I was looking for an outdoor camera to keep an eye on my dogs in the yard when I'm not home. kzitem.infoUgkxOXxsTZ3ptV_Pk0fFl8bNZvVqeoqBQFwe Tried a different one that was absolutely terrible, so I got these instead. They work perfectly! With 3 of these cameras I can see every corner of the yard, and they were very easy to set up. The best part is I only get the footage I want to see, not hours of videos of the bird feeder swaying in the breeze.

You can use this camera anywhere, indoor or outside and you don’t need a subscription to use any of the Wyze cameras. All Wyze cameras record for 12 seconds once the motion or sound detection is triggered. All Wyze cameras can record 24/7 when used with an SD card EXCEPT the Wyze Outdoor in which case the subscription maybe useful. The Outdoor does have an SD card slot but it’s not for 24/7 recording, it’s for specific recordings by you, a lot like using a regular video camera & doesn’t require WiFi to record to the SD card. This brand of security camera’s are by far the Best & cheapest I’ve ever owned. There’s also the Wyze V3 camera that can be used outdoors but it’s not completely wireless, it has a power cord that needs to be plugged in and it uses WiFi to transmit video to the app.

A couple things I noticed in your video and that I am experiencing myself. 1) when you were adjusting the max video to 5 minutes, did you notice the window heading said “Recording Cooldown”? I have mine set to 5 minutes but still only get 12 second recordings. It’s as if the max video function is nonexistent. 2) there is an SD card slot and I was recording to it prior to the availability of Cam Plus. I am using Cam Plus now so I don’t know if the SD card is actually recording. 3) there is also an SD card slot on the hub/base that is supposed to be a backup recording of each camera. 4) one of my cameras no longer holds a charge for more than 36 hours no matter how much action it sees. 5) another camera sounds as if the mic is partially blocked. It only picks up louder sounds such as a loud car or a door shutting. No voices. 6) even with all the updates, I’m still experiencing videos that pick up the person leaving the frame but not entering. Wyze is sending me a whole new system (base plus 4 cameras) as a warranty replacement but it has been back ordered for about 2-3 months now. Still waiting.

My need for security cameras is for detailed video to identify people stealing or trespassing on a rural property. Thanks for your time, great video.

the record time is 12 seconds for free rn, and the cooldown is as low as 1 min with the outdoor cam. the base station can currently be used with wifi (but has to be set up with a wire first) video is decent quality but can be choppy depending on the connection strength. however with an sd card in the camera u can have it record at full quality etc

The outdoor camera has tons of known issues. So they added a firmware update which you must use to enable CamPlus. --> Important: Update your Wyze app to 2.22 by July 21, 2021. Sadly this disables the use of CamPlus, so all you get is 12second videos. This error is a "Known Issue", this is just terrible software. New firmware is in process.
@ddramos7997

That update is also in the V2, which I purchased months ago but just started using the other day for outdoor (security) by setting it up in windows with the IR turned off. Wyze says they will no longer be supporting the V2. The problem is not the video, but rather that it has all kinds of other problems, like it doesn't always sense motion (even when it's right in front of the camera), sometimes it won't record because it says it doesn't have the SD card installed, when it clearly does, and the app itself even confirms it. Other times it gives an error message saying it can't "fetch" the video playback from the cloud. And of course, true to Wyze, the notifications take forever, so you'll see the back of the person (if at all) instead of clearly seeing their face when arriving. It's a mess, and the outdoor sounds like it's just as bad. You'd think with all the time that's passed between the V2 and the outdoor cams, they'd have fixed these known issues already.

You can use the outdoor camera without subscription! You will be limited to 12 seconds of recording clips, but unlimited amount of clips. It also offers 14 days of free storage. The down fall is that you may miss an action between clips as each one has few seconds between them. The subscription just adds the length of the clips up to 5 min..
