The Best Use Cases for a Battery-Powered Home Security Camera

Kami, Outdoor Camera, Tips & Tricks

Delivery drivers, yard help, neighbors coming in and out of your driveway and high traffic on the street: hundreds of people pass around your home on a daily basis, which makes home security a must. Luckily, there is a solution on the market that makes home monitoring easy, reliable and more affordable than ever!

The Kami Wire-Free Camera is your greatest ally when you’re looking for a convenient home security solution. With HD live streaming and a battery that can last up to 6 months on a single charge, the Kami Wire-Free Outdoor Camera provides you with an easy way to keep an eye on your home and surrounding areas. Weather-resistant, the Kami can be placed anywhere on your property – overlooking the front door to keep track of who’s coming in and out, or on a branch over the back yard. Because it operates without the need of cords or a hub, the Kami Wire-Free is much more convenient than any traditional battery-operated cameras: the set-up itself takes only a couple of minutes after you take it out of the box.

Powered by 4 rechargeable batteries, the Kami Wire-Free Camera is equipped with PIR motion-detection that protects and extends the battery life, while providing you with reliable security around-the-clock. The smart system knows to ignore certain innocent motions – like the moving of the trees in your backyard – while keeping an eye on the important things.

How can you use your Kami Wire-Free Camera?

Mount it anywhere (within wi-fi range)

Because it’s powered by batteries, the Kami can be installed anywhere on your property. Mount it on top of the front door and monitor the foot traffic to your home. The small size and portable design also mean you can easily mount it on trees or the roof of your shed (just make sure it’s not facing the sun).

Thanks to the smart motion detection technology, Kami knows what to look for and what to ignore but to make the most out of the technology, mount the camera in a way that faces your property. With traditional cameras, you don’t have much of a choice – thanks to the bunch of cables and cords, the only viable place to mount them is the wall of your house. The Wire-Free Kami, however, can be installed anywhere you want. High usage depletes the battery, so the best place to mount your Kami Wire-Free Camera is low-traffic areas, like the back yard or the porch.

Kami goes where you go

If security is paramount of your comfort and peace of mind while you’re away on a holiday, then you’ll love the new Kami. Checking into an Airbnb? Pop your Kami in your bag and unpack it once you arrive so you and your family can enjoy your trip, without worrying about security. Mount it on your vehicle and your Kami will double as a dashboard camera. Secure it on a branch in the wilderness to make your campsite more secure. A day trip away from home? Make sure there are no unpleasant surprises while you’re gone. The opportunities are virtually limitless! To take advantage of your battery security camera while traveling all you need to do is make sure you have access to Wi-Fi for best performance.

Power outage

Traditional wired cameras are at a serious disadvantage when you’re dealing with a power outage. Fortunately, battery-operated cameras don’t rely on the power grid, which means your camera will continue monitoring your home, even when you’re dealing with a power outage. How? Unlike standard battery-operated cameras, Kami also comes with a SD card slot. This means that, in the unfortunate event of a power outage, your recordings are stored safely onto the SD card.

Keep an eye on regular visitors

Battery home security cameras are a fantastic solution if you’re dealing with a home that sees a lot of visitors when you’re away. Keep an eye on the babysitter or the dog walker, make sure you always know what repairmen or the yard help are doing, and stay in the loop about deliveries to your front door.

With the Kami Wire-Free, you can take things up a notch. Because it’s not connected by wires or a hub, the Kami is extremely portable, which means you can easily move it inside your home. Want to see what the kids are up to after school? Check in to make sure the TV is off and the homework is all done. Away on a weekend trip? Keep an eye on your pets to make sure they’re not lonely.

Aesthetics and functionality

Battery-powered home security cameras are designed to strike the sweet spot between aesthetics and functionality. Next-generation products like the Kami Wire-Free Camera provide you with a bird’s eye view over your home, helping you keep an eye on the important things, without sacrificing the aesthetics of your home
