't worry. As for the battery, I've not given it its first initial charge, the solar panel has charged the internal battery full and that's with our dull British weather.
I have the same cam..it won't connect at all to the wifi. You did it so simply, but mine just won't! I have Fibre broadband fast speed so can't see what's up? I contacted customer service via email, but i think it's faulty!!!
I can’t see why not, as you could always take the camera down and charge it, it does have a large battery inside to last approx 3 months, the solar panel only helps keep it topped up
@@lloydaom thank you for the quick response, I've been looking at the iegeek camera with the solar panel, but like that this one the panel sits on top (less work to install lol) think you have sold me to purchase this one, thank you 🙂
That is interesting you bring this up, as I have the app available on my phone but I can't seem to be able to find it in the app store either (also android) I have also been having trouble with the app lately, possibly it is being worked on?
I'm not 100% sure on that one, I'd try it myself but Ive actually been having some difficulties with the camera lately, connection and being able to view it on the app etc, it's actually holding me up doing a follow up video on it.
@@lloydaom Thank you, My girlfriend mainly wants a cheap night vision one for the garden for a bit hedgehog 🦔 spotting. Still debating which one would be best, be better if it connects straight to the tv.
@@Bearsio I'll be 100% honest with you, after using this one for the past 5 months I'd say look elsewhere, first impressions are great, first 2 months it was spot on then it just declined from there, if I can ever get back onto the app with it "working" I'll get the update video done and I'll be brutally honest about the camera but for now I'd say look a different brand, I'm not happy with this one, that's for sure!
@@lloydaom Hi Mate, I have just watched your video tutorial & I found it very interesting!. Thank you. You have now suggested to look elsewhere as you are not happy with it. I would have thought for the price of almost £120 it would have been quite a decent camera? It's also strange that it worked perfectly well!.. and then started to deteriorate ? Someone is selling one on Facebook for £65! advertised as new, maybe they have had the same problems.. What are your latest thoughts please? Leave it well alone and buy something else? Thanks again, John :)
Hi there, sorry I totally missed this comment, if you read the instruction guide with it you'll see there is a different password that you have to use. I had the same issue but when I reread the guide I figured it out. After that you are able to reset the password to something of your own choosing
You can choose to turn the sound on from the app, there shall be a follow up video to this camera soon explaining pros and cons I've come across since installing.

Can I review the recorded footage on the app?
Can you add additional users? I want my wife's to be able to see the camera on her phone also.
Yes you can, I have it on my phone and my partner has it on hers

how do i get the camera to send me human detention notice
How to contact you to help our security camera do a similar video if possible?
I no longer have this camera, it turned out to be very problematic
Thanks for this! Great video! Very helpful to see how it works before setting my cameras up.
Please do battery update also how is video footage stored isit continues record or motion only cheers

@@lloydaom thanks mate appreciate it
@@rajaakhan3876 no problem buddy!

Unfortunately mine went faulty in the end and would no longer connect to the internet
I have that camera, but if the solar panel is broken, can I replace it with a phone charger or something like that?
I can’t see why not, as you could always take the camera down and charge it, it does have a large battery inside to last approx 3 months, the solar panel only helps keep it topped up
Great review! Quick question, can you turn the blinking blue light at the front of the camera (is there a feature on the app that allows this)?
Thank you and I’ve not come across any way of turning this off or changing it in anyway
@@lloydaom thank you for the quick response, I've been looking at the iegeek camera with the solar panel, but like that this one the panel sits on top (less work to install lol) think you have sold me to purchase this one, thank you 🙂
pas de pièce pour installer le petit panneau solaire sur un mur au lieu de la tete de la camera
Can you view the cameras on multiple devices at the same time
Yes you can
Factual good footage. Sound fitting advice.
What does this sell for and can you buy 2 of them and link them to one phone Please comment Back thank you so very much
I think it was around £130 and I believe you can have up to 4 on one device
Hi do you how I can see the camera when you are out of the house?
You should be able to view your camera if you have set the app up with the camera on your phone
Do you have a link to the ctronics app please. I can't seem to find it in the app store for android.
That is interesting you bring this up, as I have the app available on my phone but I can't seem to be able to find it in the app store either (also android) I have also been having trouble with the app lately, possibly it is being worked on?
@@lloydaom I'm going to try the Camhi app at this stage.
@@OutandAboutwithAbinaandKoe I don't suppose you have a QR code to scan on your phone to find the app?
@@lloydaom I could download one. For now I'm going to try the other app.
Great tutorial, Thank you very much for sharing. It has been very helpful!. as well has the comments :)
Any idea if this will connect to smart tv using WiFi or just phones and tablets?
I'm not 100% sure on that one, I'd try it myself but Ive actually been having some difficulties with the camera lately, connection and being able to view it on the app etc, it's actually holding me up doing a follow up video on it.
@@lloydaom Thank you, My girlfriend mainly wants a cheap night vision one for the garden for a bit hedgehog 🦔 spotting. Still debating which one would be best, be better if it connects straight to the tv.

@@lloydaom Thanks for the advice, It’s probably worth spending a bit more and just getting a half decent set up installed.

Someone is selling one on Facebook for £65! advertised as new, maybe they have had the same problems..
What are your latest thoughts please? Leave it well alone and buy something else?
Thanks again, John :)
I bought the same camera but i cant make it connected to my phone, when ask me to add the password it says incorrect password, any advise?
Hi there, sorry I totally missed this comment, if you read the instruction guide with it you'll see there is a different password that you have to use. I had the same issue but when I reread the guide I figured it out. After that you are able to reset the password to something of your own choosing
Try typing in admin it’s a default I had same problem and that solved my problem
How far can you see with the nightvision ?
I believe around 30 meters
ICSee, how to empty the storage
You can clear the storage via the app or add remove memory cards under the rubber cover at the bottom of the camera
is the sound can be hear on live video? or the sound can be also recorded?
You can choose to turn the sound on from the app, there shall be a follow up video to this camera soon explaining pros and cons I've come across since installing.
Thank you for sharing your experience,👍
How much so?
😊Thank you for your video.
Ur audio is soft I have to strain to hear what ur saying
Did you not know that this camera has a light on aswell, press the bulb at the top
I have since worked it out and In between jobs am working on an update video to show more and give views on it
Hi where do you find the password?
Hi there, the password can be found in the instruction manual if I remember correctly
nice, thanks
Y are u whispering man
