Lamp Socket Power Adapter for Wyze Cam v3/v4 (Camera Sold Separately)

Highly recommend for wyze cam. Easy install

Update: after physically rearranging my 3 sockets, moving the one with the most recent MAC address to be directly connected to my v3 cam, the entire group have been working flawlessly! Updating to 5 stars. I bought the first one to power a new V3 camera off a garage mounted porch light, and for that, it works well. Discovered that it was “smart”, and could operate additional units as slaves, awesome! Bought two more to go in my front entry porch lights! Set the sunrise and sunset schedule. They turn off in the morning just fine, but fail to come on at night, until cycle the porch lights power completely! Using the app to cycle just the sockets doesn’t fix it However, even though the socket loses its lunch to power the light bulb, it still provides power to the V3 camera! Very odd behavior. So, I could do away with any scheduling, and just leave my porch lights on 24x7, but it sure would be nice if the scheduling feature actually worked consistently.

This is useful if you don’t want to hire an electrician for hardwiring. It’s very easy to install. I like the concept, and it works well. I deducted one star because the new version is very similar to the old one, except it’s more expensive and no longer includes the cable.

I think it's worth the money as you get a separate power source for the wyze camera and it is also a smart switch. Easy to install and needs to connect to your wifi to get its smart functionality. It comes with a free sticker that you can put on your existing light switch as a warning label not to switch off.

This little inexpensive device is a fantastic way to install a camera where a plug-in is not handy, or if you just don't want to deal with a bunch of wires. Installation Installation is literally as easy as screwing in a light bulb. Remove the existing bulb, screw in the socket adapter, then screw the light bulb back in. There is a USB outlet for your camera. It's designed to work with the WyzeCam v3, and the USB plug fits snug to maintain weather resistance. Connecting I have installed two of these, both with the camera. Install the app, power the camera and follow the prompts. You'll need to scan a bar code from your phone, and press a button on the back of the camera (which can be a bit hard to reach if you've already mounted the camera). The whole process takes 2 - 5 minutes. You do need to have a 2.4 GHz WiFi connection where you install the camera. Usage The light bulb can still work the same as any light bulb, but to take advantage of the device and camera, you'll need to leave the switch on all the time, and control the bulb with the app. You can schedule it to turn on/off at specific times, or you can have it turn on/off at dusk/dawn (which works flawlessly), or you can manually control it with a tap in the app. Durability I can't speak to cold or snow, but my first socket adapter has lasted through a year of incredible heat (120º), extreme UV exposure, severe sandstorms, massive amounts of super-fine dust, and the occasional thunderstorm without any problem. It is somewhat protected as it is installed under an eave, but it is otherwise exposed (there is no encasement of the bulb - it is fully exposed). It has lasted beautifully. I've had 0 problems with it in a year. Conclusion Overall, I highly recommend this device.

Purchased two units and they work great with our Wyze Bulbs and cameras on the front and back porch.

Was working just fine at first. Now I cannot get it to connect back to the camera after resetting. I reset because it wasn't working correctly. Thought a reset would work. Now the light bulb won't come on and cannot connect to camera but for some reason it still powers the camera. Took the lamp socket out and put just the bulb in and the bulb came on with no problem. Put the bulb back into the lamp socket and nothing.

This is a very creative solution to allow me to use my carriage light and control both a light bulb and a v4 camera or campan 3). If you have two carriage lights, you purchase one for each carriage light and they can be synced together to turn the lights on and off at sunset and sunrise. The actual socket is smaller than I expected and it has a USB port on the side which you can then run to your camera. I still need to do some work to run the wires more inconspicuously but it functions well and puts a camera at a location that I wanted without having to drill holes and run electrical wires. Bravo Wyze! Very impressed!

No where on this product page it is written that its 120v input socket and you shipped it to EU where electric system runs on 220v I submitted return, please send me socket which is supported on 220v systems.

Works as described. Great addition for wyze cameras outside.

Si sirve.

Life saver. I didn’t have an outlet near my front door, I used this as an easy alternative. Highly recommend. Mines been installed for over a year and a half now.

Funciona muy bien y fácil instalación ya que va al socket y llego en muy buen estado
