Dahua Apollo & Reolink Argus: Top Solar-Powered Outdoor Cameras for Off-Grid Security
Outdoor cameras are increasingly popular for security and monitoring. Dahua's Apollo Series and Reolink's Argus models stand out for off-grid use, harnessing solar power and 4G connectivity. However, cameras alone cannot provide physical protection and may attract unwanted attention with excessive lighting.
When choosing an outdoor camera, consider IP65 certification for water resistance. Models with solar panels like Dahua Apollo and Reolink Argus series can function without a power supply, ideal for remote locations.
The trend shifts away from cloud storage due to provider dependence. Instead, most tested cameras offer local storage via memory cards or NAS devices in your home network.
For effective security, opt for Full HD resolution to ensure legally secure identification. Color night images, though helpful in recognizing distinctive clothing, could potentially draw criminals' attention with excessive visible light.
Prices vary: basic models with usable image quality start from 100 euros, while high-end features can cost at least 200 euros.
Dahua Apollo and Reolink Argus series excel in outdoor, off-grid monitoring. However, cameras alone cannot guarantee physical protection. Consider local storage and Full HD resolution for effective security. Be mindful of excessive lighting at night to avoid attracting unwanted attention.
