TP-Link Tapo C425 Smart Wire-Free Indoor/Outdoor Security Camera

TP-Link Tapo Smart Wire-Free Indoor/Outdoor Security Camera (Tapo C425) - 2 Years Local Warranty

The Tapo C425 is a battery camera that needs no cable run at all. It records 2K QHD 4MP at 2560 x 1440 across a 142 degree diagonal view, keeps colour after dark using two built-in spotlights, and runs up to 300 days on its 10000 mAh battery. The IP66 body suits an exposed Singapore wall, and footage records to a microSD card of up to 512 GB.

2K QHD Detail Across a 142-Degree View

Maximum resolution is 2K QHD 4MP, 2560 x 1440 pixels, encoded in H.264 at 15, 20, 25 or 30 fps. The F1.6 lens on this V2 hardware covers 142 degrees diagonally, 122 degrees horizontally and 66 degrees vertically, and a 12x digital zoom lets you pull in on a gate or a number plate after the event. A 1/3 inch progressive-scan CMOS starlight sensor does the low-light work, with 3DNR and WDR cleaning up noise and backlit doorways.

Full-Colour Night Vision and Twin Spotlights

An 850 nm infrared LED gives monochrome vision to 49 ft, 15 m. Two built-in spotlights give full-colour night vision instead, so a visitor at the gate is a person in a red shirt rather than a grey shape. The spotlights double as a deterrent alongside a siren TP-Link rates at 94 dB, measured at a 4 inch, 10 cm distance. Two-way audio with noise cancellation runs through the built-in microphone and speaker.

On-Device Detection for People, Pets and Vehicles

A single motion sensor with a 130 degree horizontal field of view, paired with an ambient light sensor, drives AI detection that separates motion, person, pet and vehicle. Activity Zones let you mask the pavement or a neighbour's driveway so the phone stops buzzing at traffic. Notifications arrive as system alerts; notifications carrying a snapshot of the event require a Tapo Care subscription. Storage is a microSD card in the camera up to 512 GB, or Tapo Care cloud storage.

10000 mAh Battery, 300 Days, Optional Solar

Power comes from a 10000 mAh built-in rechargeable lithium-ion battery. TP-Link publishes up to 300 days per charge at 230 seconds of use per day, falling to 180 days at 360 seconds per day. The supplied USB adapter cable recharges it; the mains adapter is rated 100-240 V, 50/60 Hz input and 5.0 V, 2.0 A output. For permanent power TP-Link names the Tapo A202 solar panel as the optional accessory, sold separately.

IP66 Weatherproofing and Magnetic Mounting

The camera measures 116.2 x 64.8 x 64.8 mm and is rated IP66 against rain and dust. A magnetic base is in the box with a metal plate, mounting template, screws and anchors, so the camera sits on a shelf, a ceiling or a wall and twists to aim without tools. Operating temperature is -20 to 45 C and operating humidity 10 to 90 percent RH non-condensing; charging should be done between 0 and 45 C.

Ideal For

Singapore landed homes, condominium balconies, shop entrances and site offices where there is no power or Ethernet at the mounting point, and anyone who wants colour rather than grey infrared footage at night.
