The various Protectly outdoor security cameras differ primarily in image quality, battery life, storage capacity, and additional features like a solar panel, lighting, or siren. Models come with 2K, 3K, or even 5MP resolutions. The higher the resolution, the sharper the images. The 3K and 5MP cameras offer more detail, which is useful for recognizing faces or license plate numbers, for example.

Additionally, some models have a built-in solar panel or the option to connect a solar panel. This allows you to use the camera completely wirelessly, without having to charge it constantly. Other models have built-in lights, a siren, or an automatic tracking function for added security. The connection also varies: some cameras have a fixed cable, while others are completely wireless.

Some models are designed more for compact applications (such as balconies or doorways), while others are suitable for wider areas. Consider your needs carefully: are you primarily looking for an overview, long battery life, sharp images, or extra security features? This way, you can easily choose the model that's right for you.

A wireless security camera operates on Wi-Fi and has a built-in rechargeable battery, so you don't need any cables or complicated installations. You install the camera by charging it, connecting it to your smartphone via the CloudEdge app, and then mounting it in a suitable location. The app guides you through the process step by step, entirely in Dutch.

For installation, all you need is a smartphone with the app and a location with a stable Wi-Fi connection. The package includes everything you need to mount the camera, including plugs, screws, and a mounting bracket. You'll have a live feed in minutes. No technician or technical expertise required. Thanks to its wireless operation, you can place it anywhere, even without a nearby power outlet.

A security camera with a solar panel offers incredible convenience and durability. You no longer have to worry about charging the battery, because the solar panel ensures your camera is constantly recharged. This is especially ideal if you install the camera in a location that's difficult to access, such as on a facade or in the garden.

What's more, it's more environmentally friendly and saves you money on electricity in the long run. Protectly solar panels are compact, waterproof (IP65), and easy to install with the included mounting bracket. They're rotatable, so you can always aim them at the sun. Even with a few hours of sunshine a day, your camera remains fully operational. This gives you year-round security without any worries or hassles.

Yes, Protectly outdoor security cameras are specifically designed to function in all weather conditions. They have an IP66 or IP65 water and dust resistance rating, meaning they can withstand rain, snow, dust, and even strong winds. The rugged housing ensures that the inside of the camera remains well-protected at all times.

Even in frost or extreme temperatures, the camera continues to function properly. This makes them particularly suitable for winter use or in open areas exposed to the elements. However, it's always wise to place the camera in a sheltered spot if possible, for example, under an eave or overhang. This further extends their lifespan, although they can also be left fully open.

Yes, all Protectly wireless security cameras work with the CloudEdge app, allowing you to watch live footage at any time. Once you've connected the camera via Wi-Fi, you can access live footage directly through the app on your smartphone. This works anywhere in the world, as long as your phone has an internet connection.

You can even set up motion alerts, so you can watch the scene as soon as something happens. You'll see what's happening in real time, whether you're at home or on vacation. This feature also makes the camera ideal for monitoring children, pets, or vulnerable areas around your home. Everything is clearly explained in Dutch in the app.

The battery life of a Protectly security camera depends on usage. With average use (a few notifications per day and occasional live viewing), the built-in 5200 mAh battery lasts about 2 to 3 months on a full charge. With more intensive use, for example, with frequent live viewing or notifications, the battery life will be slightly shorter.

If you choose a model with a solar panel or connect a separate solar panel, you usually won't need to charge it at all. It automatically recharges the battery as soon as sunlight appears, allowing you to use it wirelessly for up to 365 days without interruption. This makes it ideal for long-term protection without the hassle of chargers or cables.

Motion detection works via a smart sensor that registers movement within a specific range and field of view. As soon as the camera detects motion, it automatically starts recording, and you'll receive an immediate notification on your phone. You can adjust the detection sensitivity in the app, allowing you to choose whether the camera should respond to small movements or only to larger objects.

Reliability is high, especially with the 3K and 5MP models featuring AI recognition. These can distinguish between people, animals, and vehicles, reducing false alarms. This is ideal if you have a lot of cats or birds in your garden, for example, but only want to detect people. Setting zones where the camera can and cannot respond also helps limit unwanted alerts.

Yes, Protectly security cameras are equipped with advanced night vision technology. Most models have full-color night vision thanks to built-in LED lighting. This ensures clear, colorful images even in complete darkness. Other models use infrared lighting for black-and-white nighttime recordings, which still provides excellent detail and sharpness.

Even in minimal lighting, you can still easily recognize faces, clothing, and movements. This is a major advantage if you want to be able to rely on your camera at night. And because Night Mode activates automatically, you don't have to do anything. Your images remain usable day and night.

These terms indicate the sharpness of the camera's image. A 2K resolution means you already have a very clear image, clearly displaying faces, license plates, and other details. 3K is a step sharper and is typically used for cameras with 3MP sensors. This allows you to zoom in even further without losing quality.

The 5MP models offer some of the highest image quality in this price range. They deliver near-3K Ultra HD images, ideal for monitoring large areas or for truly razor-sharp footage. Think of being able to zoom in on a person across a driveway without the image becoming grainy. More pixels simply means more detail, and that's often exactly what you're looking for in a security camera.

With two-way audio, you can talk and listen simultaneously through the app. The camera has a built-in microphone and speaker. So, if you see someone at your door in the live feed, you can talk to them directly on your phone. Conversely, you can also hear what's happening near the camera.

This is very useful for contacting delivery drivers, visitors, or even in emergencies. Even if you have pets or children in the garden, you can use the speaker to say something or offer reassurance. The sound quality is surprisingly good for an outdoor camera, especially if you don't mount it too high. It gives you an extra layer of control and remote interaction.

Yes, the CloudEdge app makes it easy to manage multiple security cameras simultaneously. You add each camera once, and then you can view them individually or all at once in a single overview. This is useful if you want to secure multiple sides of your house, garden, or business premises, for example.

You can also grant access to multiple users, allowing you and your family or colleagues to view the footage together or receive notifications. Everything is clearly displayed in Dutch, so even if you have multiple cameras, it remains intuitive and easy to use. No hassle with different apps or login credentials.

Every Protectly security camera comes with a sturdy mounting kit consisting of wall plugs, screws, and an adjustable bracket. First, decide where you want to place the camera—ideally at eye level or slightly higher—and aim it at the area you want to protect. Make sure there's a good Wi-Fi signal in that location.

You screw the mount to a wall, fence, pole, or ceiling, then place the camera in the bracket and turn it to the desired orientation. The brackets are rotatable so you can perfectly align the camera. Some models have a fixed cord, so if you use one, make sure you can neatly feed the cord through a slightly larger drilled hole. Within 10 minutes, your camera will be securely in place, ready to use.
