ieGeek 2K Solar Security Camera Outdoor Wireless, 360° Pan Black Battery Camera with Solar Panel, Wifi CCTV Camera Systems, Color Night Vision, PIR Motion Detection, 2-Way Audio, Works with Alexa

I have been using other ieGeek security cameras for some time as their affordability and ease of setup, make them a reasonably good choice for home surveillance. Recently, I purchased this new ieGeek security camera which has combined many desirable features such as, 360° Pan, Battery Camera, and Solar Panel. I have installed it at the front of my house, and it sits nicely under my first-floor window (I attach photos and a footage from the Camera). Here's my brief review: 1. Affordable: Very reasonable pricing 2. Easy Installation with Wireless Connectivity: Straightforward setup process - Wireless connectivity enables easy installation and flexibility in camera placement without the constraints of wired connections. 3. Decent Image Quality: While not on par with high-end security cameras, IeGeek camera offers satisfactory image quality for home security / monitoring. 4. Remote Viewing: Ability to remotely access camera feeds via a mobile app is a significant advantage to keep an eye on your home from anywhere with an internet connection. 5. Solar-Powered: Solar panel allows for continuous operation without the need for frequent battery replacements or manual recharging. 6. 360° Pan: Ability to pan 360 degrees provides extensive coverage, allowing to monitor a wide area without the need for multiple cameras. This feature enhances the camera's versatility and effectiveness in home monitoring. Keeping in view it’s price range, please do not expect advanced features such as auto pan, tilt, and zoom functionality. Overall, I consider the ieGeek Solar Security Camera as a versatile security camera well suited for my home security.

Summary The camera is the next step in quality from ieGeek. I have had a few ieGeek camera's and this one is by far the best one so far. Sharp and quick connectivity to Wifi are the top stand out features. Packaging & Installation The camera's come in a nice neat box and the packaging is at a good standard. Everything is properly sealed. The box comes with 2 seperate cameras, bear in mind you would have to install them separately. The package comes with the camera itself, solar panel, USB C to C charging cable(no block for socket) and screws, the screws are separate from the solar panel installation to the camera installation. You will need a size 6 drill bit for these particular screws and possibly a masonry drill bit if your drilling on wall. All together you will need to drill 5 holes if you want to install both the solar panel and the camera. If you plan to charge the camera and not install the solar panel then you need to drill 2 holes only. The camera's also come with a few stickers to deter any criminals. Quality & features The camera is packed with features to help with all your security needs. As you can see from some of the images the app is packed with different settings to fiddle around with including adjustments to the sensitivity and some basic Ai technology for detection. Miscellaneous features *You can move the camera almost 360 from app *2 way talking feature *Lights on camera, switch on via app or auto detection in night *Recording via SD however limited to 10 seconds per capture *Night vision There are plenty of other features which can cater for your needs. Battery & Charging Based on how many detections and sensitivity(on settings) my camera lasts around a month without solar, charging via USB-C takes a few hours. With solar it depends on sunlight and summer days are obviously better, I haven't had the opportunity to see how the solar panel plays in the winter. Alexa Connects to Alexa like a charm, name the camera something easy like 'front door' and then tell Alexa show me front door camera. The camera will show up on your Alexa for around 3/4 minutes before rerurning home. You need to connect to Alexa using the app and not directly through Alexa. Improvements The app still has a little room for improvement. The battery indicator when the solar panel is attached only shows a charging indicator but not the percentage. This can be problematic as you want to know if the camera is low on battery even if the panel is on. Although cloud is available at a subscription cost the SD only records for a few seconds longer then the free cloud storage. I would like a slightly longer recording time for SD. The camera is a little on the bulky size, which could be an advantage for some of you as you want it to be seen, however I find it a little too large. I can't give you a review on how it plays in extreme weather, my camera is not exposed to that scenario as it has a roof over it, so im not sure how the lens will be able to tolerate the weather.

I had a wifi connection problem with this camera. The support team gave rapid response assistance, over several days, with several suggestions of possible cause and rectification, all to no avail. They sent out a replacement camera which is now working very well. Excellent service for what has turned out to be a good camera. Recommended !!

Great camera, easy to set up and good quality images/recording day or night. Movement detection and alerting is effective. Solar panel keeps the battery fully charged. (Would like the option of continuous recording but understand that would drain the battery.)

