re: Outdoor security cameras

Posted by TechDadHere on 11/23/18 at 5:35 am
Arlo user here as well. It has a mobile app that you can check on your phone, has two way audio as well. I think they're dropping good deals [link=(https://smartrobotichome.com/black-friday-cyber-monday-arlo-deals/)]here[/link] now that it's the black friday. But you might not like its monthly stora...
I agree on the Arlo pro. The surveillance, notification, the quality of the videos are great. But if you place it in a busy location, battery change is going to be a bit of a hassle. Not to mention their cloud subscription. I hope [link=(https://smartrobotichome.com/arlo-pro-vs-arlo-pro-2-difference...

re: Arlo Reviews

Posted by TechDadHere on 7/29/18 at 4:51 am
another edge of Arlo pro 2 is the continuous recording. The arlo pro couldn't do that. It only records when it detects motion. Clearer recording on pro 2 too! ...

Agree on the sensitivity. It doesn't have to be the Arlo itself that needs to be adjusted. Might find few help [link=(https://smartrobotichome.com/smart-security-camera-comparison/#arlo_pro)]here.[/link] Mine does the opposite though, I get false notifs every now and then.

can you possibly track down the address where it's supposed to be delivered?...

Either of the Arlo pro and Nest should be good. Both of [link=(https://smartrobotichome.com/arlo-pro-vs-nest-cam-outdoor/)]these[/link] cameras have amazing 2way communication which i think is necessary in every wifi cams nowadays. Nest got's a way better resolution though - 1080p...

I have an ecobee4. It came handy since it's got built in alexa already. if you're planning to start a smarthome, it might be a good idea to [link=(https://smartrobotichome.com/ecobee3-vs-ecobee4-differences/)]check it[/link]. It works great with our HVAC. But ecobee 3 is already a decent thermostat,...
If you plan to install one outdoors, wireless cams might be something worth checking out. We have a bunch of it and everything's doing good so far. But I noticed that these cameras sometimes fail to work properly when there's an intermittent connection. That seldom happens to us anyway so it's sti...

re: Canary vs. Ring vs. Nest Question

Posted by TechDadHere on 4/20/18 at 12:37 pm
I used to have a Canary and i must say, the resolution is just great. We liked it then coz it really doesn't look like a camera at first glance, more like a speaker. I also noticed that it takes a couple of seconds to load, maybe because all of its controls are on the app? Idk. I read [link=(https:/...

re: Best Roomba vacuum knock off?

Posted by TechDadHere on 4/19/18 at 9:04 am
Eufy might work fine too. Before we got ourselves the Roomba, we first had Eufy and I can say the suction is awesome. The only reason why we switched to Roomba is because Eufy can't work with Alexa, other than that. Eufy is good. You can check [link=(https://smartrobotichome.com/eufy-vs-roomba-which...

re: Nest cams vs others

Posted by TechDadHere on 4/17/18 at 2:54 am
I love Canary cams! They look like speakers at first glance. It's one of our choices when still finding a monitor for my toddlers. But ended up getting a different brand. I read [link=(https://smartrobotichome.com/smart-security-camera-comparison/#canary)]this[/link] post that its sensors are a bit ...
Rootin' for arlo pro as well, if against the arlo. It has similar features with the previous arlo but the improvements on the pro is something to consider. Speak&hear thru the camera is awesome. It also sends notifications, sometimes there's too much false notifs though. I found [link=(https://smart...

re: Best Home Camera System

Posted by TechDadHere on 4/8/18 at 7:19 am
We had the arlo. It's great that i get to hear through the cams, it has a motion sensor too but sometimes it gets a little too sensitive that it sends false notifs. You can check few [link=(https://smartrobotichome.com/smart-security-camera-comparison/#arlo_pro)]details[/link] about it. The resoluti...

I've had this before but with nest. We didn't really need advanced troubleshooting. We just powercycled. [link=(https://smartrobotichome.com/ecobee3-vs-ecobee4-differences/)]it[/link] sometimes fixes the bugs. I hope yours gets fixed soonest....

re: Ecobee 3 or 4?

I think arlo pro is good enough. Most of the wifi cams nowadays have monthly cloud fee, though there are [link=(https://smartrobotichome.com/smart-security-camera-comparison/#arlo_pro)]some[/link] that doesn't. I just feel like it's batteries aren't so great. ...

It's good but you might want to check further [link=(https://smartrobotichome.com/smart-security-camera-comparison/)]details[/link] about it. I've seen Piper nv which is quite similar with arlo pro. Only it's cheaper. One thing not so nice about this though is the video resolution....
