Hi I would like to no can i put the camera on the inside of my window to film the outside of my front porch. Also do I have to pay a fee for recording my camera on a budget🤔
I'm considering getting two of these as baby monitors. My concern is that they won't wake me overnight if my kids wake up. Can you set it to play the audio of the video? Or is there a setting that you can say it to constantly alarm so I don't miss the notification?
Great review thank you! Just a quick question - if I leave my house will I still be able to view the live view? Or can you only use live-view when you are connected to your Wifi? Thanks!
@@GaugingGadgets great question I was wondering the same, how does the app work outside of the home without wifi, do settings need to be reset to go off your mobile phone dat a etc? I'm a learner when it comes to security cams,so I have no idea how they work without the home internet etc
@@traceelements1965 Nothing changes really. If you're phone as access to the internet through mobile data or another wifi network, you will be able to access your camera. Thank you for watching!
Thanks. Is the detected motion push notification just a text message or will it also send a video or maybe a photo of the intruder, and will it do this even without subscribing to a cloud service. If the camera is vandalized, you wont be able to play a clip from the SD card, but will it at least send an image as a notification?
If I set my camera on a end table in our living room facing the hallway, how many feet from the camera into the hallway can this camera see? Would use it to watch our dogs when we are out of the house.
Aside from motion detection, is it possible to set up (continuous) recording on this camera if you purchase the SD card? Example: 8 hours of continuous recording of a baby in a crib?
Can the KASA spot, trigger from any where in the world I do travel quite bit .. can i also control the recording from my cellphone ? Can I save the video in my cellphone or do I have to have a ☁️ from KASA app ?
Great video! A quick question: Can I connect the device with multiple mobiles? For example if we have this camera at home, can both me and my gf can connect to it when we are outside? Thanks.
Yes you can. I've tested. Basically you create an account and the camera is associated to your account. So you can have multiple mobile devices using the same account and checking the same cameras at the same time. I've just tested here. Used both my phone and tablet (being outside)
I just looked at an online version of the user manual and found this: "Free Cloud Storage - Record up to two days of video activity per camera at no cost and save favorite moments to your phone. Upgrade options available." Did you see that in your documentation? Reason I ask is because we want to catch cats coming through our cat's door over night and we don't need or want to store videos for very long, just long enough for us to look at them and identify the cats.
I'm thinking of getting one to put on my front door and use it to see out the spy hold Has anyone done this, will it see ok as the hole is a glass telescope type
@GaugingGadgets Does this camera allows you to watch a liveview without internet if you are on the same WIFI connection? like for example the HS100 and HS103 lets you control the device even when the internet is down, the App will show: Local Only, could you make a test to see if it works the same with this camera? My internet connection is not too reliable but I work from home, so I want to be make sure it will let me watch a liveview locally without internet.
I have the smart light bulb, smart light switch and smart plug and they all work beautifully and sync real will with my Google Home Hub. I will look into getting this indoor camera and if I can find it anywhere the outdoor camera for my backyard. Thank you for the review. I think it will work well for what I want to achieve for added security.
Question I have the KC 100 2pac Once I leave my home I have contact so when I get home I have re progam our cell phones Somtimes it will work most time I lose the signals Can u help .
I just bought the tp link tapo c100. It looks identical but the sound quality from the cameras speaker is pretty much useless. It's extremely distorted regardless of settings or phone I use to talk through. Do you know if these are the same or could the speakers be different.
I've never heard of the tapo c100 but just looked it up. They appear to be the same products. The quality of the speaker on the KC100 isn't great but it is easy to understand what is said through it.
@@GaugingGadgets that seems to be the general consensus. The camera is fantastic for the price but a clearer speaker would be great as my kids just don't understand what I'm saying. I don't suppose you'd recommend another one with a decent speaker?
Hi Guaging Gadgets, great video on this camera, as I was looking for a nice basic security camera, as the basic d-link models are no longer available. Question, can you download a video taken with the camera, to your phone? Thanks for your great video. Just subscribed.
Excellent review. Subscribed and 👍. I know it's been more than 3 years since you posted this video. My question is about the LED light that comes out from the camera itself. How bright is it at night? Do you think I will be able to sleep if I want to record my sleep behavior at night? Unfortunately for me I'm sensitive as far as lights around me when in bed. Thanks for the video and your help.
Got this and it says its 9v If this is right on the box side do not use a phone power bank and no way use the USB power at 9v for phones Can anyone please look on the PSU or box and post the info
Wondering if its a new rev But if it is 9v and tplink have used USB then its irresponsible of them because a 9v USB charger type plugs laying around could be picked up and used for a phone or PC USB device USB is standard its bad enough playing with the amps
Sometimes i get a color video at night a d sometimes black and white it is set on night vison the surrounding light is always the same. I would like recordings to always in color at night I would like
The fact that this camera requires a mobile app to work is a *BIG* no-no and essentially makes this camera entirely useless. The moment that app has any issues or goes down your camera becomes useless. Unacceptable and idiotic to say the least.
"very clear video" "high quality".. clearly the quality is poor. In which world is this video high quality???... The price vs quality is good though, considering getting one.

