1080P Standalone Outdoor Battery Camera (CB3)

So far so good. Crystal clear images & prompt alerts sent to my phone. Only been using them for two weeks so far & had no issues at all. The cameras work well with the EZVIZ solar panels as well. I recommend these cameras & if anything changes, I will update my review.

Excellent product, fantastic picture quality and even in bad dull weather conditions the solar panel keeps the battery charged to full capacity. Speed of notifications and alerts is almost instant. I have bought four units.

I was looking for a camera to connect to my Hik. Connect set up. I need a camera that was wireless and didn’t require any kind of wiring due to where I was locating in both the porch and the rear of the garden. They said it was really straightforward and easy. I was able to use the eviz app to the hik connect app. The battery life on the camera is superb since purchase and fully charged. I’ve not had to charge it yet and it has now been five weeks. Build quality superb and feels really premium I managed to purchase the camera whilst it was on offer meaning greater value for money. If you have owned this brand before you know of the quality and ease of use and I would recommend this camera. I have since purchased further cameras from the same make further locations around the house where I cannot run wires.

It was a vary good camera and it was very good quality.Easy controls and was just too easy to set up.

Ok so I've taken my time in testing these cheap battery cameras and came across a few issues that may change your mind buying one. I'll start with the good stuff. The camera picture quality is really good, it has a nice wide angle lens. It records to the SD card (free) and cloud (subscription). It's advertises a 110 battery life with it's typical certain amount of uses per day. The pir is really good and has the odd flase hit. Infrared is also very good and excellent night vision picture or colour. Ok here's the bits will either make or break future purchases. The camera bracket is absolutely useless, you cannot angle the camera at a side angle, its poorly designed. It's a screwed plastic cover with a rubber insert to keep the bracket in place, if you tighten too much it just over tightens and slips and this doesn't give you a sturdy mount. In the app you cannot download off the SD card footage it's captured to your device, you have to play the video back and record the screen. You can only download and save to your device using the subscription service. These cameras are being mis-sold as the SD card function is totally useless as you cannot use on your own pc as the files are encrypted. Ok your thinking that's not an issue I'll take the SD card out and play it back on my computer, no you cannot do that either, the footage will not playback on a computer. The PC software is awful, it's simply terrible to work. Nothing works like they say it works, the LAN connected cameras don't work, I believe this is too stop you downloading the footage as everything is encrypted. You don't actually own the SD card footage either. Battery life, ok it's pretty good to be fair in normal circumstances. WIFI connection, now this will still record if you don't have a WiFi connection but and this is a big but, this will kill your battery in 1 day flat. I think this is a firmware issue that the camera is looking all the time for a WiFi connection when it don't have one and it's killing the battery. Solar panel, I do not have the original micro usb solar panel, but I do have a reolink micro usb solar panel, same connection but it will not charge the camera from this other source. I'm not sure if they have some kind of protection on the port to stop other solar panels working. I'm not sure if they plan to change any of the issues I've raised. The biggest one for me is the non WiFi draining the battery life. I did buy x3 of these and would NOT buy them again. It's pretty clear once you buy these cameras that they are subscription based only, but only after you do some research. I feel liked I've been conned.

Camera and solar panel has been in for 6 months. Working well, with the app sending notifications. Waiting to see how it fairs in the Scottish winter of darkness!

Good heavy weight product, easy to set up and link to wifi and app took 10 mins. Set up at front of my house and is picking up anyone coming up the path. Battery has dropped 5% in 12 days so should easily get 200+ Only downside is it's max range is 7.5m so missing some the drive, maybe missed this in the Description. But doing the job i purchased it for.

Great quality and design, the video quality is great too. The only issue I have is the notification aren’t great and requires a subscription for play back.
