ieGeek 360° Wireless Solar Security Camera Outdoor, 15000mAh Rechargeable Battery CCTV Camera with Solar Panel, 1080P Wifi Wireless PTZ Camera, PIR Motion Detection, Voice Intercom,Phone/Tablet Access

It arrived well-packaged and was very easy to install and connect to my Wi-Fi. All the fixings I needed were in the box.

Really waterproof (we live in Scotland!), it is battery powered with a long life and easily rechargeable with USB or solar panel.

Day vision is HD, clear and fault free, night vision is clear and you can easily identify faces.

Very useful functions: Motion sensor with adjustment that produces 2 still shots and a video (in HD if you’ve selected this) and I always get the target on at least one of these, alarm, intercom is loud enough and great PTZ functionality.

Overall, a great investment at a good price!

I have previously bought a fixed battery camera for my back garden but wanted one for my front camera that could pan in on certain areas. The iegeek camera arrived next day and as I previously had CloudEdge app for my previous camera it literally took 5 minutes to add the new camera to my phone and iPad and everything was up and running.
The important thing is to insert the micro SD card before you power up the camera and then press the button to format it when prompted, after the camera has been paired.
The moving camera lens is great and easily controlled from my phone/pad and now I can view all of my garden and take videos and photos which are automatically stored on the SD card. The photos are also downloaded onto my mobile device so then it it easy to view them by other media sources. Any footage you do not want is easily deleted through the CloudEdge app.
Yes this is a great security camera that gives peace of mind but I also bought it to view the wildlife in my garden and I couldn’t be more happier with the product. The images are great especially hd and the night vision is really clear.
The instruction book covers most of what you need to get started. The one negative is I would have preferred more step by step instructions and more detail about the added extras the camera is capable off.

Initial set up was frustrating (but possibly because I’m not a geek!) Once I had managed to connect camera to my wireless network the basic operation was quite straight forward.

HOWEVER trying to follow the directions from the enclosed manual was very confusing as the manual glossed over basic functionality e.g, no direction as to reducing Audio / Motion Sensitivity , no guidance as to how to insert SD card, no guidance as to how to Search Video Recordings (I’m still not sure whether I should activate ‘Planned’ Recordings to SD card??) – indeed all the screen shots used in the manual were of the more upgraded CamHipro App – so not much use in setting up the basic CamHi App!
Also not sure how I install the upgraded the CamHipro App now that I currently have the camera operating using the basic CamHi App!!!

Audio and Motion Alarms far too ‘sensitive’… I get loads of alarm notifications just from bird song, wind/rain or slight movement of shrub foliage!.. Additionally there is no guidance as to how to delete all these ‘false’ alarm notifications +40 a day!!! (I have been doing this by ‘formatting the SD card each day as I can’t find any other way of doing this???)

On the plus side the daylight picture quality is very good and the fact you can change the angle of view from your smartphone app is excellent. The motion recording at night is OK but not great (don’t even consider using colour night vision as picture is so pixelated as to render it useless)

Overall this is a good quality security camera at this price point (59.00) but it has limitations, the Audio and Motion Sensitivity means you get loads of unwanted alarm notifications and the manual as supplied is not helpful in explaining the basic CamHi App functionality.

Update:
Having contacted iGeek Customer Service I have since changed to using the CamHipro App. This is certainly an improvement over the basic CamHi App and was relatively easy to switch – just needing to input the camera’s UID code into the new APP. The advantage being you can dial down the Video Motion Sensitivity.

HOWEVER even taking it down to around 5% I still get lots of false alarm notifications from rustling leaves / branches from nearby shrubs and rain showers. At night it’s moths that trigger the Alarm notification! After further contact with Cheryl at iGeek Customer Service I have now been informed that I need a camera with ‘Smart Humanoid Detection’ to significantly reduce false alarm notification – which this camera does not have….

On the plus side Igeek have agreed to refund my purchase price of this camera in compensation for all the frustration I have experienced with this camera!

Refund has now been processed so have now uprated item to 4 Stars at Igeeks request…. but future buyers still need to be aware of this items issues.

This camera is so good for the price and you really need to get the solar panel and memory card if you want to have it running all the time.

