The Wyze Cam v3 is undoubtedly one of the best indoor and outdoor budget smart home security cameras you can buy today. At just $35, this smart security camera packs a lot of features only found in premium cameras. The Wyze Cam v3 features 1080p HD full-color night vision which gives you clear vivid video footage not only during the day but also at night. Obviously, this cam could get some help with a dedicated light source, especially in dark areas with additional accessories.
The Wyze Cam v3 also offers 24/7 Recording with a microSD Card, 1080p Full HD Live Stream, Motion and Sound Detection, and IP65 Weatherproof Rating. While this camera can work indoors, it’s best suited for outdoor use. You can easily mount it on a door frame, a window frame, a wall, a pole, or a tree. It has a metallic base, so it can magnetically attach to any metal surface.
But if you have a wall or wooden surface, the camera has a little circular metallic piece that you can drill on a wall or wooden frame. Then you magnetically attach the Wyze cam base to it. Out of the box, this camera does wonders, but you can accessorize it to do even better with the following products made and sold separately by Wyze.
Wyze Cam spotlight
The Wyze Cam v3 offers 1080p HD Full-color night vision. So you still have good enough picture quality even in dimly lit areas. The quality is a lot better than the competition in its league such as the Xiaomi Mi 360 home security light.
This camera is powered by a Starlight CMOS sensor with an f/1.6 lens with a low-light amplifier which makes it see through the dark areas. However, more light is always better. So you can get the Wyze Cam spotlight.
This $15 LED light attaches to the top of the camera. You can turn the lights on and off using the Wyze app. You can also add rules to automate certain routines. For instance, when motion is detected, you can set a rule to turn on or brighten the light for instance. You can also get it from the Wyze store for $10.

Wyze Lamp socket
Wyze Lamp Socket Power Adapter for Wyze Cam v3 can be used to power the Wyze Cam v3 by using an exterior light fixture. Without this lamp socket, you’ll have to resort to a number of tricks to get power to your outdoor Wyze Cam. For instance, you might have to use one or more power strips or extensions or long USB-A male to female cables.
