Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

My criteria for security cameras is as follows: 1) Good quality picture 2) Triggers at good distances 3) Records videos locally (no monthly fee and privacy) 4) Low number of false triggers 5) A good phone app to control the cameras and view the videos. 6) A reasonable price The Zeeporte camera checks all of the above boxes. I'll start here by saying that I've tried Eufy 2C, Vava, and Blink X2C systems. They are all more expensive (and sometimes much more expensive) than the Zeeporte. But the Zeeporte is a superior system to all that I've tried so far. The battery life of this camera is decent. I've used it heavily over the past 6+ days with many tests. I've recorded 209 motions and it is at 89%. Since I've used it heavily, I'll estimate 10% per week which means that it'll last 10 weeks (2.5 months) on a charge. In regards to size of the memory card that you'll need, I've used .22GB of the 120 GB card that I bought. At the current rate, it will record for 1.5 years before getting full - and then I'll just reset it. It is easy to transfer clips to your phone storage (online for my iphone). When I did my testing, I set it to the motion detection sensitivity to the highest value (95). What really impresses me with this camera is the low number of false triggers.. Really, I get none. It records people and cars and that is it. And it does not seem to miss any events. The angle of the camera did affect the distance of the triggering so try different angles. The only area of improvement that I can see is the mount. It is fine, but as I noted in my headline, I've tried several brands now including Eufy, Vava, and Blink. All of these brands had superior mounts, but the one that Zeeporte mount is fine. I had to make sure I tightened it well. One note - the other manufacturers that I listed require base stations and do not record on the camera itself. The Zeeporte does. This means if someone steals your camera, then they will get your videos. So, just don't put your camera within reach. A camera should not be mounted low and the instructions tell you to not do so. This is probably another reason that Zeeporte does not have a magnetic mount.. which would make it easy to steal. The mount that it has requires you to screw it off. Oh.. I just remembered another great feature of the Zeeporte. After your day is finished, you can view the events for the day (and all prior days) in a mode that shows you a timeline and lets you quickly sweep to each event based on the time and watch it. This is really nice to have! Overall, I do recommend it 100%