It’s so good at picking up movement at night. You can talk into to which is a great feature if you don’t want to buy a camera doorbell. You can set up notifications and as soon as someone is near sends a message. This can of course be useful if you have an Apple Watch as it will tell you immediately. If your not at home you can see what is happening live and then talk through the camera. It rotates and you can move it as you want.

If you don’t want to wire your camera then definitely get this as I can’t fault it.

Finally a camera that says wireless and actually is wireless, there are many on amazon that say that but aren’t which i found out after ordering one (then returning).
Installation and setup is super easy, and the camera is amazing, I particularly love it’s wide range of motion. It was a bit out of my price range, I planned to spend less, but couldn’t find wireless with pan and tilt at 50 so grabbed this one at flash sale.
The features it don’t have and I wish it had – transerring screen to tv/pc would be nice, and also setting up a recording schedule, I understand recording is human motion activated only. These features were not essential for me so not deal breakers but a reason I gave 4 not 5 stars.

I have eight older ieGeek cameras all running on the Windows HiP2P software and this one is superior in most respects. It still gets 5 stars from me for its functionality but, to get the things I don’t like out of the way, it is mainly white, big and plasticky. It’s attractive enough but I live in the countryside with no neighbours and I don’t want my cameras to be obvious, I have warning notices prominently displayed to deter baddies; the older black (metal) ones are much more discrete and are much more robust. I’d rather keep trespassers guessing where the cameras are so they can’t dodge out of sight or whack them off their mount and this model is, in my opinion, best suited to a town environment where being visible could be an advantage. But in my deeply rural setting it’s a disadvantage and I’ll install them in areas well inside my boundaries so baddies come across them after they have passed a few “invisible” ones and warning signs they couldn’t miss. My much smaller black metal cameras are very hard to spot, especially at night, unless you know where they are. This one jumps out yelling “I’m here”, especially as it’s white.

But this is in my situation and I appreciate most people will likely prefer the deterrent of a security camera being obvious so my rating reflects that.

Very easy to physically mount and set up with the HiP2P software if you are familiar with it (use the latest version!) although the terminologies take getting used to and some settings are unintuitive and hidden, most importantly the “quality” setting which is on “minimum” by default — it makes a huge difference. The wi-fi range is excellent, this camera works perfectly in a location I previously struggled with using one of the older ones. The image quality looks better to me although it is seemingly the same resolution.

Where this camera really scores for me is the pan/tilt/zoom. Forget the zoom, it’s digital, not optical, so would lose definition if used (it doesn’t seem to work anyway on the HiP2P software) but the pan and tilt are excellent. It’s billed as 360 but in practice, unless it can see round corners, it’s 180 if it’s mounted on a flat wall, still perfectly adequate. I haven’t tried the auto-tracking yet but intend to thoroughly check this out in time as automatically covering a wide area with a single camera will be very useful to me.

The night vision is very good too, again seemingly much better than the older models. I won’t be using the colour option for the same reasons as wanting my cameras to be unnoticeable.

We get some ferocious weather here (in France) so I’ll have to wait and see how this lightweight plastic camera fares. Hopefully it will be just fine, the older but metal models have stood up well.

This is a relatively inexpensive camera so I’ve taken that into consideration. It is remarkable value for money and I can’t fault its functionality.

The main thing is, it works very well and I’m very pleased with it, so much so I will buy a couple more for areas a fixed camera couldn’t cover adequately. I have areas that have power from 3 different houses and it’s impractical to run network cable and impossible to use CPL, so the wi-fi range is a significant plus.

Optional information one thing I have disliked about ieGeek cameras is their inability to record in e.g. AVI format that can be shared and viewed with normal software, instead using a proprietary 264 format that nothing except the HiP2P application reads. You CAN convert from this rubbish to a useable format using the mobile app but even their customer service (very good by the way) couldn’t find a way round this on a Windows PC. Well, there is a way! You can’t from the files stored on an SD card but you can save video as AVI if you save direct to a hard drive in a PC (the SD card still works). The problem is of course, the computer has to be on to do this and gobbles up disk space but if it matters (and it does to me) it is possible. I wish I’d known this before because with (now) 9 cameras each with a 128Gb SD card at 22 or so each, that’s 200 I could have saved, enough to buy 10Tb of dedicated external drives. Also, saved to my computer the recordings are safe and readily available rather than going through the slow and clunky HiP2P application.

