49yrs old but i've had my fair share of medical problems. Lovin' Kasey Tross for her research on medical alerts. Was looking at getting Life Alert but OMG, they're insanely expensive w/ their product prices, monthly monitoring and activation fees. No wonder why they don't publicly advertise prices. You'll need that Life Alert on your first bill and every month after that. New sub. TYVM Kasey.
Very good information. However, I was hoping to see some nighttime vision examples. Because that’s the main reason why I’m looking to purchase this item…
The nighttime vision is pretty comparable to pretty much every night vision security cam like shown in the video, although just note at a good distance, probably 30-40 feet if someone walks into the darkness they will disappear like a ghost, at 30 feet if someone’s walking across the cam there will be a shuddering effect of the person.
Bought this one because the older version ruclips.net/user/postUgkx0jZ_lGlDVJhDnmagEU8gn47cmfPNlLQ had was really choppy and would disconnect from the wifi ALOT, was not catching everything and every week j had to charge it. So far the picture quality on this one is exceptional. I also bought a solar panel with it so I will see how this all turns out.
That's a great question. We hadn't thought about that. I did a little digging and found a few resources. Looks like it is doable smarthomestarter.com/how-to-replace-a-ring-spotlight-bulb/
Theres solar version too. Unfortunately recordings are only motion activated and the length of recording doesnt always catch all the activity. There are gaps btwn recordings, possibly missing crucial activity
Short answer, no. Long answer, also no. Without a Wi-Fi connection your camera won't be able to send video footage to the cloud for storage or your app for you to view.
Am I the only one wondering how long the battery last in average ? How and how long to charge the battery ? Also is it ok to use it without the pay per month subscription ? " To get the best features you still need to pay the monthly subscription" - It would be so much better if the "best features" and free features are listed in the video.
Hey @oscarchong we can help with that. Sorry if we didn't cover everything in the video. The battery lasts around six weeks. And you don't have to get a Ring subscription to use it. But those "best features" include things like video recording. So without that subscription, you can't look back on past videos, the camera won't give you smart alerts with clips (like a person passing by your house for example). TL;DR, without the subscription, all you can do is view live feed.
Would be helpful to understand the Battery life and charging time etc, since this is the battery version.
That's what i thought, didn't even say how long the battery in average will last, how and how long to charge it .... etc

Very good video. I was wondering How do you charge the batteries & how often?

If I remember right, we have some in our Ring Stick Up Cam video. Different camera, but similar features

Can you advise how long do the batteries stay charged?
Great review. How long does the battery last? And can you put 2 batteries in it? Sometimes I go away on RV trips for 2 months..
Exactly the info I was looking for, thanks for the video

if the wifi turns off will the camera not record anything that is being shown until the wifi comes back on?
Do the lights ever burn out? Do you need to replace the lights…? If so, how do you replace the lights…?
That's a great question. We hadn't thought about that. I did a little digging and found a few resources. Looks like it is doable

Thanks 4 the info ma'am. We have Ring doorbell for a year now and it isnt bad. Gonna get the spot light next. Thanks for your review!
Thankyou for the informative video 👍

This video help alot!! Thanks for sharing!
Is it weather proof?
Sure is!
Hey ummm excuse me does the ring spotlight camera with the wifi would it work still if the wifi was to be turned off?
Short answer, no.
Long answer, also no. Without a Wi-Fi connection your camera won't be able to send video footage to the cloud for storage or your app for you to view.
I have eufy and super happy with it. I can't justify paying $4 for ring and it's only 1080p 😞
How much you pay for eufy?
Darn...what I really wanted to know is... what is the battery life?
It is terrible, it lasts me only 9 days and I turned off most of the features. I will down grade to the plus
How do I turn on color night vision?
To bad the neighborhood ring portion is 90% lost pets
Omg! So glad someone else noticed that. It's real annoying.
Could I set this up in my 18 wheeler truck?
If you've got Wi-Fi in your truck, sure! But a dash cam may be a much better fit for adding a camera to your rig.
i wish you would of covered costs
Does that pick up on animals that walk by?
Sure does @Fonda
This sounds more like an advertisement than a review!
