My first ever Wyze Cam death happened yesterday. The v3 lasted for about 3 years. All other cams are still working fine since 2019. Luckily the Black Friday sales started. I ordered a grey v4 to replace the dead v3 and bought an OG to replace an old v2. Good prices abound.

A few of my Wyze Cams are black, like the Cam OG I put out at the driveway , and I like how that blends in with the brick and the sconce. I have just the one grey Cam v4.

[image] Antonius: Too late, I already have my new one installed. Same here. Oh well. Both the V4 and OG installed.

Since late 2023 I have installed 18 V3, and 2 V3 Pan, and now 3 V4 cameras (some inside, some outside) to monitor a property. I had an outdoor V3 Pan fail a few months before its warranty was set to expire (it didn’t even survive 6 months). That one was replaced under warranty and I was told that …
