Tapo provides both mains-powered and battery-powered wireless/wifi security cameras. Tapo’s battery-powered wireless security cameras offer flexibility and easy installation without the need for power outlets. Some key points to consider:

Battery-Powered Cameras: Fully wireless and ideal for areas without power access. Our rechargeable batteries last up to 6 months on a full charge, depending on usage and settings.

Solar-Powered Cameras: Some cameras, like Tapo SolarCam TC82 KIT, use solar panels to recharge, reducing the need for manual charging.

Hybrid Options: All Tapo’s standalone battery cameras can connect to a Tapo solar panel for non-stop power.

The data usage of a wireless security camera depends on factors such as resolution, frame rate, compression, and whether it records continuously or only when motion is detected. Cameras that record only when motion is detected use far less data, making them ideal for reducing usage. To manage data effectively, Tapo cameras offer features like motion-triggered recording, efficient compression, and resolution adjustments, ensuring flexibility based on your data plan and storage needs.

The best security camera depends on your needs, but it should offer a combination of high performance, reliability, and advanced features. Here’s what to consider:

• Best for Resolution: A 4K security camera for ultra-clear video and maximum detail.
• Best for Indoor Use: Compact cameras with motion detection, two-way audio, and night vision.
• Best for Outdoor Use: Weatherproof cameras with wide-angle views, motion tracking, and strong night vision.
• Best for Detection: Smart AI accurately identifies people, pets, vehicles, packages, and even baby crying, sending timely notifications to users as needed.
• Best for Smart Features: Cameras that integrate seamlessly with Alexa, Google Assistant, or other smart home systems.
• Best for Flexibility: Cameras with both local and cloud storage options, such as Tapo models, to suit different preferences.

Tapo offers a wide range of security cameras, combining affordability with premium features, making it easy to find the perfect match for your home or business.
