Wyze Video Doorbell v2 - Why You Need It!
In today's video, we share the latest doorbell from Wyze, the Wyze Video Doorbell v2. This is the latest edition in their doorbell line, building off their history of providing budget conscious doorbells that are jam packed with a suite of security features one normally only associates with doorbells at twice the price. With a slightly larger form-factor than the V1, (similar to leaders in this space like Eufy, blink, Ring, etc.) With a 2K camera, faster response times, and a Micro SD card slot on the side. Setup is easier than previous models and there is an optional Voice Warning to scare off Porch Pirates. The most notable feature of this doorbell is the ability to mute the your existi...

    How to install it outside??

    • @SmarthomeRiggs
      @SmarthomeRiggs 9 часов назад

      Depending on the distance you have from the camera mount location to the power source, there are 2 things that we can suggest. The first is the outdoor rated power adapter for $19 (www.wyze.com/products/wyze-outdoor-power-adapter) from Wyze. I also like the added distance of the 20 ft. USB extender cable for $7.99 (www.wyze.com/products/wyze-cam-usb-extension-cable-20ft) between these 2 accessories you should have more flexibility to decide where the best place to mount your Wyze V4 camera is. I hope this helps, thank you for supporting the channel.

    I agree they should have put a Gig network port on the back but it does not bother me as much as it does so many people. To stream 4k with Dolby Atmos you only need around 25 Mbps and since you can't stream more than one movie at a time what they provided is sufficient. Where the new one does excel though is it offers losless TrueHD which if you are streaming from a Plex Server would require higher bandwidth but still within the 100 MBps range. If you find you need more you can opt for a USB to Gig Ethernet adapter and get north of 400 Mbps or opt to use the WiFI 6e band, but I agree it would have been nice to go with 1 Gig ethernet but it is not as big of a quality deal breaker as most think.

      If your thermostat is dedicated to air conditioning only, it will have a red Rc wire. For heating and cooling systems, it will have a red Rc and a red Rh wire. Though both wires are red, they are not interchangeable. When you tell the app what colors you have and where they are connected in your original thermostat it will tell you where on the new unit to connect it. I hope this helps answer your question.

      These specific light bars can be powered by a USB-C port on a computer but there is no app to our knowledge (at this time) that can control the lights other than the camera itself. There are other setups that can allow the lights to be controlled based on the HDMI signal of your PC (or firestick, PlayStation, Xbox, etc.) Like this one amzn.to/3VNbg6w , but the Govee G1 Pro is less expensive because it is designed to use the camera (which has the controller integrated.)

But I don’t know how much I’ll need details on clouds or trees in security footage. lol. I’d rather be able to make out the cars and people. But the v4 does pull up faster than the v3, and it has WiFi 6, so those are trade offs to consider. I won’t be replacing my v3 cameras, but I will use these to replace older v2 cameras I am still using. Because the night vision is so much better on the v3/v4 versions.

    • @SmarthomeRiggs
      @SmarthomeRiggs 10 месяцев назад

      Years ago, they actually used to recognize levels below 100,000 subs. Graphite at 100 subs, Opel for 1,000 subs, and Bronze for 10,000 subs. But with so many channels now, they don’t recognize anything less than 100,000 subs, which is and all Silver play buttons or Gold ones for more than 10,000,000 subs. We’re a small channel, and nowhere near that level yet, despite the hard work we put into our channel. But, I wanted to recognize the hard work and achievement of hitting 1,000 subs for my son Tommy, (it was his idea to start the channel when he was only 6) and my twin brother Rennie, (who’s helped me make Tommy’s dream a reality). Achieving 1,000 subscribers allowed us to officially join the RUclips Partner program, (which means after 3 year, we’re an “actual channel” and not just a hobby). 🙂 Lol. That’s why I reached out to guy and had the Opel buttons made, (and not Silver or Gold which would be wrong). The Opel button is meant to honor the RUclips level we’ve actually hit (and RUclips used to recognize) and also remind us, that we’ve come a long way since we started three years ago. We’re not trying to pretend we’ve done anything we didn’t, but I also did want to celebrate the achievement of having over 1,000 RUclips viewers actually subscribe to our channel. We’re blessed and thankful for every one of them. Thanks for your comment and allowing me the opportunity to explain what that Opel play button is all about. If you want to get one when you hit 1,000 subs, I’ll gladly shoot you a link. The guy on eBay that made them, did a great job helping us celebrate our milestone of hitting 1,000 subs and I think it looks amazing. Hopefully one day, we’ll achieve a Silver one. 😁👍

