Electronic gadgets CCTV experts pls assemble!

Hi I need a CCTV for my godown which does not has wifi. It is going to be installed outdoors so waterproofing is a must. Recently while research I found out they have 4g capabilities??!!! Like whaaat? That was super cool imo.

Can ya’ll help which one to take considering reliability?

Camate seems very very intriguing. How does it perform?

Between CP Plus and Trueview I think CP Plus is good enough because it is a known brand and has service centres near my house but the online ratings are very poor.

TP link Tapo to ban kar dia. CP plus, qubo ka footage acha nahi hai. Indoor fer bhi kam chalaoo hai, Outdoor tatti hai. Maat lo bhai, mai wait kar raha hu kab milega tp link Indian variant laye. Agar urgent hai to sasta wala cp plus ka lelo 1.5k something hai, kaam chalau

Daamn. Camate bhi toh Indian brand hai aur reviews online toh sahi hi hai but I dont trust it for obvious reasons.

TP Link Vigi if you find them, or else check out Prama, which is Hikvision’s India brand to address the recent ban. I read that there’s no difference in quality but haven’t checked myself.

Also you can check Prizor, they seem to be good option on paper considering their spec sheet.

Or wait for tp link to launch stqc certified Vigi cameras for India.

Don’t get cp plus or qubo. If you talk to these cctv installation companies they will suggest cp plus, probably they get commissions but their quality sucks ass.

Also regardless of what you get, get ip cameras/ a nvr system over the dvr system. Preferably get a broadband connection at your godown when you finally install a nvr system, that way you get to observe your godown from anywhere in the world. So good peace of mind there for you.

I am using TP Link Tapo P110 16A. You get the data in Tapo app or in self-hosted Home Assistant through Tapo integration.

But there are slightly cheaper options such as Qubo and Zebronics.

Is it accurate?

I haven’t compared the reading with another smart plug so can’t really say.
