hi In continuous recording mode where is the output stored, if on the SD card how long is recorded? Thanks Carl

Thank you for your question!

How Continuous Recording Works

In continuous recording mode, the camera saves video footage directly to the microSD card (if one is installed) or to the cloud (if you have a cloud subscription set up – £36 per year!).

How long can it record on the SD card?

The recording time depends on the size of the microSD card you use and your video quality settings. The camera supports microSD cards up to 128GB (included).

  • With a 128GB card: You can typically store around 10–14 days of continuous HD video before the oldest footage is automatically overwritten (loop recording).
  • Lower video quality settings allow for even longer storage, while higher quality or 24/7 recording uses up space more quickly.

Summary

  • Continuous recordings are stored on the SD card (up to 128GB supported).
  • When the card is full, the camera will overwrite the oldest footage automatically (loop recording).
  • You can also use cloud storage as an alternative or backup.

If you have any other questions or need help setting up your camera or storage, just let us know!

Best regards,
Nath

What's difference of 4G camera and WIFI camera?

Difference Between 4G Cameras and Wi-Fi Cameras

Connectivity

Wi-Fi Camera: Wi-Fi cameras connect to the internet through a local Wi-Fi network, typically within a home or business. They rely on the availability of Wi-Fi signals and are limited to the range of the Wi-Fi network or any Wi-Fi extenders used.
4G Camera: 4G cameras have a built-in cellular modem and SIM card, allowing them to connect to the internet using cellular data networks. They are not confined to the range of a Wi-Fi network and can operate in areas with cellular coverage, making them suitable for remote locations or areas without Wi-Fi access.

Location Flexibility

Wi-Fi Camera: Wi-Fi cameras are best suited for locations within the range of a Wi-Fi network. They may require additional equipment, such as Wi-Fi extenders, to expand coverage to areas further from the main network.
4G Camera: 4G cameras offer greater flexibility in terms of location, as they can operate in areas with cellular coverage. This makes them ideal for outdoor, remote, or temporary installations where Wi-Fi may not be available or reliable.

Installation and Setup

Wi-Fi Camera: Wi-Fi cameras require a local Wi-Fi network for initial setup and ongoing operation. Installation involves connecting the camera to the Wi-Fi network and configuring settings within the network's range.
4G Camera: 4G cameras are typically easier to set up and install, as they do not rely on a local Wi-Fi network. Once powered on, they can establish a connection to the cellular network and operate independently.

Data Costs and Plans

Wi-Fi Camera: Wi-Fi cameras do not incur cellular data costs, but they rely on the availability and bandwidth of the local Wi-Fi network.
4G Camera: 4G cameras require a cellular data plan with a mobile carrier, and ongoing data costs are associated with transmitting video and other data over the cellular network.

Use Cases

Wi-Fi Camera: Wi-Fi cameras are commonly used for indoor and outdoor surveillance in residential and commercial settings where a reliable Wi-Fi network is available.
4G Camera: 4G cameras are well-suited for outdoor, remote, or temporary surveillance applications, construction sites, rural areas, and locations without reliable Wi-Fi coverage.

Both types of cameras offer unique advantages based on their connectivity and operational requirements, and the choice between Wi-Fi and 4G cameras depends on the specific needs and constraints of the surveillance or monitoring application.
