Pretty good deal for $135.41 when 10% Price Beat with Officeworks or Bunnings (via Special Order).

I just did a special order with the Bunnings live chat for $135.41 pickup in 3ish days. Not bad.

Amazing deal if you don’t wana fuss around with cables, 180 day battery life, and have existing tapo tp link products to link it up.

    i have one its great
    no point paying for the sub, it gives you nothing special

    • srnoz on 20/07/2024 - 18:47

      How responsive is it? I've got the Swann. By the time I answer on phone, delivery driver is long gone. More than 15 sec delay every single time.

        Few seconds delay for me

        I get notifications almost instantly (1-3 secs) when I walk out the door. This includes wake up time.
        I have found doorbell press to be very responsive.

      • Wiadro on 20/07/2024 - 19:39

        Maybe 1-2 sec delay.
        I don’t really count it
        Goes ding, app pushes notification and I walk to the door.

        I only have the camera setup when someone hits the door bell

        • srnoz on 20/07/2024 - 20:23

          Sorry I was referring to answering on the phone when I'm not home.
          Swann is pretty quick as door bell. But when I answer on phone, it is very late to initiate two way communication.

        • N1ghthawk on 22/07/2024 - 22:59

          @Wiadro would you please confirm that there is no thumbnail (image) accompanied with the doorbell notification, unless you are subscribed to their plan.

      I've got a ring doorbell. Works good but hate paying the subscription.

      Anyone know how easy it is to replace with another wired doorbell that doesn't need subscription for recorded video?

      Also any recommendations for a wired doorbell?

    • ferguson on 20/07/2024 - 20:32

      Agreed. Got mine in the Bunnings sale around November/December last year for around $120.

      Love it.

      Perfectly fine without subscription (which was one key reason I got this one).

    Is there anywhere they sell the door bell separately? I am looking to buy tplink cameras that comes with hub…

    • PluggaWA on 20/07/2024 - 18:51

      Also looking for this purchase option. I have the hub already.

      • prankster on 21/07/2024 - 01:00
        +2

        Can I ask a noob question but why/what’s the point of the Tp link hub?

        Like I’ve got 9 tapo cameras (5 external and 4 internal) and it’s just all added to the tapo app so why would I need a hub?

        • PluggaWA on 21/07/2024 - 11:28

          I have a couple of Tapo motion sensors that require the hub. The hub is also required to make the doorbell sound. I have a camera setup (temporarily) outside that triggers the hub to play the doorbell when a person is detected.

        • cerealJay on 21/07/2024 - 16:21

          what’s the point of the Tp link hub

          The point of the hub is to store the video footage. If you didn't have the hub, where do you expect the video clips would be saved?

          I guess the other reason is battery life. The hub connects to the doorbell with a lower power wi-fi protocol compared with your home wi-fi. This lets you review video clips without any issues when away from home, because the doorbell is not involved in that process.

          • prankster on 21/07/2024 - 17:44

            @cerealJay: Each of the tapo cameras i have has a sd memory card so it’s storage footage there. With a hub I assume it has limited storage as well too

            • caprimulgus on 21/07/2024 - 18:04

              @prankster: The hub has a micro sd slot as well.

              I guess one reason for the hub is for external cameras which can be stolen from outside. If the storage is in the external camera, someone stealing your car or stealing packages off your front porch might knock your camera down too, so you dont have a recording of them. With recording on the hub, it doesnt matter if your cameras get taken

              But it doesnt help you if they break into your house and take your hub too!

              • prankster on 21/07/2024 - 19:14

                @caprimulgus: Yeah agree with your points. I guess the only deterrent you can do with the tapo externa cameras is put an notification to the app if anyone is trying to take it off plus the thief would have to quickly take of the screws which doesn’t take long if they are fast.

                • cerealJay on 22/07/2024 - 00:48

                  @prankster: The other obvious reason is the chime. Your security camera doesn't need a separate chime, but your doorbell does.

                  • prankster on 22/07/2024 - 09:20

                    @cerealJay: the D130 which is wired comes with a chime - i just dont know if i can install it lol

  • Runatme on 20/07/2024 - 18:10

    Yeah this is a good doorbell. My only frustration is it doesn't record constantly. Only movement detections. Otherwise, camera is good quality and doorbell works as it should.

    • bircoe on 20/07/2024 - 19:35
      +5

      This is the trade off with battery powered cameras, if it had constant recording I'd guess it would only last a few days if that.

    Good deal. Just the H200 is 55 so thats 80-100 for the doorbell cam

  • milobob on 20/07/2024 - 18:30

    Am I correct in assuming the chime in in the Hub - so you need the Hub to be centrally located to chime the house (or your mobile)?

