Reolink Lumus v2 Review 2024 - Better Than I Thought!

Is ONVIF or rtsp compatibility?

Does Lumus V2 support the use of solar panel? Thanks.

records 24 hours a day?

Is this the Lumus pro? I’m trying to decide between Lumus Pro, E1 outdoor pro and trackmix WiFi

Thanks for the review. I just noticed there is a new version, the "Lumus Pro". I'm looking to replace my Eufy Outdoor Cam E220, I love it but the detections are not reliable.

Hey very nice test! Thanks for the detatiled review.

My old Lumus cameras sometimes completely disconnect from the router, for some reason. It seems to be a random thing and requires actually unplugging them and plugging them back in to get them to reconnect. I ordered this upgraded version today. Hopefully, its WiFi stability will be better.

Does the camera have rtsp?

without sd card and no paid subscription, do we get at least some recorded clips ?

Does it support WiFi 6?

where can i get a power extension for this version? the cable is too short and I am not able to find the type of extension that I need!. thank you

mine keeps having a video loss problem each hour on the dot. does anyone have the same problem? have updated the firmware already and i don't think its a network problem

The one setting I just found watching this is when you’re under the stream mode you can set the quality to fluent, balanced, or clear. I thought mine was having issues since it seemed like the video was in 640 but nope it was just that setting. Once switched BAM massive difference but of course massive increase in data being used too.

Bought one based on your review and installed it this weekend. I planned to use it first and foremost as an outdoor motion activated spotlight but I'm struggling to have the spotlight to turn on following not even so distant motion. I have all sensitivity settings to max, yet the spotlight only turns on when a person is literally just below the camera, like 5-10 feet away. Camera is aiming down at the stairs climbing up to my level in an outside rear staircase. Any idea how I could improve things? What is weird is that by looking at the Reolink app I can see the camera detects motion, it then just does not turn on the spotlight unless the person being right below it. Thanks.

Will this work with the ReoLink WiFi NVR? (RLN12W)

Have the new version now RTSP ? this would be a must have.

Excellent video and audio quality.

very fast detection notification speed, im really impressed! i hope they will never mess-up the performance with firmware updates or app updates!
thanks for this 5 star review

No matter compatibility. Does it have optional professional monitoring, virtual security guard service or can you use it with third party monitoring service? POE or ethernet option would be nice to prevent wifi jamming.

Can you review the tapo c720 smart floodlight camera? Not much video about it

If you add this camera to a Reolink cloud subscription, you get rich notifications with a thumbnail snapshot in every alert notification.

Hi, ive been looking for outdoor camera for the best speed notification and event recording. What do you recommend for wired one and wireless one, thanks.

My brother this is a dope video. Just found your channel two days ago and been binge watching some of your recent videos.


What is your best recommendation for Moving into a new home soon and want to hook it up with cams.

Seems like the reolink system you recently installed in the business space coupled with a few of these cameras would be best. Not sure if you would have other considerations??

Your review of the Reolink Lumus is informative, engaging, and incredibly helpful!

Thank you for the vid, I have 4 of these and they are fantastic

The audio quality is interesting

I hear mixed reviews about the cameras, but I hear the app is terrible. So I wanna know? Should I get this or not?
As far as the app, it's got maybe a three point two

These cameras are awesome. I have 2 and also purchased one for my parent's townhouse.
One thing to note you mentioned it was only good for a vertical install. I have mounted one of these on the ceiling in my garage and it works perfectly. I did need to turn the camera upside down but you can then flip the image within the camera settings.

I have them monitoring our garage and the front door at home and the driveway/front door at my parents. I feel they are perfect for smaller areas but will stick to Reolink 4K POE cameras for larger/wider areas.

I use to have a Google Nest Camera but will never go back. Reolink are half the price, has better quality products and image, and the biggest thing no subscription.

I guess reolink might be good sent mine back because there customer service is the worst not worth buying if you ever need help

I have two of them. Work great and super cheap. I would do POE cameras if I was able to run POE to the spots but these work great.

Is there an outdoor camera where it can talk to visitors or to anyone by itself without me talking through it. More like an Ai telling them we are not home we are not interested please come another time or just leave a message and we will get back to you

Thanks L.H.

Cool review, I would love to see it compared to a Eufy camera, since that’s the brand I invested in.

Wow, it's been awhile since I think we've seen a new Lumis camera.
I think most of my reolinks easily detect over 40 feet.
I like the overall footprint of this.

I want a camera that alerts me when the mail is delivered, a tow truck is repo-ing my car, or when a cop is in the neighborhood😊

ordering two!! the features and the price!! amazing-

Man I wish my auntie's reolink argus 3 pro camera loaded the stream as fast as this camera does.

Unbelievable image quality 🤩wow
Well done reolink 👌👏👏👏

Thanks for this review. I had 6 of the old style v1 Lumus cameras and had issues with network stability, audio quality and false alerts. I eventually replaced them all with other models. This new v2 Lumus fixes all of that. Such a great camera, and a fantastic upgrade, while still maintaining the small form factor. I am really happy with my new Lumus v2 cameras, but this upgraded version has really flown under the radar. Reolink really hasn't promoted it at all. I found out about it by accident.

What's up brother, I've seen several of your past videos as I'm looking into a solid home security system. I have to catch up on some vids but knowing what you know what would you recommend for a hybrid wifi and wired connecting NVR brand/camera? I believe Eufy has a hybrid system option. Looking for high resolution and excellent night vision abilities, panning a plus, thanks.

💐👍💐. Good idea to compare the three sec cams.

Looks like a decent camera for a Reolink setup. I have 4 ports left on mine.
I've been playing with tracking cameras under my car port and have a dual camera one that has a fixed lense and a tracking pod on top. Really nice to keep track of deliveries and anything in the driveway. Has the spotlight option and all that too. Works well with the generic ONVIF POE box I picked up.
I'll have to watch for a deal on the Reolink version and I'm sure you've reviewed several.
Thanks for the reviews, they are quite helpful 👍
