1. How long is the battery life of Solocam S340?
3 Months*. *Based on 300 seconds of recording time per day. Actual battery life depends on several factors such as the number of times motion is detected, event recording duration, and environmental temperatures.
2. Why doesn’t my SoloCam S340 battery stay at 100%?
Power collected by the solar panel depends on the weather and available sunlight. If little energy is collected in a day, the battery level may go down. It can run for up to 3 months on battery and it will be charged once the weather is sunny.
3. Does SoloCam S340 support local AI?
Human Detection and Vehicle Detection run natively on the local AI. When connected to HomeBase 3, the added power allows Human Detection to be upgraded to Human Recognition.
4. Does SoloCam S340 support 24×7 recording?
No. Battery cameras aren’t currently capable of 24/7 recording, even if connected to HomeBase 3.
5. Which HomeBase S380 features are SoloCam S340 compatible with?
When connected to HomeBase S380, SoloCam S340 will be able to utilize the storage capacity of HomeBase S380 and the AI will be enhanced with BionicMind, enabling familiar faces, human recognition, vehicle detection, and pet detection.

First photo is the Eufy , second is a ring camera. Look at the difference. So much clearer. My garden is 100 ft. I can now see when the hedgehog is in the garden and not let my dog out . Best camera I’ve purchased !!
Really impressed with this camera. I mounted the solar panel away from the camera as camera was on an east facing wall. Length of extension was just enough. Looking on the Eufy website they don’t do a longer one which is unfortunate as I’m sure some people would want this.
Great picture, no subscription and tracking of people or vehicles is great.
Pity they don’t sell it in black as well, as white against my wall sticks out like a sore thumb.
A bit more expensive than other options but it was simple to set up and install via the phone app and a super quality picture both day and night. I bought it after reading a review of products in The Telegraph (Jan-2024) where it was the outstanding winner and I really can’t fault it.
first impressions are very good ,time will tell on reliability,picture quality is great ,Ai tracking very good will track someone coming up the drive and to front door and has my cars on drive covered
Arrived quickly and was relatively easy to install. The book of instructions is fairly basic and I needed to search on the internet on how to view the solar dashboard but not really a problem. Still happy to give 5 stars as the overall experience so far has been good.
What a great product. Up until recently I have been using Anker wired system with 2 cameras out in the back garden. I’v just swapped the 2for this one. Due to pan and tilt I only need the one. All I can say is great product. I have another two wireless solar panel cameras in the front garden and the version 3 of the box. IV had the camera up for 1week now and because of the solar panel it’s still at 100% even in our English weather.
I bought this product in Mid December to test the solar charging and can now confirm that after 6 weeks and over 500 events recorded, it is at full battery still. The camera itself is south facing so has the best sunlight available. I have a north facing camera on the rear that isn’t doing as well but is still at around 75% battery. Also the 128GB SD card that it comes with for local storage is plenty big enough. Fully recommended.
Had the security camera for around 3 weeks now. On the plus side, this was so easy to install and started working straight away. The small solar panel is more than adequate to keep it charged even in early Jan in UK. Alerts to my phone are almost instantaneous. Good quality videos both by day and night. Had a minor query not covered in the guides but emailed customer service and got a reply an hour later that sorted the query.
On the minus side, the range of the PIR is limited to around 10m so covers my front door and the back of the driveway but not people or vehicles entering the drive 20m away until they are well into the drive. Am seriously considering getting another to cover the driveway entrance.
In summary, excellent no subscription fit and forget security camera.
I knew Eufy products were good, but I was a little sceptical about the claims made by Eufy about this camera, especially the “forever power” thing. However, it’s actually true, I installed the camera the day it arrived. The power level initially dropped from 100% to 91% in the first couple of days then rose back up to 96% and has stayed there ever since. It is triggered on average around 40 – 50 times every 24 hours. The AI is great recognises humans and tracks them perfectly day or night, does not get triggered by animals (we live in the middle of nowhere), the nightvision is really good. I love it. Probably going to buy another one when it’s discounted again and I will replace my current video doorbell with a Eufy one.
This camera is easy to install, the solar panel works a treat even in the winter months it seems to keep it topped up. The quality of the image is outstanding even at night. The tracking works perfect. software is a bit buggy though, it totally ignores motion areas at night when cars pass by. Not a major issue though
