Definitely had been looking forward to this review! Thank you!

[isaacsanchez]

I think there is much to be desired with the video quality. However this is solid for Tapos first floodlight cam. Great review Hackster!

[lugergold]

Another great review! Tapo seemed to be more friendly with most routers to Eufy alternative. Only minor gripe is no color choices for an outdoor cameras.

Thanks for all of your very helpful and informative reviews on the various types of security cameras. Please do the same on Amcrest and Night Owl cameras. Thanks Ronald

I'm subscribed to this YouTube channel and I greatly enjoy all an each of the camera reviews here, but there's something I would like to share with everyone. I installed in my house 8 Ring Cameras, 3 Eufy, 1 Kuna and 1 Reolink Argus 4 Pro. I can tell you without a doubt that the Ring cameras are superior in clarity, color and reliability compared to all the other ones.
Yes, I know, Ring did not catch up with the advance in technology as all the other brands, and they also charge you an annual fee to make them work properly, which is a bummer. But specially the Ring Floodlight pro has a definition, color, reliability and angle of vision unmatched by all the other brands.
I got really disappointed with the Argus 4 Pro. It is supposed to be 4 K and wide angle but the image resolution, color, and vertical angle of view is not as good as the old 1080p Ring.
This is just my opinion. Thank you!!! 🙏🙏🙏

The design is awkward indeed, also a strange mounting procedure! Love the review like always!

[japerritt]

Great review, thank you so much! Can Alexa turn the lights on and off via command on this floodlight camera while always?recording?

What I have learned in relation to floodlight cameras or just sensor floodlights is this. Thieves are as bold as brass, often drug affected and the idea a floodlight is going to repel or scare off a thief is incorrect. What I have witnessed by thieves at my home is a floodlight help thieves see what to steal or gain access to. I wonder how you replace the light bulbs in this or is it a throw away once blown?

I replaced all my wyze cams with tapo c120 cams a much better camera plus no subscription and notifies me quick but there is one problem everytime an animal walks by it notifies me as a person detected and I only have person detection no pet other then that I like tapo cams so far thanks for showing this

I had this for a couple of months now and noticed that strange mounting issue mentioned in the video. I had to buy a rubber gasket then probably put half a tube of outdoor caulk so it is very sloppy. So far it has been running solid and love it! I wonder maybe someone can suggest a good workaround for this mounting issue as Im not confdent of the Workaround I did.

tapo should add activate the alarm manually to all cameras

[floydrobart]

What pan and tilt security cam do you prefer for outdoors? No subscriptions if possible. I'll use your link. Thank you 👍🏼

Replaced my porch light with this camera a few days ago and found the dusk-dawn floodlight schedule doesn’t work properly. It can turn on at dusk but doesn’t turn off at dawn. Hope you can test this feature to see if it’s a firmware or hardware issue. Maybe the light sensor on my camera is faulty.

[alexleon]

Tapo makes good products. I've been using the c120 outdoor cam for almost 2 years now.

[betom]

What do you recommend
Riolink cx410
Or tapo color pro?

[timborach]

Can you set the Flood Lights Auto On Duration to turn off after 10 secs?

[dederaymondsuherman]

Unfortunately, this product (Tapo C720) is not yet available in Indonesia.

[PNW_Phillip]

Do you have your powerline frequency set to 50Hz? there other cameras have 15, 20 and 30 frames.

[MintyElder]

If these mounted to normal junction boxes then I would replace my WYZE FL V2s as I hate the subscription model.

[rendroidz]

Im slowly moving away from ring to this tapo ecosystem but that flood light video quality kinda makes me want to keep my ring flood light. What y'all think?
