Solar Power for Wyze Cam

It just won't work reliably. I've been playing with solar since the first Wyze cam was introduced. Solar panels work great on battery cams. Hardwired cameras have a MUCH larger power appetite so you need batteries in the system and a panel big enough to both power the camera and charge the batteries

Done with cheap cameras

I use Wyze OG. They work for my 65g and 40g, so a 29 should be no problem. Easy to place with a sticky wall mount that I got from amazon. Also highly recommend you get an SD card to go with it so you can record timelapses without having to pay for a subscription.

This is getting ridiculous

Thank you for YOUR service as well! Go Navy🙂⚓️The similarities of our NFH situations is kind of sad really. Proves how the world is full of jerks. It would take 10 pages to tell my whole story. I have several times started to post my own Reddit NFH comment post, but have backed out because there’s ju

Is it possible to stop your neighbor from targeting you or is it inevitable?

When it pertains to the noise complaints I recommend buying a cheap security camera with microSD card and continuous recording available (I recommend the Wyze Cam OG). You get them on Temu through Wyze's store refurbished for way less than retail. Set it up in the room you spend the most time in and

Wyze Cam Plus is a joke, constant “failed to load” errors

I have - currently - 11 Wyze cameras up and running. Yes, I pay for CamPlus and have few issues. I do have a few SD cards in cameras, but that’s mainly to record Timelapse when the opportunity is ripe. Anything from first v2s (now over 7 years old) to OGs (about 18 months old).

Even a cheap one will do. If you want recommendations, wyze OG cam is like $20 and the cheap Wyze doorbell is like $30 to $40 Stick a $5 SD card in each one for continuous recording. $50 or so and you're ready for lights...camera....crash out!

3D Printing overnight

Mine are unattended 99% of the time but I have a wyze cam OG with SD card on each printer so I can monitor and cancel prints if I need to or re watch a failure and learn from it. They also do ok timelapses. Cheap, too.

Prints keeps failing

Wyze cam og with SD card. It's cheap and easy to seek back to where the failure happened. I started doing this, learned a lot about what does or doesn't work and how to prepare for it in the future. My cameras just sit there on all the time recording so I never miss anything. Decent timelapses, too.

Wyze cams no longer recording events to SD cards

I just bought 2 new OGs and added them to my existing 2 cameras. I’ve upgraded everything and now I’ve lost the ability to record video!?! Not much of an upgrade :( Definitely not going to recommend people buy Wyze cameras anymore.

Why did Wyze add the 5 minute cool down to their new cam 4 if you don’t pay for cam plus. So disappointed. Whole reason I went with Wyze in the 1st place was good functionality without having to pay a monthly fee. Guess I have to stop recommending Wyze.

1 year later, you're still wrong. My Wyze Cam OG will record continuously to a microSD and/or record just events with ZERO cooldown. I have a new Wyze Cam v4, and it DOES have a 5 minute cooldown for events when recording to microSD. The Cameras are NOT the same in that aspect. v1, v2, v3 may also h