    • @SmarthomeRiggs
      @SmarthomeRiggs 10 месяцев назад

      In the comparisons I noticed that the v3 seemed to have better color saturation at night, but there was more detail in the far field, (trees) and the shine of the car paint. So, it really depends on what it is you are looking for. But the Auto Zoom feature, that uses ai to zoom into motion it thinks you would be interested is a great feature I’ve only seen in the O.G. Camera, and it pulls up faster in the app, than the v3. So, you need to weigh which of these features are the best fit for your needs. Both are solid options.

      Fair question and thanks for dropping a comment to ask it. We didn’t compare the WyzeCam v4 with the v3 Pro, O.G., Outdoor, or Pan cams. We only compared the WyzeCam v2/v3/v4 because the price-points (between $30-35) for these cameras were similar at time of launch, (and the v3 Pro is $60, or almost twice that price, (currently $45 on sale at the time of this post)). The Pro has a 2.5k resolution so the picture quality may be the same, however the WyzeCam v3 Pro sends the image and feed directly from the camera to the phone, (where the WyzeCam uses the cloud first). But we may make a follow-up video to compare the v4 with the v3 Pro, because that might be an interesting comparison indeed. Thanks for the suggestion, and thanks for supporting the channel.

I would mention that at times when the direct sunlight is in the field of vision there will be a solar flare in the footage that appears as a white spot, but it is only at times that the sun is directly pointing at the lens and this is the same for other cameras as well. I hope this answers your question and thank you for supporting the channel.

    How about a video showing.... One wyze cam operating on a Windows 11 PC. (SEPARATE MONITOR) One wyze cam operating on fire stick... on (separate monitor) With same wifi , same wifi router + service. Reason is, wyze cam cannot operate on two separate monitors.

    • @SmarthomeRiggs
      @SmarthomeRiggs 10 месяцев назад

      We didn't use my Windows 11 to view the Wyze cams because that requires a paid service and the point of this video is to show how to monitor without a paid service, but we will look into the Windows 11 option and reply back with the results. As for seeing the camera on 2 monitors, We've setup TinyCam Pro on 2 different firesticks running on 2 different TVs at the same time for a friend of ours and they both run 24/7. You can also run the Wyze app on an old phone connected to WiFi and have a live monitor there as well. Not sure what your specific question is, but thanks for the comment and thank you for supporting the channel.

      The simplest solution would be to get a camera compatible with your device. Or in this case a device compatible with your camera. A FireTV (Or Insignia TV with FireTV built in) Would connect and view your camera through the Alexa interface by adding the DZEES skill and using the alexa buton to call up the individual camera. As for the TinyCamPro used in this video, I just checked and DZEES cameras are not listed as supported . There are tons of cameras that are compatible, (even an option for "ip camera for android" that can be configured to connect by ip, username, password, etc.) that may work, but no guarantee. The cameras I used in the video are made by Wyze (available on Amazon, wyze.com, and Home Depot.) The "Roku" branded cameras are the same hardware as some of the Wyze cameras I use, but almost everything else is different and proprietary like the access, app, firmware, etc.) To my knowledge, The Roku cameras are only accessible from the Roku app on a phone or the smart home app on the Roku TV. I hope this answers your question and thanks for supporting the channel.

      If your Insignia TV has FireTV then any camera that can be added to Alexa is able to be pulled up on the TV ( like the Wyze outdoor cams, etc. To bring the camera up just press the blue Alexa button and asking for that specific camera (example: "Bring up the Backyard camera." ) this should bring up the backyard camera until you press the back button.

      I wish this was something we could offer, lol. I've found an easier way to setup the cameras in TinyCam Pro. When adding a camera, name it whatever, after choosing Wyze and Wyze cam (or pan depending on model) sign in with your Wyze login username and password and just below select the Camera UID and you should now see a list of all of your cameras by name. Select the camera you want to choose and it should automagically rename it correctly. You can copy that camera and let it name it whatever and the channel as well, then edit that camera and go straight to the Camera UID and select the next camera. Please let us know if this was able to get you up and running. I hope this helps and thank you again for supporting the channel.

