Hello there: I' want to get the camera installed without paying subscription since the camera was a gift for someone in need and I don't want the commitment. Amazon customers tell me it can be dine same as La view customer service but I couldn't do it since the app doesn't allowed me to skip the subscription step. what can I do? Thank you
I was thinking about taking out the glasses because at night it blocks night vision because they are using infrared light. It reflects the light and you cannot see anything.
@@TechGeniusHacks it’s my first night with mine installed. I turned off starlight mode and also set night mode to color and that did the trick for me. I have similar lamp shade to yours although I do like yours more!!!
A: If you insert an SD card into the camera, you could choose 24/7 recording or event recording. As for the distance, it is 30-50 meter in the daytime and 10-15 meter at night under IR cut mode.
@@TechGeniusHacks My iPhone doesn’t have an sd card slot. My son’s does but he’s still trying to figure out how to find his recordings on it. I just have 50GB of iCloud. Tech support chat is still Beta and is never working so far.
@@RitaAnne2362 hey rita. Camera has an sd card input. You need to put it there. There is an app on your phone. Install it and you can watch it on your phone. The recorded video is coming from the camera sd card.
I bought some other cameras more expensive than this. I really don’t like them. This one is very accurate. It works very well. Where do you want to use?
@@rizzitheghost as you see in the video, when I turn the camera, the video quality is good. It is not lagging. It is very responsive. I thought this one was good amzn.to/3JanpKC it is terrible. There is no motion tracking on this. If you want to see the video live, it takes 1 min to load. I returned it.
Is this waterproof cause I want to put mine outside my home similar to how you did but if the glass you put around blocks the night vision the camera will be destroyed if you take the protective glass out.
I have to get a security camera to provide evidence of harassment from the people that moved next door to me. I wanted to get this for the outside porch light. Since this device does not have a bright light display, how well does it work with night vision? And just to be clear, all I have to do is screw it into the outdoor porch socket, correct?
If there is nothing in front of it like glass, the night vision is good. Yes you are right just put it there and do the set up with wifi and it is ready to go.
Loved your initial reaction when you got the camera up and running: "Wow, that's awesome!" I was pretty much sold right there, but I just need to know if the camera can be inserted into a socket at the BASE of a fixture. In other words, I need it to stand up instead of hanging down. (I couldn't find the answer on the Amazon page.)
Thanks 🙏🏻 Yes it has a base for socket. When you check the video. You can see there. I got this around $34 and I got another one which was around $100. $100 one was trash :) but this one.
@@TechGeniusHacks Oh...DUH! I should have realized that since you tested the bulb in the upright position, it would also work in a fixture with the socket at the base. Thanks for the great review. I'll be ordering it in about 10 seconds! And I subscribed to your channel.
Installed it myself without any issues. The wifi signal is great even ruclips.net/user/postUgkxE_D_sddGAdiVUKp7PkkmyxO7bRtgqmk5 when the router is located far away. I really enjoy the night vision feature that allows me to see clearly any activity near our house (mostly cars and wild animals). The motion detection is helpful to me as well to monitor what happens on our front.
They are total scamers, though. They messaged me asking me to message them on their app to leave a review for a free SD card. Once I did it, they said they couldn't "provide" me a free SD card any longer. I am tempted to send everything back
Great camera l have and love it. I get to spy on my neighbors lol and none of my packages better not go missing great value for the price. I already recommended to one of my friends who live alone.
@@TechGeniusHacks yes. I already have some other product (a color changing light bulb) already connected to the 2.4Ghz connection with no problem. So it weird. I think I got screwed over
@@jennaquinn84 I was trying to connect mine first I got some problem with it and then I learned that there was a problem with my 2.4 G Internet connection.

