YES!! Finally, someone who agrees wired cameras are way better than wireless. All these new wireless camera/security systems irritate me. I want POE cams, because no interference from weird things like walls being in the way. "But wires can be cut!" people say. If you route your wires properly, it'll be a real PITA to do it.
YES! For real security applications I think wires are the only way to go. Battery Cams are of course not in the game at all since you don't want to risk a depleted battery for your security cam. That means you'll need a power cable to the wireless camera none the less and that cable is just as cuttable as a PoE Ethernet cable. I have about 50m (164 ft) to my front gate (I'm Swedish so metric system for me, but I Googled the distance in feet for Ya😊), so I will have my cable in the ground and then routed inside the steel pole I mount the camera on so it will be reasonably safe. I don't know if IR cameras have the possibility to turn on the camera but without IR LEDs? I would prefer separate IR lights to lure insects away from the lens. Anyway long rant, but I'll end her with: great video, I'm a subscriber for sure. One of the best and most thorough channels on the subject 👍

@@bennylloyd-willner9667 I'd assume turning off the nightvision would be a thing (to stop the IR lights from turning on), and then having a separate IR light would illuminate for it. IDK how WELL that illumination would work, though, since it may not be in the lens' direct sight line. I'd also think that if you could turn off nightvision, it wouldn't also turn the camera off. You might have an application where you don't need NV, so being able to turn off just the IR should be a thing. Appreciate the inclusion of freedom units, also!
Thanks, you answered my question. Here in the cold north (-8 below zero F), battery security camera last about 4 days or so and they're dead. The battery dies and they're worthless (at least the brand we tried). I'm glad they make cameras that don't have batteries and yet work WiFi wireless. External power source cameras are perfect for us. Thanks! P.S. And they're a lot cheaper too.
I've just replaced a Reolink PTZ camera which I have always had trouble using with Alexa for the Tapo C325wb, The nighttime footage is amazing. It's at the front of the house where there are street lamps which make it look like daytime in full colour .....And just ordered another one taking advantage of Black Friday deals with £30 off .....
My favourite camera (so far) is my Reolink CX410. I'd love to see a PTZ version (possibly with higher resolution) of this camera. The other version of the starlight camera I'd like is a Doorbell camera with a wider vertical view (up and down view) so that it can see packages, either that or a movable eyeball lens that gives greater flexibility of angles. Currently this is only available with various wedges or brackets which can be cumbersome and look ugly.
Me too! I like the CX410 out of the Reolink cameras hat I have and I am even planning to add some more in my setup and replace my 4K ones. We will see.
I have the RLC-1224A its pretty awesome in low light. much better than cx410 which has iso noise. I Bought both to evaluate the RLC-1224A is better it seems. I heard the 1224A reviewed on this channel has been superceeded. so its not an updated review
Love the video. What happens to a wired camera in a blackout or power cut situation? And would that give battery or solar powered cameras an advantage?
You can put a UPS/battery backup on your surveillance system but if you don't then your cameras will not record anything during a power outage. Wireless cameras are hit or miss, some may not record when your wi-fi connection goes down and they certainly won't be able to notify your phone of an event when the wi-fi is down.
Battery powered cameras are fine. HW cameras can be cut and they have flaws too. One type isn’t better than the other, they both have their uses. Also, get an alarm for backup if something DOES happen to the cameras.
You can always add a backup UPS on your wired system and battery cams will only have an advantage if their storage is in the camera itself... but if your router is not on backup or your internet is also cut off, then you will not get notifications either wired or battery.
Thank you for the enlightening video that clarified the distinction between power supply and camera connectivity to the network. A wired setup with PoE offers enhanced security. Now armed with this detailed information, my next step is to choose a suitable brand. I use wireless system, but I'm leaning towards a fully wired setup with a battery backup for my router to ensure functionality during power outages.
I like the Kiss method. Im looking to put a wired camera on the bow of a sailboat. Head sail blocks view at times. Could you recomend a set up . Thank you
LifeHakster! I watch a lot of your videos and I was wondering if you could give me some advice on which brand is better. Lenox or Reolink. I’m looking to put 4 security cameras around my property. I would like day/night vision, cat 5 wired for power and viewing. I also want the ability to check video feed remotely. Pan and tilt options are definitely nice, but great video quality is a must. Auto tracking is also another good option to have but not completely necessary. Please let me know what you would suggest. There are so many options out there it gets overwhelming. I thank you in advance.
Hi there! Are you able to suggest an outdoor camera that's hardwired/plug in, that has an app that multi users can connect to? We live in a 6 unit condo building in Chicago. Feeling a little overwhelmed trying to narrow it down. Thanks so much!
Always loved your videos, I’m going to see if you have a detailed hardwired Eufy System for the E330, I do like the notification feature but I don’t want to use that big plug.
Should also recommend wifi mesh systems. Get a good modem and a good mesh wifi system. With some high download AND upload speeds. Wifi cameras definitely need a good network.
I agree your camera's are only as good as your network and yes wired cams are better but sometimes that's not an option. I have a lot of wyze and ring cameras and I lost Internet one time over 3 years. Pros and cons to everything wired or wireless. Right now I have a little piece of mind and I'm good with that.
Is there any way to determine the wifi range on any of these cameras? Any built-in antennas? My router is 30ft from my front door where I want the camera
What would be the best camera to mount outside and plug into an outdoor 120 volt plug and also be able to remotely access footage and get alerts? i would just want 1 camera.
I currently have a Lorex setup for a few years now which I like, except for the constant false signals that I get like leaves falling or bugs flying by the cameras. I would like to get the newer AI cameras with person detection and vehicle detection and was deciding between the Lorex Fusion or the Reolink cameras, just need 4 cameras and 4K. I know you tested both, which one is the better based on your testing?
Hi LH, thank you for your very informative videos. For me unfortunately, fully wired cameras like reolink aren’t an option due to the house I’m in. I have some ring hardwired WiFi floodlight cams and want to add a few more cameras but Ring doesn’t seem to be upgrading their cameras at all. Would you have any other suggestions? I love the idea of having all cameras in one app but that may not be realistic at this point. Any suggestions would be welcomed! Thanks!
Hey LifeHackster, Hope you are well. Can you help? Do you know which wired indoor cameras have continuous recording once motion detection has been triggered. My Blink cameras have time limited recording once motion detection is triggered. Thus when the red and blue go off it indicates to anyone that they can do something wrong without being recorded
Do I need the splitter? Can I just plug a ethernet to usb (and then to usb wall plug) on one end and an ethernet to female usb to the other (and plug in usb camera to it) to power the ethernet cable? Would this work?
I'm not fully sure I understand what you want, but it sounds to me it wouldn't be a simpler solution. If the signal is transferred via USB you need to either have a pretty short distance or repeaters. Disclaimer: I may well be getting your description totally wrong. I'm Swedish😊
What would be the best set up for a closed circuit (non internet facing) security camera system, with night vision capably? (Budget under 1200$, preferably under 900)
The issue I have is that I would LOVE a wired setup (I had an older one that I only ever installed 2 cams) but have at least 10 wyze cams I bought and haven't setup yet with even two flood lights. I like them but would LOVE an NVR type option. I find I have to either hack a home assistant setup or am having issues with tinycam not seeing my cameras.
LH can you do a video to explain using a poe splitter to get two Poe cameras working from a single cable run? Seems a great idea for a DIYer if it’s possible and it doesn’t impact any smart features like AI detection.
PoE injector is just one port, the PoE switch just like in the video has many ports and can replace you network switch. PoE splitter splits the output of the PoE switch/injector to data and power.

