You just provided a solution to my dilemma of finding an inexpensive way to capture plant growth. As a grad student, that is gold! Thank you so much!
For anyone getting the Wyze V2 cameras, I bought these after watching this vid & mine arrived yesterday... there’s a glitch that won’t show your timelapse in your album after stopping them. After googling & reading a tonne of threads it seems heaps of ppl have the same issue BUTTTT I worked it out, it’s a quick fix, just take a random photo on the Wyze cam and then look in your album and your timelapse will be there now in videos as well as that random pic in photos. 💜✨
Thank you so much for sharing that bit of info! I'm gonna try this camera out so it' good to know how to deal with the issue if I come across it. Yaye, sharing is caring...lol
Dude....yes. Thanks.
Nice
I did a 3 day 5 minute timelapse, then stopped it, told it to 'stop and save' and there's nothing in the album. It does say it has 20 GB on the SD card, but no SD reader and taking out the SD card sucks. Tried a 3 second time lapse as a test and those do save and I can copy to phone, to PC. Bit annoying. I had to fix the focus of the v3 version with a reading glasses. And there's interference horizontal waves of differing brightness, maybe because of the grow light being really bright.
oh yess, you made a video about timelapse, as I requested in one of the earlier comments, nice, thanks!
I was literally just looking for a good plant time-lapse camera! you popped off here
Hoocho cooked hard in this one!! 🔥🔥🔥
I have a bunch of these cameras already and I had no idea it had this feature. Thanks for the video!
The horizontal brightness lines on some grow light videos recorded by the Wyze can are because the LEDs are mostly not always on. It may be they are 100% on at the highest brightness. If they are dimmable, they flicker. If your board opted to be higher efficiency, they may not run 100% even at 100% brightness. The image by Wyze cam is constructed horizontally, pixel by pixel. And it captures images at a certain rate. If there is a certain relationship by the frame capture rate of Wzye and the flickering of your LEDs, you can have some pixels that are darker because the LEDs at that point are not powered and less bright. Wyze does not allow you to adjust capture rate or shutter speed. Seems the only way to fix that is to adjust the LED brightness so they go out of sync.
No flipping way!!!! I bought my wyze cams in 2020. I've wanted to tape my plants growing for so long. I cannot believe I didn't realize this until I found your video! Thank you for sharing. I can't wait to start. Yayyyyyyyy 🎉🎉🎉
Thank u sir. In this video U have educated which no one has been able to educate. Thanks again and stay blessed
You’re incredible! Thank you for this!!
Thank you so much for making this, always wanted to know how people did this. Have to try this one day.
This is great. I’ve been wanting to do more timelapses. I have GoPro hero 7, now I can add more cameras to do more than one timelapse at a time. Thanks.
Great video Hoocho! I’m definitely interested in how you set up the slider and program it with the Wyze Cam V2! Your time lapse plant videos are awesome! ❤️
Thanks Hoocho,impressive Video
Hoocho. Now you have taught me something!
crazy I found your channel for your awesome Kratky tomatoes and now I'm back learning about timelapse. subbed. thanks bro!
Hello from South Africa my hydroponic brother dig your show keep at it mate
That was excellent Hoocho!
Thanks for showing that time lapse can be affordable.
Hey. Thank you so much for this information. you are helping people!
I finally started a RUclips backyard gardening channel one year ago. Hopefully I can start recording time lapse grow videos. Love from California brother.
Thx for the info! Really like the time lapse of the plants. Will try it myself with your info.
The Wyze worked great! Super cheap and easy.
Thanks Mate I asked as probably did others and now we have received, great job “Bob”
Yeah I got your comment 😊 had it in my mental to do haha
nice thank you
its perfect
I can't say how much stuff I've learned from you and a few others on here. My gawd u got good ideas. Love my wyze cams. I have 3 now. But not using 2 so I have to use 1 for the plants. This seems pretty cool.
Great video Hoocho.
I recently made a time lapse camera setup that suited my budget, meaning Free.