    I had one that wouldn’t connect following an update. I JUST finally got it fixed but also experienced the same issues with manually flashing as others including the inability to achieve the solid purple light. I found a recommendation in the posted procedure to use a 32GB micro SD and formatting to FAT32 before putting the latest flash file on it. THIS did the trick and I was finally able to obtain the elusive purple light and my camera that has been shelved for so long is back up and running. I hope this helps.

      Make sure you have removed the plastic covering the V3 camera and I find it easiest to start with the QR code further away from the camera (1.5-2 feet) and slowly move towards the camera. You can also start out with the QR code right up against the camera and slowly pull back, I have has 2 camera that didn't seem to work, but after power cycling them a few times I tried again and they worked just like they were supposed to.

    • @SmarthomeRiggs
      @SmarthomeRiggs Год назад

      I too have had many Lifx bulbs with hit or miss experiences however, The Beam has been rock solid, the issue seems to be with the app losing connectivity sometimes, but with each update this seems to be a little better. That said, if I was going to recommend this kind of light, unless you are a specific Apple Home user, I would recommend the Govee's version (Govee Glide Wall Light) as it is more reliable, bends left or right orientation and they also make a larger version. Govee's larger version (Govee Glide RGBIC 3D Wall Light) with shipping is priced about the same as this LifX Beam by itself. I hope this helps you decide which is best for you.

      I've had mine for over 3 years. Still love them! Recently bought another set, split the bars 3 and 3 and added to the ones already installed. Other than occasional wifi issues, mostly on my end, I've had no issues. I happily stand by my decision and definitely recommend. May need some tweaking at first but smooth sailing moving forward.

    • @SmarthomeRiggs

      The power port on the V3 Pro is a micro USB but the power plug puts out more power than the regular V3 so when I swapped them I changed the camera and the power adapter, but left the 30 foot micro USB that was run in place. The Outdoor Power Adapter from Wyze will also run this camera. I hope this helps and thank you for supporting the channel.

    Hello! I have an older fire stick model so the app isn’t available on it like you said. Do you have any other suggestions (besides upgrading the fire stick) in order to view my Wyze cams with it?

    • @SmarthomeRiggs
      @SmarthomeRiggs Год назад

      Unfortunately, the security required to view the updated firmware running on Wyze cameras, requires the newest version of TinyCam Pro, and that requires the updated FireOS on the newer sticks (any current gen fire stick with a blue Alexa button, or I have it running on fire TV 4K, and 4K max from the previous generation.) On older sticks the only option to view a Wyze camera is to press the Alexa (mic) button at the top and call that camera by name and bring the cameras up one at a time. I hope this helps you get the most out of your current equipment. Thanks for supporting the channel.

    • @SmarthomeRiggs
      @SmarthomeRiggs Год назад

      I would say any of the new generation sticks should work, but I'd say the latest gen 4k Max is my 1st choice, then the current 4K model. As long as it is running Fire OS 6, it should run the latest version of TinyCam Pro. I have a Fire TV Stick (2nd gen) but it only runs Fire OS 5.2.9.5 and it will install the current version of TinyCam Pro but it will not allow connection to my Wyze cams due to the new login process which is only supported in android software versions higher than 5.

    • @SmarthomeRiggs
      @SmarthomeRiggs Год назад

      Well you can pair the Firestick and the Show 8 together as described in this video, but that will make video requests made on the Show display on the TV instead of the screen on the show. I like to go on the firestick to the settings > Controllers & Bluetooth Devices > Other Bluetooth Devices then tell the Show to "Pair with my device" This will place the show in pairing mode and it will tell you what name to look for on the firestick to connect to it. Then you can change the audio from the tv across the room to the Show close to you so you can get full sound even at lower volumes since the show is likely closer to you. If you have the Alexa Voice Remote Pro, there is a "headphone" button in the upper right of the remote. If you press it you can connect and disconnect from your connected Bluetooth devices. On mine, I can choose between Headphones, Show 8, Show 10, and Echo Studio (each device is in a different part of the room) I hope this helps you come up with a configuration that works best for you.

    • @SmarthomeRiggs
      @SmarthomeRiggs Год назад

      The lamp socket has a proprietary cable that is wired differently than the regular V3 power cable this was the cause of the bricking in the video. The Lamp Socket Will ONLY work with the regular Wyze V3. The reason is, the V3 software interface was designed to work with the LED light attachment they offer and the lamp socket leverages this interface. It sounds like you have the V3 Pan, that is a different camera and interface all together. I hope this helps and thanks for supporting the channel.
