    Interesting idea. Have to give Ring credit for thinking of new ways to use the camera.

    @4:01 That is clearly a design floor on Rings part. An intruder could literally unplug the power cable from the back of the camera to disable it. Ring are just making it easier and easier to defeat their cameras.

    This has just become available in the UK.
    It’s great that it fully integrates into an existing SuC, but I wish they had thought a little more about the power options, especially for those of us who use the battery & solar options on our outdoor cams. A POE option would have been great🤷‍♂️
    Hoping it won’t take long for the 3rd party market to come along with an external battery pack 👀🤓

    I was hoping you were doing this review. It's a nice add-on. I agree with you that should add the tracking feature in the near future. It's cool. I have mine plugged in but for the area it is, I don't think I will need pan/tilt features. But's it's definitely nice add-on. Thanks for the review!

  • @garydcollier1

    Nice review. Thanks! You covered what one would hope. So what I'm about to write is not a criticism. One thing few reviewers cover is that the Ring software interface is not fully functional on desktop versions. I understand they once had an app for this, but now it is fully browser based. A lot of features are missing and support told me they have no plans to make the browser version more robust. Numerous things are missing from the browser version. E.g., you cannot control the pan & tilt from a browser, only from a cell phone. I sit at a computer most of the day with 3 screens. I use one screen to show all 4 of my cameras (in 4 browser windows) resized for one view. Of course, the screens refresh or go off every 10 minutes or so, and they must be manually refreshed. A mere click of a button does that, but it would be much better not to have to refresh so often. Once an hour, maybe. But every 10 minutes? Also, to pan or tilt, I must open the app on my phone and do it from there. Finally, resetting the home position of the P&T is not obvious, but is found in Device settings / General Settings / Home position (and can only be accessed on a phone.) I use a phone all the time; but I don't like this limitation TO the phones. Disappointing.

    • @LifeHackster
      @LifeHackster  Před rokem +1

      I am assuming what you are trying to do with your Ring cameras is stream to your monitor for long periods of time. This is not what Ring cameras are designed for. They only record when they detect motion and give you a notification. They are not designed for streaming constantly in your phone or monitor. You might want to check out NVR wired systems and with this system, you can stream 24/7 on to your monitor.

    • @garydcollier1
      @garydcollier1 Před rokem +2

      @@LifeHackster Thanks for the reply. I do appreciate it, especially since you originally posted 11 long months ago! And I certainly don't dispute anything you have said. Nor am I complaining about your videos. I watched several of them before buying my setup. However, the more specific problem I am talking about is that I watched numerous reviews prior to buying 4 cameras and the pan & tilt, and not one (at least not that I remember) addressed the problem that the browser interface is far different and not fully functional compared to the phone, or that Ring was limited to 10 minutes at a time. I specifically asked Ring sales whether one could view on a desktop and was assured that I could. Of course, I did not know to ask whether the systems gave the same service. And no one gave a heads up about the online interface being so different. Ring certainly does not clearly warn about this: I had to find it out after all of my installs. It is too late for me to return the cameras now, hundreds of dollars later. So i am stuck with Ring. Again, I'm not complaining about your videos (they were great) and helpful. But I am hoping to raise a red flag for anyone interested in viewing on desktop. Thanks again.

    LIfeHackster, Another awesome product review. It is a nice "new" feature device by Ring which is trying to play catch up against other PT(Z) branded cameras, but I am not fully sold on this additional Ring P&T device. I purchased the Reolink E1 outdoor camera instead as it has autotracking and 5MP with zoom 5x.

    I think Ring creates the problems then sells you the solutions.. its always been a flawed product and then they sell you the "fix "and this biz model has worked well for them.
    i have 2 stick up came both wired and i wanted ring to create a PTZ and here it is.. Honestly i like its cool that its bends upward so you can see the sky at night for whatever reason. i think for auto tracking would be a easy future update and most likely would be only for subscribers to the ring plus. My impression is vs the competitions its a quick fix" to loosing sales to eufy and other ptz cameras with 2k resolutions , auto tracking and other features. Ring knew this and here is the quick fix to that share of the market., I think ill get one to play with it

      Try to reprogram the routine. What I found reliable though is Ring Smart Lighting together with their cameras because it integrates on the app themselves. Another thing which should also work is just a separate motion floodlight or even those solar motion lights, they also work pretty good and get triggered every time they sense motion.

    I will hold off to buy tilt till they fix the battery cam tilt holder to dummy shell and insert the original battery for stock up cam battery to charge in power losss

      It is very possible me and my husband use the same app same log in info. Just be sure in the event there is a emergency she is listed as well on the app under shared access and knows password needed in case of accidental trigger.

      If you follow that process it will be fine and additional if she needs to call ring her and your info will be required.

    In 2 days really regret to buy this… First problem: On cellular data the live view doesn’t work at all… Problem 2: calibration failed… Wasted money…
