Disconnecting homebase 2 by intruder

So hypothetically speaking, if an intruder gets in the house —> alarm goes off —> he finds/unplugs homebase 2 —> runs away with it.

Is it game over for me? Recordings are gone? Alarm is shut off?

Let me know if I’m missing something! New user…

Thanks!

Yes that is definitely a possibility, that why you have to hide your Homebase well and never tell to anyone where you have hid it. Additionally, to save your recordings you can use either/or:

  • Eufy cloud storage service
  • Manually make frequent backups of your video’s on your phone/computer
  • Create a RTSP om Eufycam (no idea how to do this don’t ask me) :joy:
    I can not stress enough that you have to keep security system details secret. If a would be burglar doesn’t know which system you have, it would be very hard for him to know how to disable it. That why I personally do not use the stickers that Eufy gave me, instead I use a more generic camera warning sticker (pic related)

As for the alarm, I think the camera’s themselves also have an alarm. So at least when the steal your Homebase, these will go off. However, I am not sure for how long the camera alarms will go off.
