Set the 600-lumen spotlight to switch on with motion and night clips are in colour, up to about 8 m. Without it, infrared: black and white.

Good to know.
Is a Good-grade unit worse at its job than a new one?
No. The grade describes the housing, not the electronics. A renewed unit runs the same published spec sheet; the cosmetics and packaging are what differ.
Do I need a HomeBase or a subscription?
No to both. It records events to its own 8 GB over 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi, with no monthly fee for local storage. HomeBase 3, Mini or Professional S1 are optional; HomeBase 2 won’t run it.
How much sun does it need?
eufy recommends at least two hours of direct sun a day. A shaded spot still works, but you’ll charge it by USB-C more often.
Does it record all day?
No. It records motion events only, with no 24/7 recording and no pre-buffer. When the 8 GB fills, the oldest clips are overwritten.
When will my order leave Townsville?
We do our best to get orders out the same day; same day to 1 business day is our typical dispatch time from Townsville, Queensland. During busy periods it can take a little longer, though that’s rare. Australia Post delivery time is on top.

Compatibility follows eufy’s most recent published guides. Where eufy’s documents disagree, we follow the most recent one, and where eufy hasn’t confirmed a pairing we mark it not compatible until it does.
The S230 records and alerts; it doesn’t prevent anything, and detection can miss or mislabel activity.

01 / The missing colours department
Last seen:
just before dark.
A red watering can, teal pot and yellow chair illustrate colour night vision. Actual footage depends on light and placement.
The eufy SoloCam S230 pairs 2K video with a built-in spotlight for colour night vision. Its solar panel tops up the battery in suitable sun, and event recordings stay in its built-in local storage.
Not beige.
Also not beige.
An acquired taste.
02 / Bring in the light
Darkness dislikes
a follow-up question.
The motion-activated spotlight supports colour night vision. Adjust its brightness and colour temperature in the eufy Security app to suit the space.
Prefer a darker yard? Infrared night vision is available too. Colour needs useful light; the actual result depends on distance, movement and your surroundings.
Switch on the illustrated spotlight
Colour has returned to this drawing. This is a playful illustration of the feature, not a simulation of camera output.
Interactive illustration; not camera footage.

03 / Details, please
2K.
Less squint.
2K resolution gives you more image detail than standard 1080p. The wide 135° field of view helps cover a yard, gate or garage approach.
Digital zoom can enlarge what was recorded. It cannot invent a number plate, sharpen every moving face or do that thing from crime shows.
Position and lighting matter. Check the live view before making the mounting holes permanent.
04 / Day shift
The sun.
Finally on
the payroll.
The solar panel is built into the camera. eufy recommends at least two hours of direct sunlight a day to maintain charge under normal usage.
It charges a built-in 13,400mAh battery. Shade, short winter days, frequent events and settings all affect the balance. A manual USB-C top-up may still be needed.
Deep shade reduces solar input.
No separate solar panel is required.

05 / The local records office
8GB.
On the camera.
Built-in 8GB eMMC local storage keeps event recordings on the S230. Its core local recording features do not require a monthly subscription.
Storage is finite. How much history fits depends on activity and clip settings. This is event recording, not continuous 24/7 video.
Illustration of built-in local storage.
06 / A slightly unusual line-up
Person.
Probably worth a look.
On-device AI human detection helps reduce irrelevant motion alerts. Set activity zones to focus attention on the part of the picture that matters.
Has places to be.
Very local suspect.
Declined to comment.
Detection can miss events or send false alerts. Adjust sensitivity and zones, then test them at the actual location. The illustrated line-up is not a test result.
07 / A word from the house
“Just by
the gate,
thanks.”
Example conversation. No parcel was interrogated.
Two-way audio.
One voice at a time.
Speak and listen through the camera using the app. Communication is half-duplex, so you take turns rather than talking over each other.
Useful for delivery instructions or checking who is there.
A built-in siren is also available. A camera can help you monitor and respond; it cannot guarantee that an incident will be prevented.
08 / The weather has entered the chat
IP67.
Rain happens.
The S230 is rated IP67 for dust and water resistance, with a published operating range of −20°C to 50°C.
Fit it as instructed and close the charging-port cover securely. The weather rating is not an invitation to pressure-wash it or install it in a swimming pool.

09 / The condition report, in plain sight
This exact offer
Manufacturer Renewed
Used, not brand new.
Renewed non-retail packaging
A past life.
Declared, not mysterious.
This is a used camera that has been refurbished and tested through the manufacturer's renewal process. Good Condition means visible cosmetic wear, such as marks or scuffs, should be expected.
It is supplied in renewed non-retail packaging. Manufacturer and illustrative images show the model and features, not the exact cosmetic appearance of the unit you receive.
It carries CamGuard Australia's own 12-month warranty, not a manufacturer warranty. Your Australian Consumer Law rights also apply.
Cosmetic wear varies by unit.
10 / Open the evidence box
The camera
is the
main event.
This renewed offer includes one SoloCam S230 camera. It is not a sealed retail kit.
The product, mount, mounting screws, wall anchors, USB charging cable and printed instruction manual are included.
The integrated solar panel is part of the camera. It hasn't wandered off into a separate carton.
Contents, without the plot twist
The supplied accessories are listed clearly below.
11 / A three-stop reconnaissance mission
Before the drill
gets involved.
Find the sun.
Choose a position that gives the integrated panel direct sun and the camera a useful view. Eaves are excellent at keeping sun off things. That's the complication.
Check 2.4GHz Wi-Fi.
The camera connects to 2.4GHz Wi-Fi. It does not connect to a 5GHz-only network. Test signal where it will actually sit; the lounge room's result cannot travel on its behalf.
Test. Then mount.
Use the eufy Security app to check the live view, alerts and audio. Confirm suitable mounting hardware first. A pencil mark is cheaper to reconsider than a hole.
No HomeBase is needed for standalone operation. “Solo” has brought its own stationery.