We decided to fit some wireless cameras around our home and garage, and I did a bit of research being buying the ieGeek products. All I can say is that I am not disappointed. The packaging of the product is of an extremely high quality, the fixings supplied are excellent, and the products are incredibly well made and excellent value for money.
Downloading the app was simple, and the only thing to remember is to switch of your 5G wireless on your router when pairing. It is simple to pair up, and then turn your 5G back on. Image quality is excellent, and all round I’m a pretty happy customer. Highly recommend to any one wanting extra piece of mind when it comes to home security.

This is my third camera from this company in my home .This Camera works excellent, it is so sensitive as well.
It creates a good image resolution of the picture, but not the best. I would like to have a chance to see a REG number plate on my 15 meters parked car.
Battery lasts for 2-3 months – depends how often you are turning it.
Overall – good email support, reasonable costs of maintenance, but do not expect Airport/Police quality.

Great product. The picture quality is great in both daylight and dark. Can move the camera around as well as setting the sensitivity for motion detection (still playing about with this as we have a puppy). Only down side is that you can’t zoom in (not a big issue for us as we can see the whole garden but something that some may need to consider). Overall great camera!

I bought this security camera based on the information on the site and the strong reviews. We have been experiencing a number of driveway/garage break-ins recently and I wanted something that might dissuade people but also capture any activity on my property. The set up is extremely straight forward…..charge the battery overnight…..follow the instructions and the camera talks you through what to do! I have set it high up on the front wall of my house next to a window where I can access the battery charging point when required. The camera has four thumb screws that hold it onto the mounting plate so you need to fit is somewhere where no-one can access it easily. The picture quality is excellent. I’ve set mine to HD. The night vision is pretty good even without a security light coming on. It’s good to be able to adjust the angle of the lens from your phone. The battery seems to be holding up well considering I have been trying numerous different settings on the App and playing around with the viewing angle. The App does take a little time to get used to and its worth playing around with different settings to see what suits your situation. All in all I think this is a good solid camera that does what it should.

After an initial hiccup with the camera showing an error message in installation customer service were very helpful in letting us know the issue (more to do with our router than the camera itself) we are now up and running.
East to set up, greet motion detection and the clarity of the picture is great-direct to your phone. Brilliant.
We hope we won’t have a genuine need for the CCTV but feel confident with this camera we’ll be well protected.
Just a note be careful when other cameras say they’re ‘wireless’ it often means it connects wirelessly to your phone not that the camera is wireless itself so many need outdoor power sockets or a way of plugging it indoors whilst the unit is outdoors. We had to return one like that. Thus one is FULLY wireless abs needs no power to it as it’s run on batteries. We will be using the solar panel you can get to go with it to keep it powered up but you can just use normal batteries.

This is a nice and well thought out security camera with a really useful spec. It’s got some serious weight to it and seems very well built for the price. I bought mine to use as security for my garden shed (which has an extensive tool collection), giving me notifications on my mobile phone when someone gets anywhere near it. It’s early days but so far it’s working very well for this with the occasional notification for the odd cat strolling by (usually ours..)! I very much like that you can speak to people remotely via the camera – not something I need right now but cool nonetheless.

It took me just over 10 minutes to set the device up and about 1/2 hr to get it mounted on an external wall (it could be installed quicker but I’m slow!). I like that there are no cables to worry about once it’s been charged. Instructions are pretty straightforward and I reckon most people will be fine with them.

You’ll need to get your own Micro SD Card – they don’t cost much and considering how reasonable the price of the camera is, buying this didn’t bother me. I got a SanDisk Ultra 64 GB off Amazon for 9.99 – more than enough space for my needs.

Still getting used to it and I’m interested to see how it performs over the long term but going on the quality of the device and the pictures I’ve seen so far, I reckon it’s going to do well. Nice bit of kit.

