- Does it need a subscription?
- The camera is built around cloud storage, and no microSD slot is listed. Expect to pay for a cloud plan to keep recordings; live view usually works without one.
- How long does the battery last?
- Runtime depends on sunlight and how often motion triggers recording. In good sun the panel keeps it topped up; in heavy shade or frequent alerts you will need to recharge the battery by hand.
- Does it work with 5GHz WiFi?
- No. It connects on 2.4GHz WiFi only, which also gives better range through walls. Set up the camera on a 2.4GHz network.
- Can I talk through it?
- Yes. It has a built-in microphone and speaker, so you can listen and speak through the app.
- Is it fully wireless?
- Yes for power: the solar panel and rechargeable battery remove the need for a power cable. You still need WiFi coverage at the camera's spot.
- Does it detect people or just motion?
- It detects motion, not people specifically. Expect alerts from moving branches, pets and cars as well as intruders.