@@GaugingGadgets firstly,thank you for responding so quickly & thanks also for help..
@@GaugingGadgets I have this phone and I can only see my Live view in the app when I'm connected to my phone.
Any suggestions??
how many hours of continues recording can be done by this cam?
Thanks. Is the detected motion push notification just a text message or will it also send a video or maybe a photo of the intruder, and will it do this even without subscribing to a cloud service. If the camera is vandalized, you wont be able to play a clip from the SD card, but will it at least send an image as a notification?
If I set my camera on a end table in our living room facing the hallway, how many feet from the camera into the hallway can this camera see? Would use it to watch our dogs when we are out of the house.
I listened to this in the background and I didn't catch any information about accessing it remotely, say from when you are out of town. Did I miss it?
Can it be used as a webcam for Skype or fb video call ?
Does it save motion detected portions automatically? And save it in your phone app to check out and eventually save it?
Aside from motion detection, is it possible to set up (continuous) recording on this camera if you purchase the SD card? Example: 8 hours of continuous recording of a baby in a crib?
Anyone ever answer that?
@@dennisjackson3704 i actually purchased a few of them and yes with the sd card you can record continuously.
@@KillaMC305 thanks. Does the night vision switch actually as loud as it sounds on the videos?
@@dennisjackson3704 yes
Can you have the live view on continuously? Like if used as a baby monitor?
Little issue with mine. It wont record onto my sd card. All the Setting that I know of are correct. Am I missing something?
$28 on sale at Best Buy. Also the new ones come with a slot for micro SD.
Thanks! I was able to connect my camera after watching this video.
I'm really glad you found it helpful. Let me know if you have any questions. Thank you for watching and please consider liking and subscribing! :)
Great no nonsense video showing everything you need to know before buying :)
Any idea how long it will run off the power bank?
Hello , ty for the video, how many days can u storage in a 64 gb micro sd card?
Can you add more then one person to the account?
Is the 2k vs 1080p cameras a big difference? I’d like to use it for a baby monitor
I haven't noticed that much of a different.
Can the KASA spot, trigger from any where in the world I do travel quite bit .. can i also control the recording from my cellphone ? Can I save the video in my cellphone or do I have to have a ☁️ from KASA app ?
Does this work with WiFi but without internet?
Can the kasa camera be viewed on my phone remotely 5 miles away?
Good job 👍. Great details covered all. Convince me to buy. Amazon 3 for $90.
Great video!

@@danielcalencar thank you very much for the answer. Cheers!
@@farukkaplan8800 no problem mate! Cheers!
@@danielcalencar So are you saying if im like 5kms away, can i still access it? Sorry im kinda blur.
@@stevenyes1269 Definitely, mate. As long as your camera has some access to a wifi (say at home), you can be in another country and still access it

Can you connect this camera with a 5ghz network if that is the only connection?
I'm thinking of getting one to put on my front door and use it to see out the spy hold
Has anyone done this, will it see ok as the hole is a glass telescope type
I wonder why mine doesn’t show recent activity? Is it cause I need the sd card? Or I need the monthly subscription?
do you have to have cloud subscription?

can we use it as webcam for video conference as well ?
Im looking for a camera for top of my bedroom door so its looking down my Hall way in my house would this be the best for me to buy
I think it would work great for that usage. As long as it as access to power. If not, I would look at a blink camera.
Dad is old, 86, lives alone. 3 cameras on 3 different divisions, possible? We are 3 sons, can we all access all 3 cameras on our own mobiles?
hi,does it have ptz?mechanical movement?
no battery? if the power goes off?
Super great review! Made me want to buy forsure!
Can this camera record without the wire/plug in?

Thank you for your support. I don't think it would be too bright but you should be able to disable the LED in the settings.
Great review. Thanks!
Very well explained. Thank you.
can you share live view to a family from outside the country?
Any way to turn Kasa Spot into a time lapse camera?
How do you insert SD card??? Thx
Best review of this camera thanks
TP Link Kasa is the best smart home stuff!
Hey man love ur vids u should try out the Wyze cam
Thanks, I needed this.
On Best Buy it says that this camera is wireless is that true
It requires power through a micro usb plug and uses WiFi to transmit.
Wife, loved it.
Thanks for this great video
I recently got a Kasa spot KC105 (The one with the Micro SD slot) can you make a video on how to record onto the SD card?
iv ordered that today , was it easy to set up ?
@@philipohanlon2106 It's a lot easier than expected. =)
Don't get how to connect hot spot is not how easy it is you say I have android1 couldn't connect fach
can i watch my camera kasa for 6 hour nonstop from my tablet
It's not a webcam for laptop usage pertaining to Zoom, Skype, etc. It's sole purpose is for surveillance recording only.
correct
Got this and it says its 9v
If this is right on the box side do not use a phone power bank and no way use the USB power at 9v for phones
Can anyone please look on the PSU or box and post the info
Thank you! Excellent.
Excellent review, thanks!
Excellent! Thanks!
Very informative. Thx
Glad it was helpful!
Helpful. Thanks a lot
Excellent video man!
Thank you!
A major limitation with this camera is that it can only be viewed on the TP-Link app.
Good video, thanks
Can I add two of the same camera on one app
Yes, just give them different names to avoid confusion.
@@GaugingGadgets will this camera work with zoom????
@@FashowPeople Unfortunately it will not.
@@FashowPeople you can with streaming phone to pc and on obs download virtual webcam plugin then add the live feed and stream to zoom
Wondering if its a new rev
But if it is 9v and tplink have used USB then its irresponsible of them because a 9v USB charger type plugs laying around could be picked up and used for a phone or PC USB device
USB is standard its bad enough playing with the amps
I run one thru the USB on my PC
Sometimes i get a color video at night a d sometimes black and white it is set on night vison the surrounding light is always the same. I would like recordings to always in color at night
I would like
Cheers man
