    In this video i test out the 360 degree motion Tracking Solar Powered CCTV by Anran
    It has a free App, loads of controll and extra features its a pretty good Camera for the Home or office
    I found it reduced at £79.99 ON Amazon from £89.99
    Not linked to Anran in any way this is just my opinion and personal experience
    I Am affiliated to Amazon so will recieve a small percentage if you use my Links

    i bought one of ebay for £70 its now all installed and working fine , i am just thinking of a way to extend it out from the wall by about 9" , don't if any one on here has done it but i am open to some tips ,

      Hi, I have this issue, I assume you are installing it on a corner of the building so you want maximum coverage. My thoughts at the moment is to mount the camera at the end of a piece of wood, say 1ft long, then attach the other end of the wood onto the wall. One question I need answering if you know, the motion detection is to turn the camera on and notify you of an event, but does the camera track the person?

    Hello my friend! I really Loved your video!!! EVERYTHING is covered in it! Really good work! Only good video I found that does the job!!! Believe me.. I have watched many of them on YT LOL!. Based on it, I am ordering this exact camera in the Philippines. My options are limited but Anran is available. Shipping issues are a problem in the Philippines. It takes a lot of time. Anran have in country customer service and warranties are honored. plus its local in a warehouse. Even with that... I expect to wait 7 to 14 days to get it! Your video secures me in having no add'l wasted time and money! A big Thank you! I became a sub!

    The event recoding was working well for 2 days with the SD card. Then stopped viewing the video. But still recoding the event.

    Any advice please

    • @REALLYRANDOMREVIEW5
      @REALLYRANDOMREVIEW5  6 місяців тому

      ok im not 100 % sure it sounds like somewhere the settings are sending your footage to cloud storage as the memory card may have been full also you can access all the live events without subscription to the cloud personally i recommend using the free version unless you do want to keep and refer to all the footage at some point
      if you look in the messages tab there should be alerts but alerts need to be active and it can be a little annoying if you have pets settting it off all day like i do etc
      it sounds like the memory card got full and the camera didnt know where you want the footage to be kept so has no back up i only SD for back up and re write after 7 days try restarting the set up process check all permissions are active and your live feed and captures should all be there for free my friend

      you dont need to use the PTZ
      if you press the full screen icon (bottom right of live view) and rotate your device it's bigger and a little easier to do.

    How do you see the previous videos?. I use a SD card instead of monthly paid cloud storage. I can’t see anything from the playback and there’s no option of continuous recording. It can only record videos by turning on the smart detection and alarm prompt tone where it rings when somebody walks by but I don’t want the cctv to ring all the damn time when somebody walks by and the cctv is place on public. How to turn it on?

      Hi
      you can access the recorded footage from the 3 lines top left corner click messages then alarm messages all the footage should be there you don't need to pay for that you only need to pay for cloud but its not necassary
      the alarm alerts are annoying i had the same issue
      tbh i solved this by Turning alert notifications off and on when need be
      to do this scroll right on the pan and zoom page and select audio warning where there are a couple of options i hope this helps

    What does the Red/Blue Led light indicate next to the charging port? Mine flashes blue-red when a 2a charger is connected.

    • @REALLYRANDOMREVIEW5
      @REALLYRANDOMREVIEW5  Рік тому +1

      red means charging blue means fully charged if it flashes maybe the charger cable is to powerfull for it or it sounds like its confusing the device into thinking its fully charged before power is taken on the cable must be incompatable or inefficient for this camera bare in mind it is Solar power so it draws a long slow trickle charge from the pannel normally. depending on configuration like in my case i need to charge every now and then i just use a standard usb cable micro hope that helps

    What are the benefits of adding a 128GB SD card? Does it record footage on its own? For example, that way I can view my outdoor activities over night while sleeping?

    • @REALLYRANDOMREVIEW5
      @REALLYRANDOMREVIEW5  Рік тому +2

      Hello !
      The SD card would just back up the footage and give you a physical copy incase of a crime or something important,
      as for your use case im not sure this Camera would be suitable as it only Records once it has detected motion and the clips are only around 10 second s
      although there is a manual record button in the app, so technically you could record while sleeping i guess but im not sure it would run through the night as storage may become an issue i hope this helps answer your question
      i should have tested the length of that record feature in the Review noted for next time :-)

      ​@@REALLYRANDOMREVIEW5 acually in case of the more typical common "crime", a cloud based storage is your only hope to still have footage, least the jerks who've done crimes on my property, the first thing they do, Is find the angle my camera isn't facing or can't turn, and ripp the camera down, dismount the memory card, then break wtv they can on camera and take memory card w them or dispose of it where ever I can't find...idk maybe my neighborhood criminals are like pro or something, lol, idk, but I've spent hundreds $ and many hours trying to catch the criminals.

      then select share
      a options menu should show up asking which device you want to share with
      as for notifications they are in the main settings
      click live view
      you should see a Cog icon appear in the top right corner
      here you can adjust motion detection sensitivity alarms etc the constant allarm on max settings was too high for me it alerts you of everything even light changes turning a room light on for eg so i have mine set to motion only and have the notifications on but on silent i activate them when i go out which could be easier but not much of an issue in my experience
      Good luck setting up i hope this helps you out have a great Day !

