TP-Link have announced their latest camera, the Tapo C660 KIT has arrived in Australia, offering a solar-powered 4K outdoor security camera with 360-degree AI tracking, starlight colour night vision and 24/7 continuous capture.
The camera includes a 4K Ultra HD – 8MP sensor with a massive 18x digital zoom letting you easily recognise people, vehicles or pets from your phone, with AI detection built-in to help differentiate between them. The system is mounted on a motorised pan and tilt giving you 360° coverage, reducing blind spots around your property.
The sensor offers starlight colour night vision, with dual spotlights onboard for additional lighting, and paired with the on-board speakers for two-way audio, you can spark off both as an alarm if you need to draw attention to an intruder.
The camera is powered by a dedicated, but removable solar panel which can be mounted separately almost four metres away, and charges a 10,000mAh battery with just 45 minutes of direct sunlight per day powering the camera for ‘a full day of operation’.
Neville Wang, Managing Director at TP-Link Australia and New Zealand, said the Tapo C660 KIT was developed to reflect how Australians are rethinking home security, prioritising flexibility, reliability and ease of use over complex installations.
He said, “Home security shouldn’t demand constant attention. Too often, outdoor cameras promise peace of mind but end up creating more work through wiring, charging and ongoing maintenance. We saw a clear opportunity to simplify that experience without compromising on performance.”
Designed for Australian conditions, the Tapo C660 KIT carries an IP65 weather-resistant rating, letting you install it externally and leave it to work.
The TP-Link camera system works locally on your dual-band Wi-Fi network, storing data on a local microSD with support for cards up to 512GB in size – or you can use TP-Links optional cloud storage.
The Ttap C660 KIT is available now through the TP-Link website priced at 9 RRP.
