Outdoor camera2KOur opinion
The price and coverage are compelling, but there is no verified local recording route and outdoor cable placement must be planned carefully.
Watch-outs
- Does not support Arlo SmartHub or Base Station
- Saved recordings require Arlo Secure
- Needs a safe permanent power route
