EZVIZ Floodlight Security Camera WiFi 1080P, Motion-Activated Enhanced with PIR&H265, Floodlight&Siren Alarm, Starlight Color Night Vision, Two-Way Audio, Weather Proof (LC1C)

*** UPDATE 6/23/2023 I just purchased my second EZViz LC1C floodlight camera. They definitely have improved the analytics that goes into the camera motion sensing. You can now filter alarm results by Motion, Person, Vehicle, Sound, and Alarm. I do wish you could use this as selective criteria for activating the light and sending an alert. I am sure they will get there with this functionality soon. They have a new version of the Windows program now as well. Changed my rating to 5 stars!*** * I did a respectable amount of research on floodlight cameras in general before deciding on the EZVIZ LC1C. I just want to say this solution does seem to check all the boxes for my needs. Most importantly it just works and works well. 1. No monthly fees. Buy it and it works. 2. Uses up to 256G memory card 3. Works well with Google Home 4. Android app and Microsoft Windows program! 5. Connects to my Security Camera VMS as a network camera. 6. Crazy good night vision. 7. It is very very sensitive when it comes to motion sensing and PIR. Too sensitive, but you can adjust down both to your needs. 8. Fast notifications regardless of being remote or local. 9. Very bright LED lighting system. 2000L 10. This thing is built like an anchor. Solid and sturdy... and heavy. EDIT: I have some CONS after using this for a while now. Now FIXED! 1. No way to access and adjust advanced camera settings I.E. (Color, Contrast, WDR, etc.) Now FIXED! 2. Can not remove the logo from the video feed or move it to another location on the screen. 3. Huge oversight in that you can not turn the light off and on with Google or Alexa. You have to use the App which is a pain to get at. Now FIXED! 4. Frame Rate is locked at 15 with no way to adjust it. I would like to see an AI version of this! Hope this helps.

I have two different types of EZVIZ security cameras, and I would recommend EZVIZ brand. Both devices display on my EZVIZ app which makes it easy and convenient to monitor, with no additional fees. You can adjust the light brightness on the floodlight which is very nice feature. It does cover a small to large area for motion which you can adjust, but I wish the range adjustment for the light linkage offered a little more detailed adjustment. I do not use CloudPlay so I purchased a memory card should I want to store any video clips for future reference. Otherwise, the device has an Event View feature that stores movement taken throughout the day/night that you can view. I am happy with EZVIZ and would recommend.

FINAL UPDATE AFTER 2+ YEARS Wasted far too much time on this unit. It's junk...unreliable to the point of being useless. Even Ezviz app was happy with wifi signal, but no...this sorry excuse for a security camera that offers very little security dropped out twice a werk. This unit is in my garbage can as I write this. It will forever reside where it belongs. With so many decent cameras in the world, do not waste your money on this boat anchor. UPDATE 1 YEAR + After wasting my time on this lump of useless junk for over a year, I'd say I gave it a chance. It never did work properly and I would tell a potential buyer to run from this camera as fast as possible. I would stick with Ezviz, just not this engineering mistake. Lousy connection to wifi even though Ezviz' own speed test says wifi is fine. Constant fiddling and very unreliable. The Ezviz PTZ cameras are much, much more stable. Let's let these rot in an Ezviz warehouse, shall we? Bezos still owes me a refund for this nightmare. Update, 1 month: Camera connects to wi-fi only occasionally. Tried device at two locations 500 miles apart and same results. Very, very poor connections even when EZVIZ app says signal is good for one device in selected location. I bought an EZVIZ C8C and it worked fine in the same locations. The LC1C obviously has issues and you have been warned. Will EZVIZ give me a refund? Probably not even though I have seven of their cameras. Just got off the phone with "Karen" from EZVIZ customer service. Every potential Ezviz customer should be aware that each device requires 2 megabytes of upload speed. So, do not expect 5 devices (10 meg ) to work if you only have 6 megabytes up. Now, I've had 4 running for two years with only 6 meg up, With no real issues In trying to add the LC1C, no dice...won't work. If I had known this before my purchase I could have saved $150 bucks. Bezos owes me a refund.

UPDATE: Nov 2021 I purchased a second camera for use in the front of my house. Unfortunately, like many similar designs, this camera is only really useful in a wall-mounted configuration but many floodlights need to be mounted upside down (see pic) under the roofline. In this configuration the cameras angle could not be adjusted enough to get a level view of the surrounding area. I still believe this to be a great overall camera but Ezviz might be well advised to consider either a redesign or a new model that offers better adjustment angles for upside down installations.. The Ezviz floodlight camera has all of the features you want in a product like this, and at a price much more reasonable than some of it's competitors. Installation is a snap if you're even moderately handy and camera setup is equally painless through the Ezviz app. As I've said in other reviews, the overall app experience is probably the weakest feature of the Ezviz line and needs improvement but camera setup works just fine. Once you have the camera up and running the crisp and clear picture it displays will likely impress. Night vision is about average but nothing too special. Like other Ezviz models, this camera will accept a micro SD card for local storage. It can be up to 128 GB, which is a lot and I have heard reports that it will actually support 256 GB but haven't verified this just yet. The camera offer 3 different motion zones. I found the larger area selections produced a lot of false alarms, especially at night, so I keep mine on the lowest setting or disabled. I'm sure if I spent a little time with it I could get this fine tuned for my situation so I'm not faulting the camera at this point. About the only complaint i have about this camera [other than the app experience] is that it's not at all tamper proof. A motivated and reasonably intelligent person could have this camera uninstalled and in their backpack, duffel bag, etc within a couple of minutes. Maybe Ezviz felt this was OK as a camera like this would be mounted near the roof [and so safe from intruders] but this is not always the case. Mine is mounted over my rear porch and easily accessible. My Ezviz DB1 doorbell cam contains security screws that can only be removed with the tool provided with the unit. There's no excuse for not implementing something similar on this, one of their most expensive models. Despite some room for minor improvement this is easily one of the best bargains to be had in flood cameras. It checks all of the important boxes and does so without cloud fees, unless you prefer remote storage and opt in.

