Tapo/Kasa (TP-Link) - Kasa KD110

I have a Kasa doorbell - local storage, simple app - clear/bright video up close - not amazing long distance but you can see lots still.

I have been extremely satisfied with my TPlink Kasa KD110.

Tapo wired doorbell with a Tapo hub for indoor storage. Just be aware it won’t do 90 degree image rotation, only 180, so it has to be mounted vertically (portrait) and not horizontally (landscape) to get the proper orientation of the image.

Tapo is good if you don't want to pay Eufy prices, but they suffer from the shortcoming of storing footage on an SD card in the doorbell unless you subscribe. However, the doorbell has an anti-theft mode with a fairly loud alarm, and the subscription is £28 per year for a single doorbell/camera which isn't bad at all.

Been absolutely loving my tp link and the price was too good to pass up

Tapo, presumably. Better news here. https://www.reddit.com/r/CasualIreland/s/y8WuzmJJNC

That's great news. I didn't realise that you could keep limited access to the cloud service without paying. This is important to maintain access to images of someone who decides to break the camera, with the memory card, off the mounting. Tapo ofc.

The doorbell is great, but a bit big

I have some Tapo stuff, which was cheap and it's grand. The app can alert me and record etc. It doesn't need a subscription.

Yes, Tapo ones are as good as Ring and around the same price to buy but are subscription free.

I have a Tapo, cloud is optional videos can be stored on an SD card in the indoor part of the system which I do

I have a tapo doorbell, it stores everything on an SD card inside the box plugged into my router instead of paying for a subscription and as far as I know does everything else a ring does.

I made the switch from Google Nest to Tapo after my doorbell broke after a year of frustrating ownership. Everything works great. No monthly fee and uses local storage. Highly recommend. I found it equivalent or better than Nest for all features.

I’ve been on Tapo for probably 6 months now. I have had no issues so far. Same functionality as Nest, but my Nest would run out of battery every 2 weeks, take half the day to charge, and had a shitty mount and would wobble, AND it was double the price with a $10 a month subscription.