I have a wired system and no matter what brand I use (using Lorex now), the cameras all wont work at the same time. Its either 2 here or 2 there, they never all stay on at the same time. Not sure what im doing but theyre all POE and its like that no matter what brand I use, they just wont work at the same time...what am I doing wrong?
I agree with "the hardware guys", probably cables/switch or even some weird Ethernet problem (which often has h/w causes anyway 😊) If one has gone to the trouble of wiring it all, I don't think WiFi is wanted. Definitely not battery operated since that would severely lower the 24/7 security consistency. For me, the only "true" security cam is a PoE with properly hidden/protected wiring.
Musta kuya, my budget is low. I feel that I need a wired (for hacking defense) poe cat6 non subscription system i have old foxcon 18 port 1000Mbs switches, and ups battery backup systems. I would like ai tracking clear night vision dvr sys. I live in the country and losts of meth head thieves. Cat 7 is for future upgrades. Wdyt? Recommend tools camera systems boxes conduits flood light cameras what do you think is more secure wired or cellphone chips for 10 acres perimeter, but .5 Acres around house and out buildings.
Wired cameras can record 24/7 and this is why I got a wired Tapo one. Pleased with its cost, app and performance. The worse thing for all of them is the supplied power cable and plug is far too short. Like all tech stuff nothing is perfect.
We lose internet service a few times a year and last storm knocked out power for a week as well as cell towers and internet. My cameras were useless. I plan on a wired system
Poe is the best for long term unless you have no choice to have a wifi camera set up...but if i had to do this security thing all over again i would go with reolink system with A.I And night vision and NVR for a security's solution . Ring is a hard pass as this company is failing to keep up with 2k and 4k cameras.. Wyze is good for price.. swann is also good set up on POE. still my fav camera is Reolink trackmix...
Really clear overall explanation of the various types of wired and wireless camera options

Wired cameras can record 24/7 and this is why I got a wired Tapo one. Pleased with its cost, app and performance. The worse thing for all of them is the supplied power cable and plug is far too short. Like all tech stuff nothing is perfect.
We lose internet service a few times a year and last storm knocked out power for a week as well as cell towers and internet. My cameras were useless. I plan on a wired system
From saudi 👍
Poe is the best for long term unless you have no choice to have a wifi camera set up...but if i had to do this security thing all over again i would go with reolink system with A.I And night vision and NVR for a security's solution . Ring is a hard pass as this company is failing to keep up with 2k and 4k cameras.. Wyze is good for price.. swann is also good set up on POE. still my fav camera is Reolink trackmix...
@Rockaland2...Thanks for watching!
Wi fi no good if the internet goes down, wired is the way to go.
The self-contained system (4:24) is for us. We can add WiFi to it - and when it goes down - we'll still be huddled at the monitor in the bunker.
Bro’s gonna probably protect his whole property with all of these cameras or something.

@zuhairhlayel...Thanks for watching!
You have so many security cameras
You can never have too many cameras
Security cameras in this day and age should be very important.
Why not? I have 10 and still thinking about getting a couple more.
:)
He has them surveilling each other for even better security 😊
WI-FI IS NO GOOD IT CAN GET JAMMED ! Believe I know
Anything wifi can be hacked easy
Doe alles in een doos en stuur na mij toe al die camera s whahaha
It would be bad, if your internet goes down.
Apps on wired cameras are rubbish
