Luckily, right here on the forum, we have one amphibian standing as the last consistent bastion against confusion and proponent of unambiguously clear messaging.

That is a true Bummer! Would be great to switch out floodlight camera with the new V3 Pro!

Or is it that access into the “Security Camera” market, having been previously inaccessible to the common residential cave dweller, previously utilized only for commercial purposes, the rich and famous, and the underbelly of professional naredowells, drug cartels and the mob, is now being made accessible to the every person which is driving a fundamental redefining of the idea of what “security” means to the individual and how they utilize IP Cams to get that warm fuzzy security feeling inside?
Someone please edit my punctuation as that is the longest run on sentence I have typed since High School English.

I have been very happy that wyze introduced their low cost cameras when they started up and made them available to this residential cave dweller

The best part is that I was not primarily intending to highlight his clear and unambiguous byline. I was just linking to his profile to identify him.

How is this “PRO” with no RSTP support and crippled functionality unless you pay for a subscription?

I am hoping to see additional improvements once the updated UI is revealed upon install.

How many seconds will it take to send a person detected notification to an Echo show?
(my main issue with the cam 3 is that it takes many seconds).
Can you disable the mike (partially solved with tape over the mike on my cam 3).
You don’t need tape for the mic, just go to settings → Advanced Settings → toggle off “Record Sound”

My cam 3 is in the same room as one of my Echo shows (pointed out a window)
I have record sound disabled but I get still get live sound on the show that causes an audio feedback loop.
I need to completely disable sound.
If you’re really serious about it, here’s a video link for manually disconnecting the V3 mic.

The tape eliminated my feedback problem. I also found a video to disconnect the mike but tried the tape first.
I was hoping they made the disable sound option when designing a new camera.
I “solved” my cam 3 WIFI issues by using an old router as a repeater.
If the v3 pro reduces the notification delay it would be a worthwhile upgrade for me.
Had purchased 2 pans and 4 of the V3’s that had issues. Luckily, all were purchased through Amazon and was able to have new ones resent which arrived the next day! Will order a couple of these 2k cameras for our new motorhome when Amazon stocks as well…
The V3 Pro is not shipping the first unit until November 4th.