I bought this as an upgrade to my igeek security camera It’s very robust and was so easy to install as wireless The picture quality is superb dar or night but now with the added feature of being able to move it by remote control for total surveillance of any area So with that and motion detection that isn’t set off by cats etc along with being able to communicate with anyone seen on camera through the microphone is to me total security for most people’s needs Great quality and especially for the money

I needed a camera that is battery powered due to no mains electricity where we needed coverage. I also wanted to view and interact with the camera from my phone so it needed to be WiFi enabled. I have already got a mains powered iegeek camera so knew the quality would be good. This camera ticks all the boxes. I have had this camera for a couple of weeks and the picture quality is great, both day and night vision. The app is good and the great part about this camera is the fact you can move it around using the app. Due to the lens being so wide angled which is great, I rarely have to ‘look around’ but it is a great feature being able to if required. The battery life seems great so far and despite only having 50% WiFi strength this has not affected its interoperability. The only thing I would like to see added is a zoom function but as I say the PTZ functionality is great. If you’re looking for a camera that is battery powered, WiFi only and has a good, user friendly app I can definitely recommend this camera, you will not be disappointed.

I have had the camera approximately 6 weeks now and I must say I’m really impressed given the price point of this PTZ camera.

Setup took 10 minutes and the WiFi connection is stable.

The capture quality is excellent (can be changed from SD to HD in the app) in both day and night mode.

The camera can be controlled easily through the CloudEdge app. Rotating almost 360 degrees. Mine is mounted with a corner brackets to give my complete coverage along 2 sides of the house. As it’s also close to my front door I can communicate with visitors via the 2 way audio built in.

PIR detection is good. You just need to adjust the sensitivity via the app in relation to where the camera is installed. I have a gazebo which constantly blows in the wind I was worried this may constantly set it off but remarkably it only seems to detect actual people or the odd animal because it has a human motion only setting you can turn on or off.

Battery is still at 86% after 6 weeks. Average daily triggers is 5. Obviously if you have it in a higher traffic area it won’t last quite as long

This is the second ieGeek security camera I have bought. The first one was a previous model which was excellent. Installation process was very simple and requires one time integration with smartphone app I needed another camera so went for this upgraded model which is even better. Really simple to install and connect to my mobile with the app included. Operating the camera movement and zoom feature is easy and works a treat. The picture, including the night vision quality is excellent. The audio quality is very good and can be heard clearly outside so you can speak and listen to anyone at the front door without opening it. Real time alerts, viewing and conversations can be carried out from anywhere via the included phone app.

This is a well-made camera with total wireless connection in terms of power and WiFi connection, it is exactly what I need. This means that you can be put almost anywhere around a house proving the location is covered by WiFi signal.
The motor of the camera runs smoothly and quietly. The rotation functions are convenience to monitor a wider area.
The USB charging pot is underneath the base of the camera, it can be easily charged when it is mounted. Or you can take the camera off the metal base bracket by unscrew the four bolts. Its power switch reset button and SD card slot are at the bottom of the camera. I put a 128GB one and it works fine.
The base plate of the camera can be installed by four screws into wall. The supplied screws are 3mmX25mm, you may want to use longer ones to get extra security.
The 4dBi Dual Antennas is a good design and the response time is much shorter than some of battery-operated cameras.
CloudEdge is the APP used to control the camera. As it has been installed on my phone already to mange other ieGeek cameras, I only need to add a new devise and the operation is straightforward. The picture and video of the HD option is very good. The sound is clear very clear.
In summary, a very well-made camera with all the functions required for an outdoor wireless a PTZ camera.

I really like this PZT camera (note, the zoom is a digital zoom only) from IeGeek. I have others from them but this is my favourite. The ability to fine tune or move the position of the camera is a bonus.

It has a strong metal mounting bracket with 4 thumb screws and is secured by 4 screws into the wall. (I have used 3m double sided tape for mine and it is holding up well)

There is a small delay between pressing the controls on the app and the camera moving but nothing serious.

This camera has a much stronger WiFi connection than older models. (this camera has a signal strength of 97% whilst my older camera that is closer to my router is only 80%)

The upgraded battery also helps with an extended run time between charges but I would recommend the solar panel addition so that you will rarely have to worry about bringing it inside to charge.

This is from a company I have purchased from before. They have good communication if you need additional help and I would highly recommend.

Having been extremely pleased with the smaller static ieGeek outdoor security camera for monitoring outdoor buildings with animals, I looked to ieGeek again for a larger option to be used a security camera as part of a house renovation project. I purchased the ieGeek 360 Wireless Outdoor PTZ Security Camera, 15000mAh Rechargeable Battery CCTV Camera with Pan 355 Tilt 120, 1080P Wifi Home IP Camera, PIR Motion Detection, 2-Way Audio, Cloud&SD Card Storage

The item arrived well packaged as you would expect from ieGeek which contained the main camera, a usb lead, backplate wall mount, plugs and screw, easy turn fixing screws for the camera to be connected to the wall plate and the manual.