    • Bonesaw321 on 20/07/2024 - 18:33

      I’m not 100% sure, but in the Tapo app I’m sure you can edit it to chime or notify you on your phone , I’ll be doing both. Also as long both can access WiFi doesn’t have to be that centrally located.

      • milobob on 20/07/2024 - 19:06

        Thanks! Is the Hub connected via Wifi or ethernet - looks like ethernet to me :(

    Looks not bad but I’m liking the Eufy one at the moment.

  • tanzy on 20/07/2024 - 19:27

    I've had mine for about 6 months now. I struggle to get any where near 180 days battery life (10-20 detections a day) tried different batteries with the same result. But other than that it's pretty solid.

    • RnO on 20/07/2024 - 19:37

      Hey man! How many days on average do you get on the batteries? TIA

      • tanzy on 20/07/2024 - 19:51
        +2

        I can probably get 1.5 months if I'm lucky. You can set detection zones with AI now which helped reduce the wake up (and battery drain) to note I'm north east facing so the summer sun cooks the batteries which is another factor that drains it.

    • dafatha on 20/07/2024 - 19:44

      Your settings might be sensitive and with long clip lengths.

    • ferguson on 20/07/2024 - 20:42
      +3

      I get maybe 3 months out of mine.

      • 12 detections today, which is about typical for me.

      • Motion detection = off

      • Person detection = on
      • Pet detection = off

      • Vehicle detection = off

      • Clip length 30 seconds

      • Retrigger 5 seconds

      If you have a lot of movement within the viewing range, swaying plants and things, that will also drain your battery more.

  • 80024 on 20/07/2024 - 19:31

    I bought this last year around Christmas time to replace a Ring doorbell. I like it much better than the Ring.
    Battery life is nowhere near 180 days - maybe if you turn all detection and notifications off. I have mine set on the lower end of the detection sensitivity, and have to charge it twice so far… its now on 59% after the second charge. Expect around 3 months from a single charge.
    Note you will also need a storage card for the hub, unless you plan to pay a monthly fee to TP Link for cloud storage.

    • cusburger on 20/07/2024 - 19:35

      I was considering the Ring or this, what makes this one better than the Ring?

    • bircoe on 20/07/2024 - 19:39

      I have the Reolink POE camera that I use with an NVR and love it, ethernet is much more reliable than wifi and being powered over ethernet means 1 cable, trade off is you also need a switch with POE and either be able to or pay someone to run a cable for you, I did it myself and already had POE switch and spare ethernet cable so didn't cost me any extra. But the camera is great, good quality image/video, has SD card slot for local recording, can be used with a proper NVR or you can use it with a software NVR.

    • caprimulgus on 20/07/2024 - 19:59

      I use those in my other Tapo cameras. Should be fine for this too, assuming you arent getting some obscene amount of motion activations going on (ie. have it facing a busy street, or you run a 24 hour brothel / crack den!).

      • Surtr on 20/07/2024 - 20:13
        +1

        Thank you! Might have to just disable the auto record during popular business hours (1am-5am)

      • Osiris on 20/07/2024 - 20:14

        Windering how long would 128gb last before being filled up you think?

        • caprimulgus on 20/07/2024 - 20:35
          +1

          Will depend on the recording quality and amount of detections - but my Tapo C210 that faces the street, and probably has a similar amount of activations as a front door camera would, has used 16.5Gb in 3.5 months.

          If you google the recording specs, it should give you a rough amount of hours that a 128Gb card would hold for thia camera. And just divide it by an estimated number of recordings per day. Wild ballpark, we probably get 5-10 detections per day, of 1 to 2 minutes (but mostly closer to 1min).

          (Or better to ask someone with this doorbell camera specifically to ask how quickly they fill up their card.)

        • ferguson on 20/07/2024 - 20:47
          +1

          I have about a dozen detections per day, and a 30 sec max clip length.

          I've used 11GB since the start of the year.

          • Osiris on 20/07/2024 - 20:51

            @ferguson: Thanks Capri and Ferguson, gives me a broad idea.

            128 should be fine for my needs to grabbed the sammy that srutr posted too

      I have the endurance sd memory cards mainly coz I live in corner house with medium traffic so I record 24/7 so I can see anything that happens.

      For the 128gb I get a weeks worth of recording

      • Surtr on 21/07/2024 - 01:23

        Thanks prankster, does it just overwrite the oldest recordings / Purge automatically or once it runs out of space you have to manually delete the old recordings?

        • prankster on 21/07/2024 - 08:00

    Is the Tapo app more responsive to view the doorbell when the button is pressed than the ring door bell app? I find there’s quite delay with ring to get to video feed?

    Also can this show video feed automatically on an echo show when the door bell button is pressed like the ring does?
