Introducing Wyze Cam Floodlight! - 11/9/21

it might very well be that the camera is not getting power but the rest of it is, in your case it sucks you already installed it , but maybe you should just throw it back in the box and exchange it for a new one at the depot

I agree. Right now, the v3 is attached to the floodlight and cannot be removed. Maybe Wyze felt it was necessary to ensure stability and weatherproofing. But options are always good.

+1 for different color temperature options. I was hoping it would be closer to 2800k but even a 3000k or 3300k would be les harsh looking than the bright white.

I would buy at least 2 right now if I could get that. For now holding off

The V3 cam is clearly detachable

Although if you wanted to get really crazy, giving the color range of the wyze bulb color could be interesting, Especially if you had some rules setup with the security setup so it would flash red and blue or something when the alarm is triggered

I said the exact same thing in another part of the forum. Must not be too crazy if at least two of us had the same brainstorm. :laughing:

I don’t have one yet so I can’t tell you for certain, but see here: Wyze Cam Floodlight Unboxing - YouTube at around 8:10. It seems like from this unboxing that the camera is built in.
Anyone here with more info on this?

My HD has these. Got 2 today. Installed one… Both are likely going back to the store. Just an over priced camera bracket / power supply.

cannot access PIR sensor in Rules
PIR only works at night
Motion in day time is reliant on pixel motion, which outside is trash.

I have one installed and did look at the camera, it seems like just one little screw holding it to the floor light.

oo

You got that right… Go to your local Home Depot.

Hi @UserCustomerGwen - could you please confirm if 220/ 240v are supported?

I believe your gripes are all listed in the available features on the box…as for access to pir, do you have updated app?

Huh, really? That makes no sense at all. Why would they give up the ability to avoid all those usual daytime shadow and leaf and insect and squirrel pixel based alerts?

Unless I am missing something. There is no where to access the pir sensor. Why I failed to get excited about this

So for me it turned out to be the camera not receiving power, just got back from HD and the other one works right away :+1:

Yup you’re missing something alright…(reading)…
It’s in the settings… On, off , range…

WARNING!!

Whoever is about to setup this flood light better be ready to wake up the neighborhood :person_facepalming: :rofl::rofl::rofl:

Iam talking using it both at night and day to trigger actions, such as recording, turn camera on etc. That menu doesn’t help

Ya… that would be cool… like trigger other devices like the led strip…etc…
