Solar Panel

I highly recommend, and absolutely love these ieGeek Security Cameras! Super easy setup, installation, and operation. Just make sure you have a strong wi-fi signal at the location where you plan on installing your cameras. I had to buy a $30 wi-fi extender for one of the cameras I installed on my garage that was just a little out of range. Now I have a whole home security system with no monthly fees. They do offer cloud storage if you prefer to pay a monthly fee, but these cameras take up to 128gb micro SD cards to store the video clips, which is all the storage you need. I have 32gb in mine and I find this to be adequate for my needs. This ZS-GX1S (With Panel) is the latest cam I've added to my arsenal and I am not disappointed. I can pan and tilt for pinpoint accurate adjustments right from the comfort of my couch! 2K image quality is awesome. Night vision is nice and clear, and the lights are super bright. You can adjust the sensitivity of the motion detection, the speaker volume, light brightness, and the length of the video recordings. They all have two-way talk, and also a siren you can sound at will, or set to go off, or not, when the camera is triggered. Everything is done through their app right in the convenience of the palm of your hands. I truly can't find a bad thing to say about these cameras, or this company for that matter! Which brings me to my next point, ieGeek's stellar Customer Support! These people genuinely care! When I first had my system up and running, I was having playback issues trying to watch some of my captured videos. I reached out to them and they were really helpful and really concerned that they help resolve my issues. I ended up fixing it pretty easily myself with the wi-fi extender, but they were with me every step of the way. I really appreciated that! So if you are on the fence as I was, let me save you some research time. Purchase these bad boys! You will not regret it. I didn't, I absolutely love these things! For my first purchase, I bought 2 Floodlight Cams (ZS-GX5S), and 2 of their Smart Video Doorbells. After I found how great they all were, I went back for seconds and got 2 Spotlight Cams (ZS-GX3S). Now, for my third, and hopefully final purchase, I bought this one for the area of my property that's not covered by the rest of my cameras, and with it's pan and tilt capability, it gives our family an enhanced sense of confidence and security! Thank you ieGeek!

One of the features that I like about this camera is that it runs on a battery and does not need power. It can be charged by the included solar panel, or it can be plugged into a USB charger using a standard USB cable. I found that it does not need to be charged very frequently. Battery usage depends on the amount of motion that is detected and the length of video that is taken. This lets me setup a camera on my property as long as I have a wifi signal available. I use a mesh network with multiple access points so I have good coverage over a wide area outdoors on my property. Not having to run electric power to this camera is a definite plus!This camera has both nighttime infrared and visible lights. It also has a siren / alarm feature. You can add a microSD chip into the camera which will allow it to record video and pictures based upon motion detection.Setup is easy using the CloudEdge app on your phone. Using the app on your phone you can configure the motion detection and video recording. The are three options for nighttime: Intelligent Vision (which turns on the warm lights for full color at night when motion is detected), Full color night vision (which turns on warm lights when you view the camera at night), and Black and white night vision (which only uses the infrared lights).For alarm management you can set the motion detection sensitivity and the amount of video to record when motion is detected. You can setup a time period when alarms are active. You can also specify the visual area that is the alarm area. Motion detected only in this area will trigger the alarm. Alarms can be silent (video and picture only recorded), or you can setup a audio warning and strobe light alarm (only at night).Instructions are provided in the app on how to connect the camera so that it can be linked to Amazon Alexa. When this is done, it is possible to ask Alexa to "show the *** camera on the TV". Alexa can then show the video from the camera on your Alexa controlled TV. Unfortunately this doesn't always work, sometimes the connection is disabled.The camera has a microphone and can record audio. There is also a speaker so you can activate the speaker and talk using the app. Speaker volume and quality are ok. Quality and volume level are not the best. Picture quality is good for the price, however the zoom is a digital zoom. It is not an optical zoom. If you zoom too much, the picture becomes blurry.Given the price this is a camera that can be put to a lot of different uses. As long as you have wifi and your need is for basic functionality, it can be used as a trail cam, security camera, a monitoring and alarm camera, a door camera, etc. I have used this camera both indoors and outdoors. At this price you can afford to get multiple cameras.The camera comes with a 12 month warranty, and if you fill out a form you can extend the warranty to 24 months. I've been using ieGeek cameras for several years now. Haven't had any problems with any of them. Iegeek has made improvements and has added features to their cameras. For example the siren, warm lights are some of the newer features.I've found ieGeek customer service to be responsive and helpful. For example, a recent upgrade to the app caused a problem. A quick email to customer service let me know that the issue was being fixed and an upgrade was quickly available.

