Hiya, I have 2 Wyze Cam Floodlights I’m keen to install in Australia, but am not sure if I can connect directly to our mains (240V AC, 50Hz). An electrician I was talking to thought it would destroy equipment designed for USA standards, but I’ve seen mentions of others doing it online. Any advice or thoughts would be greatly appreciated. ---

The specs show 120 volt only. Some power supplies can handle a higher voltage, but I would not risk it. Can your electrician locate a small 240-`120 transformer? I would think they are pretty common. Or you can check with Wyze. But I think they would err on the safe side and say no. ---

Hi. I’ve setup a Wyze floodlight and cam in Perth with a second v3 cam attached, no voltage step down, and it’s running well for a few months now. ---

The audio on one of them is not recording properly, I don’t know if that has to do with the voltage or something else though. The rest is working fine. Stopped quite a few attempted burglaries on the car with the automatic alarm when it spots a person, and one conviction for the police from the recordings where someone tried unsuccessfully to get a bike, reported to police and they recognised the person.