Using an old Android phone (Samsung Galaxy S2) installed a free time-lapse app.
I had the phone plugged in to a charger on the wall and the phone was on a tripod.
The phone's flash was handy for when the grow light was off, so the images were all in color. (no IR, BW images)
The phone goes in to sleep mode and only wakes up when the app is about to take a pic and it only connects to Wifi at that same time then shuts off again.
Every time it took a snapshot, it sent it via Wifi to my Google Documents folder, this was sync'd on my PC folder. This means my PC doesn't have to be on and I don't have to use a memory card or disconnect/disturb the camera from it's position.
It didn't construct a video but instead made snapshots which I then ran a dos command to assemble a video from them using FFmpeg (free small video tool)
I don't believe this is any more difficult than someone having to learn how to paste two videos together.
Hi, what time lapse app do you use? I'm using Framelapse and it makes the video by itself, but I'd like to try your system
Just ordered 3 of the V3. Thanks mate. 👍👍
Quality content incoming! Keen!
@@Hoocho I'm getting lazy. I will be setting them up at 3 sec intervals to film my work in the yard🤣
Half the reason why I haven't been filming is I'm a grower/tinkerer first & Tuber second. 😉😁
@@RobsAquaponics Sometimes the grind of a video a week can get to us even if we are passionate.
I’ve been struggling at the moment with all the distractions and uncertainty around current events.
If you need any help setting them up give me a yell. They’re pretty simple tho, make sure you turn off the wyze logo in settings.
@@Hoocho Cheers Mr Hoocho. 😁😁👍👍
"I'm going to show you my mistakes so you don't have to make them"
Hell. Yes.
I tried doing this with a different cheap "go pro" type camera and a nice DSLR. Struggled for quite a while before getting a shitty quality video and gave up. Just bought a wyze! Thank you!!!
No worries mate!
A 120 days timelapse fried my GoPro battery :)
4k footage went from 40 to 10 minutes.
Good informative video!
More of this kind of content please 😃
I just found your video yesterday. I decided against using my GoPro & ordered the Wyze Outdoor cam since my vines are outside. It arrived today, I've got it set up for a test shoot for the next hour, then I'm trying the 30-day time lapse! *fingers crossed* Thank you so much for all the information! Very straightforward & helpful. We'll see how it turns out in October! Cheers!
How did it turn out?
Bro thank you so much you just saved me hundreds of dollars
THANK YOU!
bloody brilliant video Mitch, Id been looking at the Brianna an go pro, glad you posted this as Id known about wyze for surveillance cameras but this just sold it to me, cheers mate another great informative video!
Awesome video, thank you!
this is the way
😂
Great info there old chap ! 👍
Found it! bloody legendary! love yer work mate! Keep it up! Cheers! :D
04:53 night work by using IR light might disturbed the night cycle of the plant
My new time lapse camera has a star light sensor . Night pictures in full colour and 1080 . So More infra red . Also. Waterproof.
great vid mate gunner get one
❤️❤️❤️ thanks for sharing.
I feel like I just asked about this from u
u provided quick and informative information (I’m sure others have asked as well)
I saw your comment, I’ve been getting a heap of questions about it but your comment was the straw that broke the camels back.
Finally got round to it 😊
Thank you very much ‼️
I liked and subscribed 🤠
I have a question . I never did a time lapse. I grow orchids for many years and I always wanted to make a time lapse. My question is do I need the turn table to make a time lapse of a flower ? Thanks
Thank you so much for this! Any chance you could update this with 2023 cameras and the slider?
I'm looking for a camera for my drawings. I was thinking of getting the wyze v3. Is it any different from the v2?
Is there a particular date you would like to have the video by? (Now I need to purchase some Wyze cameras.😁🌱🍅)
Let’s make it September 1st (first day of spring in Australia, autumn in the northern hemisphere)
Have you tried the ATLi EON Time Lapse Camera?
I heart you for ever
Sounds good I would love to learn to use the slider.
What is the mount that you have your Wyze camera in?
