C460 vs C465

I upgraded from the C425 to the C465 and although I love new 4K functionality Tapo keeps reducing the FOV for these cameras. I didnt think going from 150 degrees to 134 wouldnt be that big of a deal.......it was. Buyer beware.

Can you change batteries on outdoor cameras

Don't buy Tapo cameras with battery. I bought C425, biggest mistake of my life. Tapo battery cameras don't have any way to control bitrate, nor to increase nor to decrease. That being said, although resolution is 2K image is garbage because no matter what you do(and you can't do anything) video is a

Fixed Tapo camera network issues with Asus router (Asus RT-AX86S + Tapo C101)

Ando entrando al mundo de Tapo y una C425 me estaba dando mucha lata. Tuve que hacer algo similar con el router Asus que tengo. Deshabilitar "Smart connect", 802.11ax, la banda de 6Ghz, porque si no, me marcaba que el dispositivo solo se podía controlar de manera local. Esto para los que vayan a com

C425 Sound Activation?

Tapo C425 only supports Motion Detection, Person Detection, Pet Detection, and Vehicle Detection. There is no sound detection. It is not uncommon for some dogs to go nutso when left home alone. A friend of mine had the nicest and quietest dog. But when left alone the dog would start barking incessan

Delay in recording trigger C425

I have a pretty big mixbag of tapos (I've got rid of all but one Eufy, because tapo don't make a 4g camera, and I can't throw wifi to the end of my drive which is 1.5km from my house) I'm on 26 acres with a small lodge (8 buildings) so I have a lot of ground to cover. Weirdly I'm most impressed with

Unable to reset TAPO C425

No worries! Yeah exact same camera the TAPO C425 unit only, no solar panel. The new one has given me issues but completely seperate ones unfortunately, a firmware update affected the sound but Support managed to fix that with a follow up update. I also had an incident where it just went off one day

Best simple indoor camera for homekit

I bought three C425 cameras. Two of them performed a firmware update on day 1, which bricked both cameras. I spent weeks with Tapo support trying to get the unit to boot, before they admitted that the cameras were bricked by the firmware update and should be replaced. They got as far as obtaining cr

Tapo cameras are such a disappointment.

I finally decided to switch all my tapo cams to eufy. Literally solved all my camera issues. The cameras are also capturing way more information than before. I had a Tapo C425 cam left over and set it up in my basement, literally right next to my mesh node, and it still randomly disconnects at times

Don't buy Arlo!!!

I was ready to replace my 4 camera Arlo Pro 2 system after they "upgraded" my app with the new dashboard. I was afraid my grandfathered 7-day free storage would soon be coming to an end. I hate subscriptions almost as much as paying for shipping. Started evaluating Blink 2K+ and ran into the "camera
