Frequently Asked Questions - Solar Panel Charger for eufyCams eufy

How to install the solar panel?

First, attach the mounting bracket to a wall or roof using the provided screws. Then screw the solar panel onto the bracket. Make sure it is securely fastened and orient it towards the south (Northern Hemisphere) with a tilt angle of 30° for maximum sun exposure.

How to connect the solar panel to my eufyCam camera?

Choose the appropriate adapter for your camera model. Slide the sealing gasket over the USB connector, plug it into the camera's USB port, then secure the gasket to protect from moisture. For eufyCam 1/2/2 Pro models, screw the threaded bolt into the mounting bracket.

What is the maximum distance between the solar panel and the camera?

The solar panel and camera must be within a maximum distance of 4 meters from each other. Route the cable along the center of the panel to avoid tangles.

How to orient the panel for maximum efficiency?

For optimal efficiency, orient the panel towards the south if you are in the Northern Hemisphere, or towards the north if you are in the Southern Hemisphere. Tilt it at a 30° angle and choose a location that receives the best possible sunlight throughout the year.

What to do if the solar panel is not charging my camera?

First, check that the panel is correctly oriented and exposed to direct sunlight. Make sure the USB cable is properly connected and the sealing gasket is in place. In the eufy Security app, go to Camera Settings > Power Manager > Power Source and select "Solar Panel". Also check that the firmware is up to date.

How to set up the app for the solar panel?

Open the eufy Security app, go to Camera Settings > Device Info > Check Camera Firmware to update the firmware. Then go to Camera Settings > Power Manager > Power Source and select "Solar Panel". The setup is complete.

Is the solar panel waterproof?

Yes, the solar panel is designed for outdoor use and comes with a sealing gasket to protect the USB connection from moisture. However, for maximum durability, avoid submerging it in water.

Can I use the solar panel with cameras other than eufyCam?

The solar panel is specifically designed for eufyCam series cameras (1, 2, 2 Pro, 2C, 2C Pro, eufyCam E, eufyCam Solo). Use with other brands is not guaranteed.

How to clean the solar panel?

Regularly wipe the panel surface with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust and debris that could reduce solar capture efficiency. Do not use abrasive products.

Does the panel work in cloudy weather?

The solar panel produces less energy in cloudy weather or low sunlight. It is designed to work primarily in direct sunlight. In cloudy weather, the camera will use its internal battery, but the panel will continue to provide a trickle charge if brightness is sufficient.

2/ How the Solar Panel Works

The Solar Panel works with our eufyCam series security cameras. When placed in direct sunlight, the Solar Panel provides energy to your connected eufyCams. To get the maximum amount of sunlight exposure, install the Solar Panel on the roof or wall outside of your house.

3 / Positioning the Solar Panel

While positioning the Solar Panel, keep the following factors in mind. These factors may affect the solar panel efficiency:

1. Weather conditions will impact the levels of energy produced
2. Dirt or debris on the panels can negatively impact the intake of sunlight
3. The amount of sunlight that the solar panel receives

To optimize your solar panel efficiency, identify an optimal position on your roof or wall for installation.

1. Select a location where the solar panel can get the most sunlight throughout the year
2. Position your solar panel south-facing (in the Northern Hemisphere) or north-facing (in the Southern Hemisphere), and tilt the panel at a 30° angel.
3. Regularly wipe/clean your solar panel to keep it free of debris and dirt.
4. Keep your solar panel and eufyCam within 13 ft / 4m of each other.

4/ Installing the Solar Panel

Before installing the Solar Panel, take down your eufyCam from the wall.

1. Place the mounting bracket against a wall or roof and secure it with the included screws.
2. For walls or roofs that are made out of hard materials such as concrete, brick, or stucco, insert anchors first.
3. Anchors are not needed for wooden walls or roofs.

1. Screw the Solar Panel to the mounting bracket and make sure it is well secured.
2. Angle the Solar Panel on the mounting bracket to receive the largest amount of sunlight. A 30° tilt is recommended.

5 / Connecting the Solar Panel to eufyCam

Select the appropriate installation package for your eufyCam.

1. If you own a eufyCam 1 / 2 / 2 Pro, ensure it is using the screw mounting bracket rather than a magnetic one.
2. Use the waterproof gasket as support when connecting the solar panel to your camera. The gasket protects your camera from exposed moisture and other elements that may damage the camera.
3. For eufyCam 1 / 2 / 2 Pro:

① Slide the waterproof gasket onto the USB connector of the Solar Panel cable.
② Plug the USB connector into the USB port of eufyCam 1 / 2 / 2 Pro.
③ Cover the waterproof bracket and then screw the thread bolt into the mounting screw slot.

1. For eufyCam 2C / 2C Pro / eufyCam E:

① Slide the respective waterproof gasket onto the USB connector of the Solar Panel cable.
② Plug the USB connector into the USB port of eufyCam 2C / 2C Pro / eufyCam E.