    • @REALLYRANDOMREVIEW5
      @REALLYRANDOMREVIEW5  Рік тому +2

      ok so this would be ok in this use case but it would require a Internet connection, to view live footage, Hotspots can also work but tbh
      i would recommend something with either back up power or constant recording for that kind of thing as the Horses may set the camera off over and over and drain the battery quicker it is solar so you can get around that problem
      but then you would still need to either boost wifi to reach that area or if its too far away maybe consider finding a way to get it there
      It will still charge in low light all be it slower battery life is good too hope this helps answer your question

      a few options ... you could either go with a Hard wired nvr or dvr system and hide the storage device somewhere in the home or you could add a small cage around the camera unit as its fairly inexpensive and would prevent easy access to devices also make sure to back up any footage digitally so you do have several copys you may need to maintain the file sizes etc but its an option

      if your struggling with connection...
      and you do mean to get the QR Code ?
      you need to reset the camera by holding reset button 3 seconds this will then try to repair the connection press the promts on screen that will either direct you to the QR code or failing that there is a manual set up you could try !
      if you get stuck i can try help you out further hope it helps point you in the right direction

    Whats the run time of the camera when triggered on full charge?

    • @REALLYRANDOMREVIEW5
      @REALLYRANDOMREVIEW5  Рік тому +1

      The run time is very good once fully charged it will last approx 6 to 8 weeks depending on usage maybe longer without re charging. or the solar panel can keep it at around 80 % it still charges a little even in poor day light ! (sun prefered)
      each time the motion is triggered which in my case is A Lot lol, I have it record 20 second clips if somone was under it for a minuite it would give you 3 clips Theres loads of custom settings to reduce battery life too like Spot light off in Daytime etc
      i hope this helps answers your question

      Hi,
      Yes it comes with a USB lead aswel for manual Charging in case of low sun light and the battery life is incredible to be fair to it, better than expected.
      Also Yes if it powers down it remembers all previous wifi settings etc
      it basically refreshes your life feed everytime you open the app and if for some reason it does disconnect you from wifi for any reason You dont need to do the whole set up again it remembers the last connection but may ask for a password hope that helps answer your question

      Hi Mate there are quite a few sub sections and options in the menu s it can be a little tricky navigating at first im sure its just a setting that needs turning on or do you have the IR sensors on ? It should detect motion and detect movement
      It doesnt live track motion but does activate recording when detected

      @REALLYRANDOMREVIEW5  27 днів тому

      yes you can press record and leave it running im not sure on the total run time of the ssd it will vary on footage quiality 2k will use more space than 1080p for eg so i would have to test time wise but yes you can record constant if you prefer it can also be set up to auto re write so it will back up to the sd card then when full start the sd card starts again i believe iv never had any issues but i dont record 24/7 just on motion detection which also works well

      To boost the signal I think you would need a 3rd party work around for eg
      If You want to place it in the field to monitor live stock but dont have wifi in the field then you would have options via hot spots etc
      as farr as boosting the actual system though im not sure you can, but its pretty good already within recommended opperating Range

    • @REALLYRANDOMREVIEW5
      @REALLYRANDOMREVIEW5  11 місяців тому +2

      if you place it in a well lit area Yes it basically trickle charges and the battery life is Very good so it can stay on constant
      mine lasts days like 4 or 5 days at a time off solar with a lot of motion alerts from my pets...
      on solar I never need to worry about Charging but i live in the North UK in a valley type town which is always Dull and cloudy plus my placement is not ideal so I need to charge now and then but yes if you have the solar panel placed in direct sun light it should be fine my friend !

    One question I was always curious to have an answer for, what happens when your batteries die out? Seems to me a lot of solar powered cctv cameras have one common problem - you cannot change their batteries. Or can you on some models perhaps? They might work for say 3 years tops but it would be a pity if they cannot be changed or replaced. Thank you.

    • @REALLYRANDOMREVIEW5
      @REALLYRANDOMREVIEW5  Рік тому +1

      Very good question i suppose you could change the battery on anything in theory but im not sure how you would although after testing the battery life on this model i believe they have used a High quality maybe even a lithium battery
      shame but nothing really these days is built with user maintainance in mind unfortunately

      @rambo41554 Рік тому

      @@REALLYRANDOMREVIEW5 I agree with you on this. Some cctv cameras I have looked at on amazon might be of the battery replacement type because on the specifications of such cameras, it says batteries not included. Its a shame that such cctv cameras are not of good quality and then the good quality cameras have batteries that are inbuilt and that are probably next to impossible to access and change.