I'm featuring you and this video in one of my upcoming uploads about the Wyze V3, I'm referring to you as a fellow Australian, is that correct?
Yeah mate cheers!
@@Hoocho vid's up!
You did not mention the Wyze camera only supports 2.4Ghz wifi :(
2:25 why not just charge the battery on a timer. Like 1 hour each day.
Just saw this but I’m getting flickering and the black lines in the time lapse. Is there anyway to get rid of that?
nice
This video is much appreciated! I've been wanting to get into Time-Lapses as your videos are heckin' cool. I could watch these all day, haha. I would love to see how you set up the edelkrone for future reference. :) Thanks a ton for all your content!
Good morning sir please call me 8 I have not 87 my
now i need a vid on your home brew system lol
Got you covered: How to Brew Beer Cheap & Easy! ruclips.net/video/WjifwNexix0/видео.html
The wyzecam looks great. I don't have a smart device though is there a cheap timelapse camera that doesn't require a smart device and an app to be downloaded ?. Thanks
How do you prevent the flickering?
This looks awesome. Hoocho what Gimbal do you use to help or hold your phone when you do the videos outdoors? Anyone else have any recommendations on this?
what would be the best settings to film a garage construction timelapse ? best intervals ? :)
Hoocho. You can film with gopro while charging even if you take the battery off. Then your battery will not warm up.
This is a game changer
Thank!
Idk the quality doesn’t seem 1080
sunlight equal to which light
Thanks for this. So what function does ‘events’ perform within the settings of wyse cameras?
Hoocho~ I love this video. Many thank yous. Say, I am looking to do a timelapse with exposure lock. (I'd have controlled lighting and a white background) Without exposure lock it will likely look horrible. Any advice?
great, which is the right choice? Wyze Cam V2 vs Wyze V3?
0:30 why light on and off every 30 min - 1 hour ?~
I have a gopro but it gets SOOO hot I really am afraid its going to melt or damage the footage. Its a great little camera but it needs a larger battery space. I might go for the TLC2020 and get rechargeable batteries - can charge them via solar panels or battery banks with a usb...savage!
Hello again. When I look up the v2 on amazon the camera body shape is different from your demo, but perhaps has the same time lapse functions you covered. The v3 is square but I didn't now if the v3 is as good. Do you know?
Do you think there is any concern of the ir lights impacting plants night cycle and causing hermaphrodites?
I bought the wyze 3 camera, but am finding with the LED grow light it creates horizontal lines that flicker, making it very hard to see the plant growth. I read online that it is because the shutter speed is the same/similar to the lights electrical pulses. You need a camera where you can adjust the shutter speed for grow lights. Anyone have any tips? Tricks? Works well at night when the light is off.
I have the same problem with my wyze cam v3. How did you avoid this?
I tried soo many times to using gopro 7 black but the thing is, I can't capture timelaps without flicker. Please help me 😣
2:27 not true. With the proper power supply you can power the go-pro (I have the 11) directly with out the battery. If the go-pro complains that the power supply is not adequate but actually is, you can trick the camera by powering it on with the battery and after it booted up (and having the USB cable plugged in) you can remove the battery. I left the camera on for 6 months with this method.
This was an excellent video. We are just preparing experiment with pine seedlings and thought that we could set time-lapse cameras to try to find growing patterns with image recognition. This Wyze camera seems very interesting since it has also the infrared. How is the lens though? Does it distort the. picture from the sides of the picture?
I've tried it on cctv xiaomi dafang, but the resulting file is a h264 video file, not an image capture. while the recording is usually mp4. did it happen to your wyze too? how to edit h264 video file?
I though extra IR light was harmful to night cycle?
Seen ya on channel 7 news last night mate
I know... The bastards stole my video without permission or giving me credit.
I reported their RUclips video for copyright.
Bit rude. I would’ve been happy with a credit in the corner or the description.
How's the close-up shot on this thing? Because I'm planning to make a timelapse of a venus flytrap in close-up.
Can you link all the devices u bought from
Lol. Whatcha using wickr for? 👀😂
Time lapse a bonsai please!
