The Solar Panel works with eufyCam 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 or on the roof or a wall on the outside of your house. 

Keep in mind that weather conditions, dirt and debris, and the actual amount of sunlight your solar panel receives will affect the solar panel efficiency. It is best to position the solar panel south facing (if in the Northern Hemisphere) or north facing (if in the Southern Hemisphere) at a 30° angle. Make sure to keep your Solar Panel and eufyCam within 13ft/fm of each other. Once the Solar Panel is installed, follow the below instructions in order to connect the Solar Panel to your eufyCam.

1. Please connect the eufyCam to the solar panel by following the instructions below.

• 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.

• 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.

2. Screw the mounting bracket for eufyCam into the mounting slot of your camera, and angle the mount to get the desired field of view.

3. Route the extension cable along the solar panel hub to avoid tangling cable.
