  • I recently adopted a dog who I want to monitor when I’m away from home. So I got a cheap motion tracking in-home camera with cloud storage, and AI identification for people and pets. The AI functions never fucking worked. I already had a Ring camera.

    Did a bit of research after realising the cheapo camera was shit, and went for a eufy stack to replace the Ring doorbell and tbr shitty in-house camera.

    I now have:

    • eufy Video Doorbell
    • eufy HomeBase 3, with an added 1TB of storage
    • eufy IndoorCam C220

    This gives me

    • local storage for both cameras on the HomeBase.
    • the HomeBase also gives you local AI for (individual) person, (general) pet, vehicle, and package identification. I haven’t tried the vehicle identification.
    • streaming in the app for both cameras should work in 2k. I have it set to 1080p. It’s good enough for me.
    • continuous recording is an option. I have it set to motion alerts because
    • the app gives you motion and doorbell alerts. You can configure how much information you want in the notifications, to prevent video’s from passing through eufy’s servers.
