Sonew 1.8mm 180° Wide Angle Board Lens, HD 5mp Fisheye View CCTV Wide Angle Camera for CCTV Cameras

The media could not be loaded. Cheap ass Ring uses a plastic lens in their “Floodlight Cam Wired Plus” driveway security camera ($180) resulting in sun baked “cataracts” after 6-7 years of southern sun exposure.Ring doesn’t offer replacement parts, so after several searches and watching a few YouTube videos, I ordered this $12 lens instead of dropping $180 for a whole new camera.The threads on this lens are longer and I needed to “hot wire” it in the house and screw the lens in about 5 full revolutions with the lens printing at the bottom (as pictured) to get the focus right.(Used the live view on the Ring app to fine tune the focus.)Made a couple trips to the local hardware store & spent another $4 for thread sealant to hold the focus & for weatherproofing, $3 for some #18 butt splices (clipped the white & black wires in-line when I took it down) as well as a couple replacement nuts ($2) for remounting to the garage (the old Ring fasteners were stripped out.)Check the before/after pics for the results.

I was bummed my older Ring light cam was down. The image was shot from years of direct sunlight in the evening. Watched a YouTube video and bought this and bam! Back to live and I saved my $200 Ring cam!

Fits the Ring floodlight camera lens perfectly. The Ring camera lens became cloudy. Bought this product as a replacement lens based on the other reviews. Removed the existing lens from the Ring camera using a small screw driver. The top portion of the lens popped up and the rest of the lens plastic was removed by unscrewing it. No need to use a drill bit. Installed the new lens. The lens has to be adjusted to set the focus. Filled the gap with silicone. I would be happy if this new lens lasts for at least 5 years.

Great replacement for ring floodlight camera!

Fits. But ya gonna wanna put some silicon or hot glue to keep it in place after you adjust it

Same as some of the others, I used this lens to fix a ring floodlight cam. I tried two or three different lenses. The only downside of this one at least on my camera is I can’t screw it in all the way or it goes blurry so I can only screw it in about halfway so I just need to seal around that lens to keep the water out. I did notice that every lens I bought off Amazon had deeper threads or the thread section was longer than the factory one which is probably why I can’t screw it in all the way. But that’s much better than dealing with Ring and getting a new camera.

WOW!!! I was a little skeptical at first but this easy fix is great! The first picture shows what the old lens was providing on my ring spotlight camera, Gen 1. The camera is about 8 years old, on a south facing wall, so it took quite a beating from the sun.The second picture is what this new lens provides after replacement. It looks like the first lens was a wide angle so I might try that type of lens to see what the image looks like.Great product. Easy to install. The old lens was so deteriorated that I was able to remove it with just finger pressure. I did not need to drill it out as others described. Once the new lens is in you do need to focus it then glue it down so it stays in focus.

I read reviews that said this lens will work as a replacement for the ring floodlight camera. It does. Though not an exact replacement, I cut a gasket out of a sheet of cork I bought from Ace hardware and that made for a good seal at the right focal point.
