As we’ve already mentioned, the EufyCam 2 Pro comes as a kit with two weatherproof cameras and a base station. The base station, which is relatively compact at 5.11 x 3.07 x 3.07 inches / 13 x 7.8 x 7.8cm (h x w x d), offers 16GB of local storage for footage recorded by the camera. Eufy claims this should suffice for three months' worth of footage, based on 20 events a day, each lasting 30 seconds. That is a massive advantage to other systems that try to squeeze you for a monthly subscription just to see the footage your camera has recorded.

Thanks to its pretty stellar feature set, the performance of the Eufycam 2 is surprisingly solid... as long as it’s within 60 to 100 feet of the HomeBase. An IP67 rating indicates that the EufyCam 2 Pro is impervious to dust and that it can survive immersion in up to one meter of water for 30 minutes.

Are two 1080p cameras enough to protect your home? You'd be surprised...

The good news here is that there is no overhead to any Eufy camera. You buy it, you own it and you can manage it all without ever having to pay a subscription fee. HomeBase fungeert als een Wi-Fi repeater die het signaal naar de camera's versterkt, waardoor het dekkingsgebied van uw Wi-Fi-netwerk wordt uitgebreid. Unwichtige Bewegungen wie vorbeilaufende Hunde oder herabfallende Herbstblätter werden ganz smart ignoriert. Beyond the video clarity and storage, there are some notable features to the EufyCam 2 Pro that are useful. One surprising option is the ability to put each camera and the HomeBase 2 on Anti-Theft Detection Mode. This means if anyone moves the camera or HomeBase, an alarm will sound. It would be nice if Eufy also offered to replace stolen cameras like Ring does, but I still think the alarm feature is cool. Without cords or wires of any kind, eufyCam S221 (eufyCam 2 Pro) installs indoors and out with ease to surveil your home for 365 days on a single charge.

Zonder snoeren of draden van welke aard dan ook, installeert eufyCam S221 (eufyCam 2 Pro) met gemak binnen en buiten om uw huis 365 dagen lang in één keer te verrassen.Speaking of clips, they’re all stored directly on the HomeBase - which is actually a good thing in case someone were to ever come along and take the camera. The HomeBase has 16GB of internal storage for clips, which should last you around a month before it needs to start erasing old footage, but keep in mind that it will all be in 1080p resolution. This is really helpful if your signal isn’t the best or you have a long stretch of space between your router and your cameras. On the other hand, the HomeBase takes up yet another Ethernet port on your router and another power outlet that you probably can’t spare.

The built-in AI proved extremely accurate when it came to identifying people in the camera’s field of view, even providing a small thumbnail of the person in the Events list. We found the two-way talk function clear, too.The app has a Power Manager option for each camera that can make the battery last longer, though. You can set the camera to Optimal Battery Life Mode, which limits video clips to 20 seconds to prevent draining the battery. Meanwhile, an Optimal Surveillance Mode allows clips to be as long as 60 seconds and a Customize Recording Mode lets you choose how long clips last. Alina Bradford / Digital Trends The company says that the EufyCam 2 Pro can last for 365 days from just one charge, if the camera records around 300 seconds of footage per day. If that were true, it would most certainly stand out from other cameras for that alone. Six months is usually the max. Unfortunately, after using the cameras for just one day, the battery gauge said power had dropped by 1%, so it’s hard to say how true the claim of a year-long battery life really is in the everyday household.
