Is HomeBase 3 compatible with other eufy Security products?
What kind of hard drive can I use to expand the storage* of HomeBase 3?
Why does my camera battery discharge quickly?
What are the two USB ports on the back of HomeBase used for?
Why doesn't the hard drive work?
After installing a hard drive, I found that the outside surface of HomeBase 3 was hot. Is this something to worry about?

Eufy Rocks!
It took a while to setup my system, and tweak it to work the way I like, but voila! Amazing system once you get it up an running. Here's my recommended config: For the HomeBase 3, use the wi-fi ability of the HomeBase 3 to connect to your cable modem, don't connect it directly to your cable modem using the ethernet cable, that way you can place the HomeBase 3 anywhere in the house, which becomes important when you want to use it as your S330's doorbell chime; I'd also recommend a wi-fi booster, and place it close to the HomeBase 3; that way your S330 doorbell and cameras can connect easily, and you can avoid the dreaded video playback decryption message that sometimes pauses your replay of videos on your iPhone (for example). I'd also get a 1TB SSD drive to store video from your cameras and the S330 doorbell. One central location to store your videos makes life simple. I also recommend you place the HomeBase 3 somewhere on the main floor in a central area of your house. The reason why: (a) remember: use it as the doorbell chime for the eufy Video Smart Lock S330. Toss the chime that comes with the S330. You'll have to use the eufy security app to specify you want to use the HomeBase 3 as the chime. OK, once you get your amazing deadbolt finger print reading S330 Video Smart Lock setup and working with the HomeBase 3, throw in a couple of eufy security cameras. That's it. The only other recommendations: (a) get an extra battery for your S330 Video Smart Lock, so you have zero down time when the time comes to recharge the lock's battery, and don't set up your motion detection to detect everything, as a strong wind can cause the rustling of nearby trees to set off the motion detection. I only use the 'human' and 'pets' for sensitivity. It seems to work very well for me. Keep in mind that your front door might not be compatible with the S330 if it has a screen door on it (e.g. blocks the S330 camera's view). I agree that the documentation is pretty generic, and makes the initial setup for the novice somewhat difficult, BUT, it's well worth it once it's up and running. I absolutely love it!

Great
Jumped from Ring to Eufy. Happy so far. Of course, I have to wait and see in terms of longevity. But so far so good!

Exactly as described
Extremely easy to connect to home network. My S340 wireless camera connect to it without issue and both have stayed connected since a bought them both 4 months ago
