I like this light and design. With two small flaws. It should be able to rotate 90 degrees. Would have definitely looked better in your friend’s installation. And I would want this in all white housing to match my house trim and all of the existing hardware on the outside of my house. If those two things were there, I would pull the trigger and grab two of these! I have two of the Geeni light bulbs in my current lights that do some of the same things these lights do. But not nearly as many. The app seems to be really well designed.
John did a pretty good job, but you can install it horizontally knowing that the camera might not align as to where you want it. So try it first to see, then go through the process of installing it vertically the way you’re instructed.

I got this Cam Light (3 of them) not knowing that I needed to have 2.4Ghz wifi. Unfortunately, I have 5Ghz and it won't connect. I thought, well, at least I'll have the Dusk til Dawn lighting since the internet is only for the camera activity---but they won't turn on at all. If I installed them myself I would question the wiring, however, I called in an electrician to do the installment. I'm very sad that I have to return these. Before I pack them up, do you have any suggestions on how else to troubleshoot the lighting portion?
I spent two frustrating days trying to connect this to my network. After figuring out that you have to set your network name and password to simple names, no special characters or spaces, it finally worked. After hookup the software updated and I installed it, however after changing my network name and password to a more secure one it dropped connection again. Then it wanted me to start all over gain in pairing mode. I have other Eufy products and have never had these kinds of problems.
@ManShed what is the time delay on recording from when it detects motion? Most cameras catch the action after its occurred. And how long can the clips he recorded for?
Honestly, this was such a straight forward example of why horizontal mounting should be an option, it would have done a much more effective job with the lighting angles.

Yea, the app is one of the best I’ve used for security cameras. I have their HomeBase 3 camera system.

Please tell "John" to turn the ENTIRE unit on it's side, in his garage.🙏
I will. Thank you for the advice
Thanks for the video. Can you install this horizontally? Is there a setting to view the camera horizontally by default?
You can install it horizontally, but the camera might not align where you want it. Shame they don’t make it with an adjustable lens.

Great video!
Thank you!
Coul be turn install horizontally instead of vertical?
I can not get it to scan QR code.
Do you use an android phone?
Could he had turned that 90 degrees?
No, it is not designed to rotate it 90°. There is no option to rotate the camera feed 90° in the app either.
That was my question as well. Bad design and needs to be re-implemented.
Thank you for your thorough review.
Definitely needs to be upgraded to work horizontally...

Mine would not connect to Wi-Fi cuz I use special characters for the password
I don't have an existing light outside. How do I wire it
Run some new romex
Why does everyone sound stupid when they say color night vision 🤦🏻♂️ when is not night vision it just regular vision with lights on 😂