This is another purchase of mine from this company for cameras. This camera rotates 355 degrees and I did not have an outdoor camera that does that. It helps a lot with the view and monitoring. It does come with a solar charger which is a great help. Set it and forget it. Make sure there is plenty of sun. The motion sensor work great for the most part. Very few false detections. I hope the battery also lasts a long time. Based on my previous purchases, the battery can last at least 3 years. It seems like the technology has been improved on this one for quality. Dual antenna makes reception and connectivity way stronger. The packaging was awesome like the previous products. Shipping was very quick. Dont forget, their customer service is amazing! I recommend this product if you need a camera that wants to give you a good level of confidence for security. If they can come up with a doorbell camera as well, it will be great!

ieGeek makes high quality products, I'm always very impressed. My favorite part about this surveillance camera is the sheer size of the solar panel included. You can see in my photo, this is not the little dinky photovoltaic that other manufacturers are throwing in as a cheap value-add. This is a great big panel that is going to actually power a high resolution security appliance!

This Cellular camera does not require a power source or Wifi to record and stream content. Perfect for areas outside of Wifi range or remote locations. In my case, it’s the ultimate backup camera in case the power goes out.Includes 4G SIM card and it’s easy to set up. There is a monthly fee for the data plan. You will need to download the free app, CloudEdge to make it work.Video quality is excellent even in my area with weak cellular signal. Great low light video and you can set it up so the 2 small spot lights go on whenever there’s motion.Unpacking, setup and mounting is easy. You mount the bracket first and then mount the camera to the bracket with the attached thumb screws.

I am a big proponent of home security. It is the best preventive measure you can take to be able to protect your family and your home. I have a few cameras already setup around my house. I wanted to add one more in my home and this one really fit the bill. I love that it can rely on cellular instead of wifi. I will not use it outside of range of my wifi - but rather so that it can use cellular for back up incase the power goes out or the wifi is down. I live in Florida. Think - Hurricane. Also, the picture quality is super sharp and I love that you can remotely rotate the camera back and forth from the app. This camera does it all and I am happy I purchased it!

Happy! Bigger and seems to charge faster than one that came with my other iegeek camera.

These are great little solar panels. They jeep my camera batteries always charged even in cloudy weather. I have (5) of these solsr panels hooked up to my ieGeek cameras. I recommend highly.

Works very well, doesn't need direct sunlight as some say you do need direct light. Saves me charging up my camera time to time.

Installed. Tried contacting tech support. No response. Solar panel did NOT recharge camera with 50% battery power. Trying now to fully charge then reconnect panel.

The solar panels have improved my life by keeping me grounded, not climbing ladders for frequent battery charging. They are worth the cost and installation effort. I highly recommend them.

The solar panel has been keeping my camera charged since installed 2 weeks ago.

I will never need to take my camera down and charge it again. Very happy.

I am happy with the purchase of the solar panel, but FedEx sent me a delivery notice five days before I actually received the order. FedEx has got to do better. This is happening more often.

Easy install and connection. It is performing well and battery is fully charged. I only wish I had all ieGeek camera and solar panels. I purchased and installed 6 CCTV cameras but honestly the ieGeek is just as good. The picture quality is as good as the CCTC cameras. THe big difference of course is the CCTV camers are instant on because they are hard wired and the wifi there is a 5-6 sec delay on seeing an image because they run off wifi and not hard wired. I do have the sd memory cards instead of the cloud. The solar panels are worth the money spent. I will buy more as needed.

The battery does last a long time in the camera, however when I installed a solar panel, the battery remains fully charged all the time removing the necesity of having to take the camera down to charge occassionaly. This little device saves a lot of work and functions really well.

working great

I have brought these before and they work really well, I would recommend them 100%

HAVE ZS-GX3S SECURITY CAMERAS AND FIND THE IE GEEK ZS-GQ5 WILL NOT BE RECOGNIZED BY THE ZS-GX-3S CAMERAS.

Peace of mind,if you are away, you don't need to recharge every few months,
