eufy Wall Cameras

The height at which wall cameras should be mounted depends on factors like their purpose and the area to be monitored, potential obstructions, etc. Generally, a height of 8 to 10 feet (2.4-3.0 m) is recommended for optimal coverage and reduced vulnerability to tampering. This height provides a good balance between capturing clear images and keeping the camera out of easy reach. However, you can mount them higher to get a better field of view if needed.

Generally, security cameras are most effective when positioned below light fixtures. This arrangement allows the light to evenly illuminate the camera's field of view, ensuring clear and well-lit recordings. Additionally, placing the video camera below the light also prevents the fixture from obstructing its view, providing unobstructed surveillance coverage. So this setup maximizes the camera's performance, enhancing both its daytime and nighttime capabilities.

To stick wall cameras including eufy's outdoor floodlight cameras to the wall without nails, you can use adhesive strips or mounting tape designed for heavy objects, such as 3M Command Strips. Alternatively, you can use sticky pads, suction cups (on smooth surfaces), or magnetic mounts if your wall camera is compatible.

Moreover, plug-in wall cameras can be directly inserted into the power outlet to operate for motion detection, live video streaming, and recording. All these options offer secure attachment without damaging the walls and are easy to remove.

To hide a wall camera like eufy's wall night light cameras, consider the following methods:

Disguise as a Wall Decoration: Place the camera inside or behind a picture frame, clock, or decorative object.
Install in a Smoke Detector: Use dummy smoke detectors with built-in cameras for discreet surveillance.
Blend with Surroundings: Paint the camera the same color as the wall for camouflage.
Use Shelves: Place the camera on a high shelf or in a corner for an unobtrusive view.

To detect hidden in-wall cameras, you can look for small holes or unusual fixtures where cameras may be concealed. Besides, you can also use a flashlight to scan the area for any reflective surfaces from camera lenses. Additionally, RF (radio frequency) detectors or infrared smartphone apps can help locate cameras by detecting wireless signals or heat from the devices.