Also does anyone here know what the focal range of the v2 is?
Hi bro, i want to ask question. Did you rest ur camera for a while? Or ur camera just shooting whole day without rest?. I got error notification when shooting for 12 hours
I run for a month at a time
@@Hoocho without a single rest? Maybe for 10-15 minutes?
Hello, I have the Wyze v3 camera. I started my time lapse and ran it for 7 days at 3 minute intervals to record a plant. When I went to my album, the video was there but it was only 7 seconds long. It seems to have only recorded when it detected movement. Is there a way to disable movement detection? I followed all the steps in this video but it didn't seem to work. I might be missing something. Thank you and cheers,
Yo have to turn off event recording. I have wyze cam v3 as well but I see horizontal black lines in the video. Did you get it as well? How to avoid it?
yeah wyze don't work for me, videos don't save to album and sometimes works sometimes nothing. ruined my whole plant grow time lapse. tried 2 wyze and 2 sd's trash camera, only good for live stream
Great video - keen to do some fig cutting growing Timelapse’s. Wyze have a V3 out now - struggling to see if they still have Timelapse feature or not. Do you know Hooch?
Yeah they do.
@@Hoocho thanks - just bought one - here’s hoping I can make a cool Perspex planter to visualise the root growth 😂
@@rinosaint@hoocho My wyze cam V3 produces horizontal black lines when I place them near my plants under grow light. How do I avoid it?
@@kayy6109might need to change the frame rate of the camera if possible? Could be at 60 fps - try 30 and these might go away. Unsure how to do this though 😇
I'm not interested in plants at all but love the tech and the timelapse. Great video.
so Ive got 10hrs of 3d print time-lapse and having trouble figuring how to get it off the iPhone so I can edit it somehow, I took out the sd card and now trying to import it to iMovie, how do you edit your vids Mitch?
You can edit on your phone using an app, or you can airdrop it to a Mac.
Is the sd card from the wyze?
@@Hoocho yep got the wyze cams last week and recorded it via the wyze apps time lapse thingy, sd card was in the cam, I couldn't figure out how to move it so took the sd card out and downloaded iMovie which I haven't used in like ten years! struggling!
ok just figured out how to airdrop now to figure out how to see/save the video from the cam to airdrop it
Hoocho Bro what percentage of nitro cal would i mix i with dimond blue per liter or dimond white i have both of them
1g/L for all of them.
@@Hoocho thanks
My pictures have lines in it from my grow lights. How do I get rid of them? I’m using the same Wyze camera
The grow light is likely not compliant with electrical standards. I’ve had similar problems with filming cheap grow lights.
The refresh rate of the LED matches the video frame rate.
There isn’t anything you can do.
@@Hoocho Ok I appreciate the info. this is a high end cannabis led grow light. I was really hoping to do something like you are doing. Thanks again
@@1877sandycreek ah bugger, I’ve had it happen with an expensive one too. Try adjusting the brightness down a touch and see if that affects it.
A little late to the party, but try a polarized lens (sunglasses). It worked for me.
Can you teach us how to play like King giz😂
I’m no wizard. Only the king of Gizz can teach such Wiz
Great video, except the music at the end. It was giving me goddam arrhythmia.
Wyze cam v3 is out now, do you think v3 might be better or should I go with v2?
I need a really close and detailed timalapse of my microgreens
@@phillip2304 the quality difference isn’t much in the end product, you’d save a lot by going to the V2
But if you need the waterproofing or don’t mind paying the v3 is a better package
@@Hoocho thank you for reply 🙌🏻. That is the weird part actually, v2 is $42 on amazon but v3 is $35. I thought v2 might be better because it is made for indoor but v3 made for indoor/outdoor. If it doesn’t make difference than it’s better to go with v3 I guess.
@@phillip2304 go the V3
Like
Thank you. I have bought the Wyze cam v3 as v2 wasn't available. But when I keep it near my plants under grow light, I see black lines moving up how do I prevent it?
