Hello everyone, I’m looking to install a v2 camera outside my house, but I do not have any power source. I am curious to know if anyone was able to run these cameras, which one of these below solar panels. Solar Panels for Wireless Outdoor Security Camera, 5V 4W Waterproof Solar Panel Kit for Rec…

If you purchase the Wyze cam outdoor, it has a battery built in. Wyze also sells a solar panel. Due to the battery limitation the camera lacks a lot of features the wired cams have, but the battery lasts a long time, and if you have the solar panel it never needs recharging

Has anyone been able to run Wyze Outdoor Cam V2 completely on the solar panel in the northeast? I’m in MA and am wondering if our winters here would provide enough sunlight. I would charge the camera fully before mounting, but would greatly prefer not having to climb up there (ever) to recharge it. …

What is your usage? Will there be frequent events where the camera is located or watching? Will events be few and far between? Will you be live streaming from the camera often? All these questions will help determine battery usage and better estimates as to battery life.

All kinds of motion triggered events such as wind, leaves, rain, flying insects etc… Then with Cam Plus it is sorted out to just a few real AI screened events which requires uploading to cloud the video for analysis then a notification. Then additionally I live in a dense forest and from Late Nove…

Thanks. The cameras need to be placed in a rather dark corner of the yard, so I’m afraid they won’t get enough direct sunlight during the winter months (especially when it’s cloudy). Will probably need to rethink the location so I can climb up and charge them at least once a year.

Sorry, I just realized that I may have misled you. I read you post as “I am looking to install a V2 camera outside” So I thought you meant V2 as in V2 Wyze Cam and not a Wtze Cam Outdoor V2. The Wyze Cam V2 and Wyze Cam Outdoor V2 are entirely two different devices. You may be fine with a Solar …
