Kasa 2K+ Outdoor Wired Security Camera - Person/Motion Detection, 24/7 Recording, 2-Way Audio, Siren, Starlight Color Night Vision, Subscription-Free Local Storage or Optional Cloud, KC420WS

Have two of these and they have been great. Especially for price. Video quality is pretty clear also. App works well I feel and easy to setup. Peace and mind being able to check house while at work. Also get notifications from app when motion is detected. Works well at detecting people.

These cameras are great. I used blink brand cameras before these and Kasa is far superior, and at a reasonable price. I like them so much I actually have 4 at home. They have great video quality and I love the 24/7 recording. If you watch in live time the delay is less than 0.5 seconds and the video is mostly smooth, not buffering all the time like other brands. They are also built better and feel solid. My old blink cameras were cheap and "plastic feeling". The app is easy to use and keep track of the cameras. You can upgrade the app and features for $100/yr for up to 10 cameras. You are able to turn on and off the cameras entirely if you want, or you can disable alerts if you chose. These work off USB cords so batteries aren't an issue; however, you do need to get them to an outlet so keep that in mind. I installed mine outside and fished the wire though the inside of the wall to an outlet. I am particular and don't like the messy sight of wires... I bought a 256gb SD card for each of my cameras and that is more than sufficient. UPDATE: Cameras captured 2 guys looking in car windows and breaking one of them on my street. (Luckily my car wasn't targeted). Police asked if they could see the video and it was right there in my app. Super easy.

I have a slew of the Kasa smart outlets and they’re excellent. Cheap and just work. I watched these cameras for a long time before trying a couple. I’m glad I did. I got them on a good sale, around 42$ each. My buddy who is a professional security camera installer is blown away at their picture for a camera at 1/4 of his pro cam cost. Picture quality: The night vision is incredible. That’s usually where the picture quality lacks. Picture is crisp and clean when night vision is on. What is even more impressive is the cameras ability to use what light it can pickup at night and keep color and clarity. I have a streetlight that is in my neighbors yard and I don’t use night vision on 2 of my cameras because it can use the available light very well. I will say, I run these on 1080 as I don’t see any real difference at 2k. But just remember, it depends on the screen you’re viewing it on. For me, 1080 is plenty. Spot light: It’s pretty good. Not “impressive” but impressive for something that is running on 5V USB. Siren: Yup, it makes noise. You can even set it to initiate all sirens on your network at once. Siren and Alert settings. YES you can turn both off when motion is sensed. I don’t know what people are doing where they can’t turn that off. Motion sensing: Pretty slick, you can set a irregular squares to areas of interest you want notifications. For example. One cam captures the street, but I only want my walkway. So I set that section to only alert if movement is noticed in that area. Even nicer, you can set up to 4 different sections. Noise sensing/notification: Far too sensitive even on the lowest setting. A good gust of wind will set it off. This is nitpicking, but wanted to address it. All my noise sensing is turned off. 2 way communication. It’s OK. Not great. You can hear the people through the camera OK, but the speaker to them is not that great, but again. 42-50$ it’s very good. I will say, it’s possible that when you’re talking through the camera you mouth is far away from the mic on your phone because you’re also watching the video feed. Install is straight forward. Mount anywhere 110v is within the 10’ reach of the cord. I bought a 50’ USB extension cable to power one of these cameras where 110v is not nearby and it’s flawless. Can probably power sufficiently with even longer USB extension. Micro SD card storage: It’s ridiculous that TP-Link hasn’t accurately answered this question. At 1080, the 24/7 recording is approx 12gb a day. So a 256gb card formats at 219gb. Which translates to 18 days of 24/7 recording. The takeaway, at 1080 it takes 12gb a day. Different picture quality will increase or decrease the storage requirement. Saving from SD card. Again. I don’t know where the issue is. When a notification is received the on screen prompts shows you if it was a person or movement. Touch one off them and the software jumps to that event and starts playing. On the screen you’re watching there’s a “RED RECORD BUTTON” touch that, and it starts to record that selection of video to your phone. You can record anything, not just an event. But the event notification just helps locate the times something happens. Easy. No problem. Stop whining! For those that can’t figure that out, if you need to pull the SD card for insurance or police, you have a legit reason! You won’t be pulling the card daily. Ending thoughts. If you’re interesting in an inexpensive but high quality camera, look no further.

I like the Kasa brand, its good quality. Installing was easy and getting it connected to my home cam app was as well. Only issue is rain is triggering it to record and send alert. I dont know how to adjust and make it not do that.

We loved this! So easy to install, good image quality, good range and had no problem to connect it or install it. This is my second Kasa cam. We got one for indoors in order to take care of the dog while at work. Since it was so easy and good quality we decided to get another one. Besides this one outdoors we have already ordered another third one and a doorbell. I’ll let you guys know how that goes!

I love these cameras! We have 5 cameras total 2 outside and 3 inside. The outdoor camera is clear and perfect and so are the indoor ones as well. And the subscription is totally optional, I pay for mine just so I can save the videos but if u put an sd card in it you dont have to do any of that.

Does a great job and easy to install.

I've got a few older Kasa cameras at home. This one is such an upgrade to the others! Very good quality at night and keeps it in colour! Perfect for keeping an eye on my front yard around the clock.

Fácil de instalar, cumple su función. Fácil manejar desde la app

Easy setup and operates very well

Already have KC200 outdoor camera which is good but without all the features of this new model. (No built in SIM facility on KC200) I have switched off the LED lights and IR at the moment as the video is clear enough without them and it does not stand out at night. That said, they are both good. I have spot lights that detect a person on the drive and they provide more than sufficient lighting. The video is recording in colour with just a weak street light and the sensitivity is correctly identifying a person. I have a128gb micro sim which is more than adequate for several days recordings. I have taken a snap shot of 4.15am today and it is good and in clout. When lights come on it’s outstanding. Came with a USA plug power adaptor. (See photo)The cable is USB ended and fits any suitable adaptor or usb socket. I highly recommend this product but get your own power adaptor.

Easy and clear
