    Thanks for the great video! Have you run it with and without the homebase? I’ve been reading some people say the camera seems to perform better without it. Thanks

    Thanks for taking the time to make the video. I have the S340 and Homebase 3. Things seem to be working fine except when there is motion, I am not getting a notification on my phone. I have notifications turned on for the app and in the settings . I'm obviously not doing something right, any suggestions. I have tested motion and when I walk into the field, the cameras light also comes on. Thanks.

    Does it overwrite the old video when the memory is running out like the way dash cam works, or stop recording when the memory is full?

    Nice video mate.
    I’d want to swap the solar panel out for a hardwire connection and have 24hr recording with expandable memory.
    Don’t think you can switch to the 24h even with the hard wire

      The only eufy camera that does 24/7 recording is the S330 Pro which I reviewed last year: ruclips.net/video/yxSQ_-ddJ7g/видео.html

      I don't recall 100% but I think it either turns solid blue or the light turns off. It should be in the manual.

    Without the home base, would the S340's "People" and "Vehicle" detections capture any wildlife ? We have bear and deer doing damage around the house.

    • @ThisSmartHouse
      @ThisSmartHouse  18 дней назад

      The camera only detects people and vehicles on board. But you can have it detect just motion, that should pick up animals but also moving trees.
      You have bears? Yikes!

      What type of LED strip is it? I would say with that length, you are going to need to inject power at least once in the middle (at 15 feet). Check out Rob @TheHookUp s awesome guides.

    . Many software options not available on my S340. I did not buy a "homebase" to get them. Returning my EUFY S340 after un-installing it will be a PAIN.

    Has Eufy fixed any of their previously egregious security issues? Have any white hat hacker types made sure they are not sending data (including facial recognition to China still) because they were. Seems insane to install this into your home, no matter how great the feature set.

  • @chaz_evans

    You dont actually want 5ghz for wireless cameras, even if it supports it. The reason being is that 5ghz wifi is a tigher band that sure can transmit faster, but the tighter wavelength struggles with distance and obstructions (walls etc). 2.4ghz is the better option for this use case useless you have outdoor access points littering your yard.

    • @ThisSmartHouse
      @ThisSmartHouse  2 месяца назад

      You are correct that the 5 GHz band does have more issues with walls and penetration. But the other side of the coin is that the 5 GHz spectrum is much more open so you can find a clear channel. 2.4 in my neighborhood is so congested it's difficult to get anything to connect over a decent range.

    This camera sucks 2 days ago there was police activity with three or four police cars parked right in front of my house and the camera did not even detect that they were there. It showed me a 5-second clip when they drove off

    • @ThisSmartHouse
      @ThisSmartHouse  2 месяца назад +1

      That's one of the core disadvantages of the battery-powered cameras. They will only wake up when motion is detected and then it's up to the onboard AI to determine whether or not to continue recording.

    Like all Eufy battery powered camera, it will die in a couple of year. Since the battery cannot be removed, it is basically a throw away.

    lol, not the best because it does not even track pets , just detects them. When I uncheck pets detection, it detected my pet as human but did not track it. I ask eufy if they will update the software to track pets, they said no! Buyers just be aware these influencers don’t mention that.

    • @ThisSmartHouse
      @ThisSmartHouse  2 месяца назад +3

      You mean the AI tracking to move the camera? I think it is designed only to track people. But it will record if an animal walks through the frame (can confirm as I saw the neighbor's cat during testing). Only if you have the HomeBase 3.
      It isn't that we don't mention it, it just isn't a feature that I would need. But I will keep it in mind in future reviews.

    • @fluffyguppy8272
      @fluffyguppy8272 2 месяца назад +3

      Thanks though I don’t see that being a feature most would need or even want. I want it to follow people so I have peace of mind, animals can go about their business and I don’t need to know their every move
