QUOTE(revolnia @ Oct 10 2024, 07:50 PM) Hi Sifoo, Tapo is generally cheap and decent for the price. For privacy, I would advise not to insert SD CARD to record for indoors unit (in case you love walking around naked). I had one Tapo T100 and T110 for indoors living room, kitchen area and parking compound. Then I added 1 C200 for back street and also one on 2nd floor balcony to pan around and lookout since my area surrounded by temple and church with lots of traffic at times. Working great so far. I am looking to buy four CCTV cameras for my double-storey landed house. The areas I plan to install them are: - Car porch (entrance gate) - Living room - Kitchen - Kids' area I am considering the following two models: 1. TP-Link TAPO C200C: https://my.shp.ee/KxYq8s8 2. SriHome SP028: https://my.shp.ee/MrK727q My budget is around the price range of these models. Could you provide any reviews, opinions, or recommendations on which one might be a better choice? Thank you! Note: On Shopee, I saw that the SriHome brand is the No. 1 best-selling Wi-Fi camera. Personally I do not like CCTV system for home because I think they work better for offices/factories whereby you set a TV for your staffs to monitor in/out movement and it also provided better clarity for live viewing, but once saved, the video is compressed so much that you could barely differentiate the human face from one another. Tapo system is more convenient in case you love to move the camera around to monitor other things such as suddenly wanting to add a camera to monitor your pet or elderly at home. You can also buy a tapo plug to turn the camera on and off at certain time to provide privacy in case you need to set the camera at sensitive location such as bathroom or bedroom for the elderly. Not to mention Tapo also record sound which is useful and can be use to communicate directly via the camera itself.

QUOTE(blacktubi @ Oct 20 2024, 01:38 PM) I find Tapo to be slightly faster, more responsive and less connection issues. Yeah... especially if you also have other tapo products such a led strip/light and smart plug. They even finally accepted Kasa product as well.Not sure about current models but I face the network unstable issue back then due to the poor WiFi signal reception on Ezviz camera. But, I do find Ezviz seems to be slightly better at dealing with backlight compensation / wider dynamic range. Newer Tapo like the C120/C225 finally caught up in this area. Basically Tapo's parent company, TP-Link is a networking brand, they seem to do networking better. Ezviz's parent company, Hikvision is a camera brand, they are better at image quality. |

QUOTE(revolnia @ Oct 21 2024, 09:26 PM) Thank you for all the feedback! I'll most likely go for TAPO because it's within my budget and easier to set up based on the feedback You can also grab those extender from lazada if you dont have a power socket nearby This post has been edited by andrekua2: Oct 22 2024, 09:21 AM |

QUOTE(wc_how @ Nov 28 2024, 09:05 AM) IP cam is for newbie. The only benefit is easy to setup. Quality so so and lack of a lot of features. Later kena sue peeping into neighbour house baru tauI am using some mid-high range of cam, which able to capture opposite carplate at night. For me, i feel it defeat the purpose if the cctv cannot capture the image clear as it is same as it doesnt capture the image. Lately, i also integrate the system into smart home and also AI detective that filter 85% of fake alarm. The only downside is, you need to spend a lot. You need high cpu power to support high quality camera and synology free license support 2 cams only. |