Purchased these three weeks ago and fitted them straight away. They were easy to install and the instructions straight forward to understand. I've left this review a little to give a full evaluation of the system on how it works and the quality of footage. I can report that the quality of image and the history via a micro SD card is superb. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend iegeek system to anyone, I'm fact our neighbour has since purchased a system from our recommendation.

I recently purchased the ieGeek PTZ Solar Powered Battery Camera set, and it has exceeded all my expectations. Here's why: **Setup and Installation:** The installation process was straightforward and hassle-free. The package included all necessary hardware, and the step-by-step instructions were clear. The set comes with two cameras, which is fantastic for covering multiple areas around my home. The solar panels and wireless connectivity made it easy to set up the cameras without worrying about running wires or finding power sources. **Performance:** The image quality is excellent, both during the day and at night. The PTZ (Pan-Tilt-Zoom) feature is smooth and responsive, allowing me to cover a wide area and zoom in on specific details when needed. The motion detection is accurate and not overly sensitive, reducing false alarms. The quality is actually really good. **Battery Life and Solar Panel:** The solar panels work efficiently, keeping the cameras powered without needing frequent recharges. Even in cloudy conditions, the battery life has been impressive, lasting several days on a single charge. **Current Setup and Future Plans:** I have currently fitted one camera at the front of my house and plan to install the second camera in the back street soon. I just wish I could connect these cameras to my Hik-Connect system, which would integrate them with my existing security setup. I will update this review further once I install the second camera. **App and Connectivity:** The app is user-friendly and provides real-time alerts. Live streaming is seamless with minimal lag. I also appreciate the two-way audio feature, which lets me communicate with anyone near the cameras directly through my phone. **Conclusion:** Overall, the ieGeek PTZ Solar Powered Battery Camera set is a reliable and efficient solution for outdoor security. With two cameras included, it offers excellent value for money with its robust features and ease of use. I highly recommend this camera set to anyone looking to enhance their home security without the complications of wired systems.

I wanted a security camera that could work independently of mains power and work on a wireless network as the position of the camera was to protect a garage with no mains available at the chosen location. I already have 2x ieGeek wired cameras that work amazingly well in terms of picture quality and performance so I didn’t hesitate in purchasing the ieGeek Outdoor Solar Security Camera. The camera also has a built-in battery that is charged from the supplied solar panel so the camera will work at night. The other advantage of a battery powered camera is that it will still work if there is a power cut offering redundancy should the other wired cameras lose power. Also during a power cut you may lose internet connection however with this camera it will still record to an internal SD card (you have to supply your own SD card). I have had this camera installed for nearly two weeks now and it has performed flawlessly, you can configure the built in AI to detect people, vehicles, pets and parcels, I selected People and Vehicles and it works every time. The camera has a good wide filed of view and you can remotely pan and tilt the camera from the dedicated App. The only minor inconvenience is that the same App will not work with the existing cameras as they have different features. If you need a truly wire free security camera that is good value for money then I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending the ieGeek Outdoor Solar camera.

The camera is OK for the price. It is very easy to set up and connect, and the solar panel seems to charge the device very efficiently, even in the English winter. However, it has a massive drawback in that it will not record continuously to an installed SD card. It will record alerts for 6 seconds, and also when you have the app open on your phone, but shuts off when the app is closed. It is useless for monitoring. I guess it's cheap for a reason, and I am not paying for cloud storage, AI detection etc! Look elswewhere for these features.

All good so far , very easy to set up and install

Brilliant camera, clean picture, the fact it can charge on solar is perfect. Let's me know if someone walks near it and for the price, its well worth the buy

Ses caméras fonctionne très bien avec l'alimentation solaire. Je n'y croyais pas trop mais tout compte f as it c'est impeccable. C'est la quatrième que j'installe et tout fonctionne correctement, hyper facile à mettre sur l'application vous pouvez paramétrer facilement la zone de détection et les infos qu'elle renvoie sont correct pas de déclenchement intempestif. Idem en nuit, il y a à la place pour mettre une carte SD pour enregistrer tous les événements ce qui évite de prendre un abonnement pour garder les vidéos.

Recived a knock off product.

These cameras are excellent. Not to difficult to put up and the picture is very clear. I like the way you can move the direction of the camera all from the app. Highly recommended.
