I am actually thinking of buying these two (Tapo C210 and C420S2) together, nice to have both on the same video. Great review! Value for money again from TP-Link.
ps. Bought the C210 first today. :D
Nice!
Great stuff!
Thank you!
I wanna ditch my drop cams/nest as im just getting absolutely frustrated with google. Thinking of getting these. Do you know if they work with smartthings and can it viewed on Windows desktop?
If I add solar panels to this outdoor camera, can I turn on video recording?
Not a bad camera. I have been using them(the outdoor cam(s)) for a while now. My gripe is that they do not sell spare batteries. But the price is so low that it may be worth it to buy 2 pairs of out door cameras and use 2 or 3 cams to have at least 1 consistently charged battery. The speaker on the hub is much better than the speaker on the cameras as far as alarm goes. Motion detection is super sensitive, but adjustable. But if you adjust it too low you lose some AI person detection (cars become detected as person...). Overall, good buy.

As an aside, keep fighting the good fight. Best wishes and hopes and vibes to you and your family. The cancer hits home for me as that is what my father had. Always live as if your story is still being written.
Take Care
Thank you 🙏🏻
I live in MI winters get cold here, below zeeo. Id liike something wireless, no subscription, low lag/delay between when sensor picks up the objects and starts to record and sends notification, long battery life, no false alerts/detectioms when leaves blow in the wind etc. I've had Blink outdoor camera's and they were junk on every level. Will these cameras live up to my goals?
@shanew7361 Nope, they sure won’t. You’re going to need a wired NVR system to live up to those standards. WiFi isn’t going to cut it.
@SilverHammerSurveillance Damn what I figured. I don't want a wired system lol suggestion on wireless that will get as close to this?
What bothers me a lot is if any key features are subscription only. Does this require any of that?
Could you maybe do a video on how you set up, mount, install, and run your indoor homekit cameras? I always find you have them set up really nicely and i'm interested to see how exactly you make it all work. This has been a burning question in my head for a while now. I really like how you have your indoor cameras.
I’ll put that idea in my video que. thanks for the suggestion!
We subscribed after watching this video
I appreciate it. Thanks for the sub & thanks for watching!
Have had the outdoor for several months and no issues in Indianapolis weather. One is in direct sunlight so it gets pretty hot. I am waiting for extra batteries to be available so I can cut down on down time. Otherwise, for the money, they are great!
Nice!

Great video! I watched your video because I want to get one of these Tapo cameras but I'm struggling to find how the Tapo App installed on a mobile/cellphone is used to view the camera live remotely. I know the camera has to be connected to a local WiFi network and the Tapo App connected to the same WiFi network will work -- but, what if you're at work say 50 miles away and want to monitor one, two or more Tapo cameras? Your phone will use it's mobile data. How does the App then connect to the cameras?
If you have these cameras connected to your home WiFi, your phone does not have to be on that same WiFi. You would be able to see these cameras from anywhere in the world as long as your phone has a cellular connection or WiFi connection (doesn’t have to be local).
@@GeorgeLangabeer Thanks for your reply. That's just what I wanted to hear. Based on your answer to my question, I'm going to buy 4 Tapo C225 cameras. And thanks again for your video. I know how much time and effort is needed to make a great instructional video. 👍
Love it~beautiful sharing. see you soon- 🤓
Thank you!
Is it a power plugin camera? Will it work while connected to the charging cable? I would like to connect it most of the time to usb charging and use battery when there is a power outage or someone will cut the power. The question is , does it work and how does that power cut impact operations ? Thanks!!
For these cameras that are designed as battery-only cameras, they can be plugged in, but it’s never ideal because of the design. The plugin option is never very weatherproof. So if you want one you can plugin, I’d pick a camera that was designed for that purpose.
i want a camera for inside my garage.... i have a cctv systhem already , but run cms (software) will it work in cms????
Unfortunately, it will not.
can the C210 be setup to use RTSP or ONVIF? I don't want to use the Tapo app. Instead I would like to use something like TinyCam monitor.
Here is Tapo’s link as to using RTSP:
www.tp-link.com/us/support/faq/2680/
Is the outdoor camera able to continously record to sd card or cloud , or is it only going to start recording based on motion detection ?
I need to record a problem area about 50 yards away ...a local; problem nuisance area at a nearby intersection. Too far away for short distance motion detection. I need battery and maybe solar power., completely wireless so it can be out by the street and always recording.
You’re not going to find a wireless option that gets that distance. You’d need a good camera that’s part of a wired NVR system.
@@GeorgeLangabeer Thanks , and best wishes to you. Very inspirational !
Hi1 What's the C200 view angle when not rotating?
75 Degrees
Does these cameras without a subscription send notification to your cell phone regardless can you watch live non-stop?
You can get basic notifications without the cloud. But with the cloud you add their “rich notifications” feature.
You can watch the live view as long as you need to, but I’d make sure you’re on WiFi if you do.
Does the indoor pan/tilt have geofencing? Thanks
No, unfortunately Tapo doesn’t do geofencing.
We need cameras outside and inside. Something that records that can’t be erased. Can we view in real time from our phone?
Yes you can.
IP65 is the outdoor camera
Can you get the video feed on a separate tv, or cell phone only
Phone & Tablet.
@@GeorgeLangabeer thank you for taking the time to answer me.
@user-ui2vw2fl2b You’re welcome & thanks for watching!
Wish you were in New Zealand as I'd pay you cash to install a full wired security system here. Dang.
I hear New Zealand is beautiful. I’d love to visit. A little far for a road trip though.
I installed C420S2 some months ago...
Good image quality? Yes, but that's all
The battery only lasts about twenty days, even with the lowest settings.
Impossible to buy a spare battery
Not secure: we cut the power and the hub is out of order and no more monitoring
A simple rotation of the camera is enough to steal it
Sound alarm ? LOL You need an amplifier to hear it
The sound ? very low
2K? great, but the battery drains
Very expensive for what it is... And I got fooled
My Tapo Wi-Fi cameras got hacked shame they were good cameras I was using wpa2 2FA 2.4 Wi-Fi using the cloud service not using sd cards
Defined hacked…what happened?
@@GeorgeLangabeer Hi my Tapo C225 was hacked someone was talking to me through my camera plus my Tapo cloud account my email plus password was changed so I sent my cameras back for a refund the cameras are good but the security is a bit iffy so to say.
Home Kit approved ?
Unfortunately not.
Try putting it in the freezer to test the -4? LOL
Lol.
I wonder if they are using special batteries for that temperature range
I'm not a fan of TP-Link in particular especially about Wireless Routers since they are not so endowed like Asus Routers. And, concerning privacy I trust more about Asus products than TP-Link ones. Pity that Asus don't built much cameras!😉
I’m the opposite & not a fan of Asus.
@@GeorgeLangabeer Yeah, but TP-Link has too much to do with the Chinese communist entities, which raises serious concerns about privacy, whereas Asus is exactly the opposite... you know what I mean. There are plenty of differences of the Asus settings and endowments compared with TP-Link's.😉
Not a asus fan here either. All tp link now. Everthing works fine.
