A limited-time Amazon deal has slashed the price of a reliable Tapo security camera, making home CCTV far more affordable
I test security cameras all the time, from the cheap and simple to the complex and expensive - and the brand I keep coming back to is Tapo.
They're just the most reliable, the easiest to use, and the easiest to set up I've lived with. And they're one of a few brands that let you tap into a live feed on its wired cameras without constant interruptions.
They also have a very clever and reliable notification system, with an AI-backed detection and activity monitor. This means you can get an alert whenever there's movement and, crucially, you'll know it's a human and not some random animal or vehicle in your chosen zone, because the software has worked that out.


Tapo's kit isn't expensive either. For example, one of its popular battery-powered cameras, the TC82, costs £79.99 - but there's a deal on right now knocking 54% off, bringing the price down to just £36.99. And that's an incredible bargain.
Another great thing with Tapo is there's no ongoing cost. You can, if you like, sign up for a cloud storage plan, but there's no need. You can just insert an SD card if you want to save footage.
The TC82 has 2K footage, night-vision, two-way audio, and it works with all the main smart home systems.


The battery life can give you up to six months between USB charges, or you can spend a little more and add a solar panel - which extends the battery life pretty much indefinitely. Here's a bundle deal on Amazon for just £44.99. I have a solar panel on mine, and I'd definitely recommend it.
This is a limited-time deal and Amazon hasn't said how long it will last, so if you fancy a better security system at home, or if you're just setting out on your CCTV journey, now's the time to take the plunge.