This is working with SD card. You are not obligated to use cloud.
@TechGeniusHacks thank you. But how can I see the video without using the app? Sorry I'm horrible with this stuff
@@gloriaiarango you will see the video what the sd card records
Take out the sd card and insert it into your computer and play it but it is too hard and time consuming
How do you set the timer to turn the light off and on? I have this unit and I'm confused about the dial setting in the app
Light can be triggered if it sees something or you can completely turn on or off. There is no timer. Sorry if I am mistaken.
Can you control the light to shut it on and off ? Or is it always automatic
What is a good way to protect it from rain ? I have exact same one ,works great but it's not water proof. I don't have a cover for it.
IP67 weatherproof rating for indoor and outdoor use
Amazon also has socket extenders if you want more range or your light to be longer or a different length for a good price. Just fyi.
If there is glass around the light bulb, it intervenes the night vision. You need an extender for that or remove the glass around the lightbulb area
Can you send a link to the lantern thats attached to your front porch?? The camera and that specific porch lantern work perfectly!!!

@@TechGeniusHacks it’s my first night with mine installed. I turned off starlight mode and also set night mode to color and that did the trick for me. I have similar lamp shade to yours although I do like yours more!!!
Why can’t I get a clear view it’s very dark or very light
So you don’t need an as card?
Yes because it doesn’t have subscription plan.
Why does sometimes the light bulb kicks on by itself?
What do you mean?
@@Techgeniusideas sometimes at night the light bulb kicks on ....is that because it detects movement?
Does it record continuously when using SD card?
A: If you insert an SD card into the camera, you could choose 24/7 recording or event recording.
As for the distance, it is 30-50 meter in the daytime and 10-15 meter at night under IR cut mode.
Thank you. How many hours will it record with 128GB SD card?
I’m definitely buying one now. Thanks
Hope you enjoy it!
what sd card do need to order
It is mini sd card. This can be a good fit. amzn.to/48Sqb3d
Can I get live feed in Google home app?
I haven’t tried it yet but you can get the live feed
So I have to purchase the LaView cloud storage? Thanks.
No it has sd card. You can use local storage

Does it light up as a light bulb as well?
No it doesn’t. It has light but it is not as powerful as regular light
Good review, I like how it was tracking you. I am going to buy this camera.
I know right. Quality of video is awesome also. I mean it is very responsive
Would you recommend this over other cameras around its price point?
I bought some other cameras more expensive than this. I really don’t like them. This one is very accurate. It works very well. Where do you want to use?
@@TechGeniusHacks That’s good to know, thank you! I was thinking outdoors. One in the front of the house and the other on the back door on my deck.

It says weatherproof. If there is glass around it, it doesn’t see at night

@@TechGeniusHacks I will. It's due for delivery on 3/25 and I can hardly wait!
@sandychilds3253 did you like it?
I'm about to order two

How do you connect it to 2.4hz when you got 5g
You need to go to your router and enable 2.4g
So you have had this camera for a while now. Was it worth it? Does the camera have the same quality as when it was new?
Yes. It is worth it. It is already so cheap.
@@Techgeniusideas How long have you had your camera?
Hello. How far does motion tracking pick up a human at night?
You can set the settings on how sensitive you want.
Not sure why, but real time video is too laggy and buffering with mobile network.
Mine was quick. It is probably due to your internet connection or frequency.
Why would they make an outdoor security cam that isn’t suppose to get wet? I guess I’ll stink to my Ring
It is water resistance.
I hope it doesn’t last as long as a light bulb
😂 I mean it is man-made and it has moving parts. What should I say?
They are total scamers, though. They messaged me asking me to message them on their app to leave a review for a free SD card. Once I did it, they said they couldn't "provide" me a free SD card any longer. I am tempted to send everything back
That is strange. You did the right thing. That is thing I cannot stand against injustice. 👏👏👏👏
Great camera l have and love it. I get to spy on my neighbors lol and none of my packages better not go missing great value for the price. I already recommended to one of my friends who live alone.
Thanks please let me know your ideas when you or friend uses it
I just got mine and it won't connect I'm having issues with it and tried to contact customer support they have no phone number to call which sucks!
