Finally, Yi released their first outdoor security camera. There are a lot of you guys have waited for this. I made a couple of videos a while back and reviewed 2 outdoor cases designed for a dropcam or the older nest cameras that can fit the Yi Home camera but both of them are now out of stock and I guess they are not manufactured anymore.
Yi Outdoor Security Camera - amzn.to/2zbEd1G
So, this camera is the answer for those that are wanting the video clarity of the Yi in a weatherproof outdoor design.
Let's check out the camera's features:
It has a 1080p resolution and records at 20 frames per second
It has a 110 degrees wide angle lens
It is Weatherproof..so rain - it is IP65 rated, sun or snow...it has an operating temperature of up to 122 degrees fahrenheit and can go as low as 5 degrees.
It has nightvision with 12 infrared LEDs that can reach up to 50 feet
It has 2 way audio
It has a deterrent alarm - now, this is motion triggered and cannot be activated manually..I'll show you later on how it sounds.
It has 10 feet cable - which is in the short side. You will have limited mounting options with this.
It uses highly sensitive algorithms for motion detection...they are not using a PIR sensor but uses the camera's footage plus software in determining if there is a motion activity or not.
Now, Yi marketed this camera with their cloud storage which you will see all over the box and their flier but it doesn't mention anything that it records to a micro SD card also. We will talk more about that later.