Setup is via the app and already having the app, it was a case of scanning the product QR code so that it could be connected to the network. Once it recognises the QR code it’s really fast to setup but the sequence of turning on and reset button took a few attempts to get going.

Its WiFi connection is only 2.4Ghz which although not the highest connection speed provides better range of connectivity. This was much better when connecting outside since there is a great deal of dense and obstructive material to get through and it had no impact of the reaction speed and connectivity performance, more than happy with this.

The app includes animated inline help which is extremely useful.

For the purposes of testing, I fixed the unit high on my external blockwork (as per picture). This was an extremely useful position and will go back in exactly the same when the house is finished.

This product requires a USB power connection to charge the battery initially. I left this plugged in overnight and it was completely charge by the morning (the instructions suggest 10 hours to fully charge). If not using a solar panel, it needs to be installed high enough to be out of vandalism reach but easy enough to access in order to periodically plug in USB lead for charging. Since this is more of a semi-permanent fixing, it’s probably best to install near a window in order to get a suitable lead out to it without needing to climb ladders each time. If not, the unit is easily removed using the four easy-turn fixings to take the entire unit down for charging. The backplate itself was very quick and easy to secure to the wall. I use a solar panel for my smaller camera which is great using the robust and ‘free’ solar panel from ieGeek (superb, compact and free).

General SD mode is very good but HD mode is better (as you would expect) although has more battery drain. I haven’t been using the camera long enough to determine this exactly.

The night vision is superb as is the triggering which can be set up for defined intervals as required.

The remote movement functionality is very reactivate and precise and the movement is extremely quiet.

The speaker and microphone are also very useful and can be heard at a decent range from the house if need be.

I haven’t used the product long enough to comment on battery life but if it’s supposed to be an improvement on the smaller model, then I am very confident that I won’t be charging up too often.

I have recorded video for playback on both SD and Cloud service which works extremely well. The only comment I have on the cloud service is that you have to dig to find more information on costing and would be better to include such information in an FAQ.

I’m otherwise extremely happy with this product and will be purchasing another for the front of my house.

This is a top notch cctv camera. Extremely easy to install and very easy to use. The picture quality and sound are brilliant. The pan and tilt function is also very good and the night vision excellent.motion detection saves to your smart phone. Really good piece of kit. The price of the camera is very reasonable. Overall we would rate this camera 10 out of 10 and we would highly recommend to anyone wanting to protect their home.

I purchased two of these cameras , one for the front and one for the rear of my house, reviews looked good for these and they were right !
Comes well packaged , with the camera and a network cable , plus screws and rawl plugs for fitting , there is a mini CD behind the foam packing which has a manual an other useful info and programs on it.
First connect the camera to your router with the cable and power on. I downloaded both apps Camhi and camhi pro , I preferred the camhi pro app , so kept that one.
Set up really easy, remember to change the password for the camera so only you can access it
Once set up , disconnect the cable and it will connect via wifi
Like others I only needed the power cable through the wall , so a 10mm hole was drilled and I fitted a couple of waterproof boxes from Wickes , to store the unused wires outside on the wall ( wife didn’t even notice the boxes there).
Then it was a case of adjusting the camera to get the best position , a bit fiddly when on a ladder , but spend time doing it so your happy , the front ca,era was a bit difficult , as due to the angle i needed the aerial base hit the body , but I managed to get there in the end. Look good on the wall and feel sturdy.
Oh I forgot you will need a micro sd card to put in them , I bought 2 x 64GB cards
When set up take a look at the lovely clear picture on your phone (remember to set to HD in the app for best results). Picture very clear , two way communication if needed and so far I have good reception , even though my router is over the other side of the house the wifi works fine with the camera.
I set up email alerts but have turned it off as others have said it is a bit sensitive and in an hour I got 45 emails !!
So far very happy with the camera.
I have messed around with the PC programme (HiP2P) to adjust /view them but to be fair the app does most of it anyhow
Last thing , rear camera is mounted under the eaves which is great , front camera couldn’t be and is just on a wall , it does suffer a bit from rain getting on the lens , but thats no fault of the camera , try and fit them with something above if possible.
Think I may get one more for the side of my house !!
