  • The new #NestCam with Floodlight illuminates the night sky to keep an eye on the areas that matter most to you. The Nest Cam with Floodlight is designed to replace an existing floodlight with a wired connection.
    Here’s how to install the Nest Cam with Floodlight on your home:
    1. Scan the QR code on the Nest Cam in the Google Home app, then follow the instructions on how to remove your old floodlight.
    2. For safety, turn off the power to your old floodlight via your home breaker first.
    3. To start installation on your new floodlight, connect the green grounding wire provided to the existing grounding wire.
    4. Pull the wires through the ground box, then secure the mounting plate to your wall by screwing it in.
    5. Place the cover over the mounting plate. The blue arrow and G should be facing up. Once you hear a click, screw it in to secure it.
    6. Connect the floodlight wires with the home wires: white wire with white wire, then black wire to black wire. Push the wires back through the cover and into the junction box.
    7. Position your floodlight over the cover. Twist counterclockwise to align the clips with the holes, push, then clockwise to set in place. You will hear a click when it’s set.
    8. Mount the camera to the front of the floodlight magnetically and connect the power cable to the camera.
    9. Turn power back on. The floodlight will light up and camera will blink blue if it’s working.
    10. Position the floodlights where you want them, then twist the knobs to secure.
    11. Connect the Nest Cam to your Wi-Fi, and finish set up in the Google Home App.

    Nest Cam with floodlight requires the Google Home app and a Google Account - it's not compatible with the Nest app or the home.nest.com site.

Have seen a couple of cats, my dogs, when I am out front. And had a bee buzzing around right in front of it. It works very well. It even shows the neighbour's driveway, but only shows movement just past my own, which is very long. I highly recommend them.

      @@madebygoogle The problem currently with that plan is the Google Home app is functionally inferior to the Nest app (by a large margin), which makes the proposition of spending £££/$$$ much less enticing compared to the functionality I already get from the Nest app and my Google Cam IQ Outdoor.

    I just installed this floodlight today. It's nice the only thing is the power cable for the camera is short that it does not let you adjust the camera and hide the wire. Whoever designed it has a house with a light on the sidewall outside. So I have the wire in the front sticking out and the mini speaker facing up if it rains it's gonna go right in the speaker. I might return it just because of that don't know unless they have a longer power cable for the camera that gives me an option to hide the cable and face the camera the right way. The camera was installed under an eave, looks good, video great but I don't think it was made for under the eave installation, think it was made to be installed sideways, sidewall something like that

      It should be wired to permanent live (if there is already a switch in the circuit you could just leave the switch in the "on" position and use the switch live as if it was a permanent live to achieve the end result but with a bit less work involved compared to wiring in a true permanent live) and you can use the Google Home app to control when the lights come on.

      I went to Best Buy to purchase 2 of these tonight, and while they couldn't locate the ones their inventory said they had, they did have a display unit out. I played with it, and seems that the camera can be oriented for a hanging installation, but is limited by the cord to a downward 20° or so angle. I don't know if the cord on an actual unit has any adjustments for length, or is longer than the dummy unit. For my purposes, I believe this is probably enough given the height they would be installed at.

    I was able to mount mine vertically. Follow the same instructions. The only differences are: Be careful which way you put the white mounting plate cover. There's an antitheft screw that has to match up with the direction the camera will face. Hanging from the s-hook will not work, just hold it with one hand and tighten the wire nut with the other, or get an extra hand or bungee to hold it up. Lastly, after setting up the camera to the app, go to the settings and rotate the camera 180 degrees.

I then disabled the 5ghz to allow the stronger signal of the 2.4ghz to pick it up... but no success. After spending three days of climbing a ladder to reset the camera and too many hours of watching the animated google home app trying to connect... I give up. This was just a waste of my time.
