TP-Link has released its Tapo C410 KIT solar-powered security camera to bring sustainability to home surveillance with just 45 minutes of sunlight exposure per day.

The Tapo C410 KIT’s internal 180-day battery is recharged via an integrated solar panel for 24/7 security while the panel itself is made part of the mount for a clean and simple wire-free install. Plus IP65 dust and weatherproofing mean the newest Tapo family member can be positioned outside, in any reasonably sheltered position.

Tapo owners can connect the Tapo A201 solar panel to add solar power to an installed camera (this requires an extra mounting point and a wired connection to the camera). The solar panel is integrated into the C410 KIT  mount with all power routed internally for a streamlined, true wire-free look.

The Tapo C410 KIT boasts a 2K 3MP sensor, and captures more detail than a traditional 1080p sensor. Photos and videos alike are clearer and important fine details such as faces and small text may be easier to make out.

At night, instead of grainy black and white footage, the Tapo C410 KIT boosts colours in low light, for a more natural image that makes objects easy to identify and enhances your security. Supporting nighttime operation, built-in spotlights on the C410 KIT activate automatically in low-light conditions and can be activated manually when required.

Smart AI accurately identifies people and notifies users via the Tapo app, reducing false alarms and annoying unnecessary alerts. This functionality is included and does not require a monthly subscription.

For even greater security capability, the Tapo C425 and C425 KIT are also available. This camera has a 2K QHD sensor and 300 days of battery life, and the standalone Tapo C425 comes with a sleek magnetic attachment for a true wire-free design that makes positioning easy and recharging convenient. The Tapo C425 KIT uses an integrated solar panel for eco-friendly security and the convenience of solar-powered recharging.