I like how easily the cameras are to set up. The cameras do require wifi to work properly. The micro sd storage allows for review of video recorded in the recent past. The sd card is allowed to a maximum of 128gbs and will create more storage for more videos of the past. They do offer a storage cloud that you do have to pay for to use it. No subscription needed to use the app with the cameras. There is a desktop app and smart phone app. Both work great.

The camera works just fine. The floodlights burned out within 6 months. It does not affect the function of the camera photos. The floodlights stopped working and glowed like a regular light all the time and then they started flashing and now they are dead. The goal was to light up the driveway and now there is minimal light. I had solar lights with just a regular Ezviz camera before putting up the camera with the floodlights. I will go back to the solar lights, they are fantastic, but are not made by Ezviz.

I've been collecting various wifi security cameras as they go on sale and so I have a lot of experience with cameras. They all seem to be operating on 2.4mhz only although it seems some newer ones can go 5mhz. That said, I really liked by EZVIZ cameras, allowing good connection with the app and pretty speed connections and videos. I have the ptz and several bullet cams. One bullet cams is on its last legs even though it sits undercover. There is a lot of static and a line that goes through the video. Anyway, I also have several floodlight cams. They all need SD cards with local storage which is what I prefer. So when it came to buying another floodcam, I bought this one and have had it installed now for 3 months. The video connection is spotty, and so retrieval of videos from the app is spotty at best. I had to climb up to the unit and eject the SD card. The format is in a proprietary format, but VLC could read the video. That said, the lights work well and I like that you can add so many cameras to this app and there is a windows app as well for the desktop. It works with alexa and google but the video is on for a minute until it loses connection; WHEN it connects. i have 3 other active EZVIZ cameras, so 4 total (5 if you count the one that went bad). All the bullet cams stream well, even when it is showing all the cameras concurrently, except this one that freezes and reloads and disconnects. I bet this floodlight was made by another OEM and the wifi is bad. I can only think this is the reason. Too bad because I was trusting this camera would add to a nice ecosystem that I was starting to trust. Too bad.

These have worked great for three (Now 4) years in brutal desert weather, and the SD card keeps recording even when Wi-Fi problems knock it offline temporarily. It's the only one I can find that offers cloud storage and the option to store your data locally on an SD card right on the device..... this puts it far above the competition! Thank you for the great product!

I have a outdoor security camera on the driveway has worked flawlessly for about a year, like it so much bought this motion light camera of the same make about six months ago still working great no problems so far. What is really nice is that you use one APP to monitor both devices and any future add on. It also has allot for a micro sb card so that you can access your recordings I put a 128 gb card on both allows for quite a bit of recording before looping an rewriting. I would definitely recommend

You might get a bummed unit! Return requested because apparently it's a system that is common for the SD card to fall into the unit. Poorly made sd card slots are the culprit. I tried to get it out unfortunately I can't. So I contacted supplier for a full return and take my loss with the 100$ sd card. They stated that I would lose $ for a restocking fee because the unit works after giving me a hard time. Pffff what????. Well after that i contacted amazon and showed them the hostel message i was sent and amazon said that they have the a-z money back guarantee. Great i thought. Then amazon contacted me back and said they spoke to supplier and bc the unit works I'll loose some money for restocking fee. I feel even if I return the unit to the supplier they will make any and all excuses to keep some money which shows with amazon how quickly the story turned. Besides getting a unit that won't hold a sd the night vision is super sensitive and goes off all the time with bugs. The picture it self is good but the lumens is not what they stated , not bright at all. One star is for poor lighting Sd card holder and poor customer service. Overall , not worth the headache.

It’s good camera, they increased price now, I love to buy more if price is same as previous one.light is very bright

Easy to install but the features are limited and not easy to configure Would have been nice if there was an internal memory card. The EZVIZ app slow to provide notifications

I now own 5 of these cameras and only 2 work. Two had faulty LED lights right after installing them, which made the units useless. You can't change them out, which means your are buying another whole camera. When I got the new one delivered it would not connect to my wifi! I tried everything but no luck. Funny rhat the camera with the burned out LED lights connected easily. How can 2 out of 5 units work, almost mouth of the box! I am upset because I invested in several indoor and outdoor cameras and now everything has to be replaced with a different company's products. $1200 bucks down the drain.
