Transcripts
already installed the W7 camera
I've installed many other cameras
around my house
such as the
light bulb camera
that you guys see back here
that one I've installed that one as well
as the R2
so if you guys could tell up there I
have a ring then I have the R2 the R2
looks much better than the ring just
letting you know so the W7
I went ahead
and installed it
somewhere where I can see since it's a
360 camera I installed it somewhere
where we would be able to see it the
most
if you're not sure if you guys see it
but
it's up there
and that camera is able
that camera is actually able to capture
the entire front yard
neighbors uh neighbors you are at the
street
um it's able to capture pretty much
everything here
now that one is a wired camera right so
if you guys haven't seen the unboxing
and the first impressions on the camera
um go check out my first video on my
Amazon store
where I unboxed it and I did the initial
testing on it
but that camera is wired so what I did
is
the wire is about eight feet that hole
is closer to like 14 feet so what I did
I ordered a Savory I think it's called a
savory
uh cable so it's a USB a cable connector
uh female to male
and then I think that one was like 14
feet or something like that so it did
have some extra slack that I could use
right and I ran it down the pole and
that's how I was able to get the camera
up there the camera is attached to this
extension cable and then that extension
cable is attached
to the AC power cord on the bottom and
that's how I'm able to get the camera
all the way up there so high
so if that's something that you guys are
interested in and you haven't you had
not thought about
doing that and there you guys go but
anyways that's pretty much the
installation how I did the installation
on the W7
um as you guys can tell from this um
from this vertical video
that I have on the side it's just pretty
much to go on the App say you want to
add one add a new device right wait for
the device to be flashing you can put
the device and flashing on the camera
setup
um
once you take out the camera from the
box for the first time it's already
going to be in that state so you only
have to make it that way if you're gonna
reinstall it somewhere else and you do
that by the power button or the reset
button on the bottom where the TF card
goes right
so once you do that just go through the
application as you guys saw it's going
to ask you for your Wi-Fi password and
then it's going to give you a QR code
the only thing you have to do and this
is one of the things that I love the
most about Juan's view I'm pretty sure
they're not the only one who do it but
one of the best things that I've seen
one once you do is you get a QR code you
put it in front of the camera
camera installs pretty much itself so it
goes through the entire process of
looking for the Wi-Fi installing um you
know linking up to the Wi-Fi and then
finally it it
um it adds itself to the to the
application where you're able to see it
and you're good to go there
so so far so good I've had the camera
now for I would say a good three four
weeks and it's been great the only one
gripe
the only one gripe that I have with it
is the fact that the motion detection is
General
all right so for example for the 360
camera the light bulb one the 360 camera
you can select what you want it
to respond to so if it's a person if
it's a cat if it's a package
it will it will notify you depending on
what it sees
the uh what I've noticed is the R2 does
not allow you to have an area per se the
R2 only allows you to see how far away
from the camera it will detect emotion
but again that motion is General so it's
any motion a car a plant that moves
that's close enough to the camera will
set off the the motion it's very similar
to the to the W7
so that's something to keep in mind uh
you do have Smart notifications if you
do sign up for their cloud coverage
that's something you're interested in
interested in you can go ahead and sign
up for that cloud coverage and that will
give you much finer motion notifications
that you can select to receive but
anyways that's pretty much the review on
the W7 a Wong's view outdoor camera
um so far so good so if you guys like
this video please make sure to look at
my other videos on my Amazon storefront
