Brinno Duo Front Door Peephole Camera SHC1000W - Smart Home Security System with Mobile and Live Feed - Dual Image Storage with Data Privacy - No Fees, Quick, Easy Installation, Theft-Proof Design

Uh Correction -Don't be a me and let your instructions fall down the inside of your your couch??!?Honesty, I spent about 7 hours figuring out how to set this up. Welp It was more than worth the effort. This camera is awesome :) I researched peephole cameras and this seemed pretty amazing. Price didn't bother me much - I would have spent and additional several hundred I needed a cam so bad. The more expensive than BrinnoDuo, seemed to have less features, and had the appearance of being the same product, sold by different companies, bearing strange names. Anyway, once I figured it out, it was so simple to setup I did it an extra two times in mere minutes.Short story long, whilst I did the Rooster strut around my condo, I plopped don't on the couch to reward myself with a cold glass of grape juice, and low and behold... The instructions were poking me.. I laughed at myself for a moment, and then chucked them in the circular file without even looking at them.Summary: There are a lot of little steps you have to do to configure the functionally of all the features. Therefore, I highly encourage you to follow the instructions. Although I have never seen them, I imagine they drastically reduce setup time.The reviews for this item are way to low. Don't be fooled by them, I suspect they were people being a me. Minus the OCD thus allowing them quit trying. This is a quality product.. I'm highly pleased. Actually this is an across the board 5 star item, but a straight 5 star review I take with a grain of salt.

I thought this was exactly what I needed for my apartment. While I knew the motion detector would not get used, I loved the knock sensor. Here’s the problems: The app did not work on my iPhone XS. Well, the app worked and all, but the monitor told me no internet connection.. which I had. Therefore, the app was useless. I was told to use my HotSpot.. um, no. It’s wifi capable, and I set my wifi up correctly. It just wouldn’t connect. I wanted the app so I could keep an eye on things while my daughter was home. Here’s the biggest issue... the batteries. I have Industrial batteries and they lasted MAYBE 2 days. I went through 16 batteries in a week. I can’t afford that. Rechargables would give me the same issue so I didn’t even bother. The money is not worth it. I WILL say, the installation was EASY! As many components as there are, this was the best part about the entire thing. Installation was VERY simple... so simple even a caveman could do it!

The Brinno Duo Front Door i have this for about 3 years.The difficult part about it is the software where you have to download the app.And use the wifi connectivity, camera to app was so hard you need a lot of patient to get it to work, but the picture quality is pretty good.And have a really good night vision the value is a little high, but I think it's worth it and the other thing I don't like about it. I have to keep changing the batteries every 5 days Because this thing Burns up a lot of battery that the only problem i have with it. I'm currently using it And it still looked new.

This is a great device for monitoring and document activity around one's doorway.However, battery consumption is a real problem.Turning off the LCD monitor and Knock Detect features can lengthen battery life, but the Brinno still burns through AAA's rapidly, while the CR2450 button in the motion detector follows lose behind.Ideally, the unit should have an adapter plug option for the inside door mount unit.There are lithium chargers for both battery types available, and I would recommend you pair one with this, considering the expense and environmental impact and the potential of missing vital documentation in situations of crime.Otherwise an excellent security device for the record.

This product does what it advertises. Plain and simple. I LOVE IT! do not buy if you are not a tech lover and u have 0 patience to figure stuff out; Seriously! You will end up returning it. Discrete and on point!

The unit I received did not work as advertised. I tried trouble shooting but still did not function.Deal breaker was Sensor is not aligned, video is pointed up at ceiling.Does not detect motion.Recording does not come on when knocking.Does not function as advertised.

Unreliable and overpriced for the features you get. Item only takes photos, which is silly given that most front door/doorbell cameras can do video and 2-way conversations, while costing a lot less. Currently I have to reboot the camera every day to get it to reconnect to my WiFi, which is odd given that my apartment is small and completely blanketed in WiFi coverage. I do like that when the motion detector is installed in an area other than the included knocker there is no obvious sign that a camera is monitoring the person at your door.

Good solution for a hidden camera. My main goal was to be able to see who's at the door without them knowing. Also good to know when/who comes to my door. Those parts work great. However, the wifi will not work. I have 2 wifi networks and this device does not work with either even after I change the configuration of one of them to everything imaginable.
