Altas PT Ultra

Anything Reolink is my suggestion. I got the Altas PT Ultra myself for the back garden and it’s top notch.. quality is perfect day or night, charged by solar and runs 24/7. App is really easy to use, lots of features and easy to access past events. No subscription required as it records to an SD car

Tell us how you really feel... The Reolink Altas Ultra PT sounds like a beta that was released to the public as if it were a production unit. I thought only Eufy Security did that.

I’d look into a camera with local storage on an SD card and a battery backup, or better yet, a Reolink Altas PT Ultra. It records 24/7 to an internal SD card even if the WiFi is cut. Also, hide a trail cam (the kind hunters use) high up in a tree, they’re battery-powered, camouflage, and don't need

Reolink Altas PT Ultra. But you can only really use this one if you have really good lighting at night time because it is color night vision camera. Otherwise you'd have to get a trackmix battery powered version. But if this is going to be used for critical surveillance, and you can drill a couple o

For anyone reading this in 2026 I've had my Altas PT Ultra for just over a year and even with the latest firmware, I'm still constantly having weird charging issues. After MUCH back and forth with Reolink, I was finally given an RMA # to return. However, it started charging again after so I decided

I have my PoE cameras (front porch and above garage) and NVR in the garage connected to a mesh router point (ASUS Zen Wifi AX). I have one ASUS main router BE-98Pro, and 2 additional mesh access points (including the one in the garage). I also have a PoE switch out there. It works pretty well. Since

Ok, if you want to learn the hard way... You already want something to bridge so you will have to go with Reolink, because it is the best brand for Wi-Fi cameras. Prefer plugged in Wi-Fi cameras and avoid using battery powered. If you have a floodlight you want to replace, then replace it with Reoli

Ah thanks for mentioning the monitor for Eufy, I had forgotten about that. So yeah, if you buy that I'm guessing it would also be a viable option. So reolink system with home hub pro or Eufy system with e10 monitor should do (once that one is available). Also if this is your first time using wireles

Battery powered cameras (or wireless) can't record 24/7, they record only motion/detection events. The only exception to the rule is the Reolink Altas PT Ultra with 12w solar panel, which can do 24/7 to some degree but it won't be perfect, nor reliable (anything Wi-Fi is not reliable) and you will m

The NVR is required if you want additional capabilities and/or some way to store more footage. Without the NVR you'd have to go with PoE Cameras + PoE switch + microSD setup. The problem is that normally cameras will hold up to 256 GB microSD and with that you can only have 1-2 days of 24/7 recordin
