Hi @randyroache welcome to the community!

I was not able to get Sandisk cards working in mine either, the reason why is because they are not made for the use case scenario. These types of cams need endurance rated cards, these cards are built differently to handle the stress of continuous recording cams. I would reccomend getting either the Wyze branded card, or the Samsung Endurance card - link below. I have both of these in different cams and they are working flawlessly. Here is a link for more information about the cards:

> I took what I have gathered from research to speculate on the encoding profiles that are used in the Wyze firmware. This reveals some interesting details. I have further speculated on the bitrate on the audio encoding in order to subtract audio and reveal the underlying video bitrate. I have then taken the Samsung PRO Endurance microSD card in order to derive the life expectancy of the microSD card in a Wyze camera. This gives some clues into the controller on the SD card as TLC is generally …

Here is the card I have been using with no issues:

Wyze does not officially support any card over 32GB - however i have had no issues with the 128…so far 🙃
