Smart home security company Reolink has announced they’re expanding their award-winning OMVI camera series, with the new OMVI2i Ultra now available in Australia, with the camera heading to JB HiFi stores for the first time.
At just $429, the OMVI 2i Ultra brings a host of new features including dual-view coverage, solar charging, and SyncTrack smart tracking in a wire-free, bullet-PTZ design.
Including a dual-sensor design which pairs an 8MP (4K) wide-view camera, with a 5MP (3K) pan-tilt camera, the , the OMVI 2i Ultra can deliver views covering your home with 355° pan & 55° tilt. The camera includes smart, SyncTrack tracking letting the camera track detected objects, as well as identifying people, vehicles, and animals.
The camera includes dual Passive Infra-Red (PIR) sensors for night vision, as well as colour night vision. An on-board siren is also included giving you options to startle intruders, as well as giving you two-way communication to speak to whoever is on-site.
Powered by a detachable 10,000mAh battery which can power the camera for up to six months on a single charge, there’s also a built-in 6W solar panel that will keepo it up and running with as little as 30 minutes of sunlight each day.
Footage is recorded, then stored locally on a microSD card or on the Reolink Home Hub series. The camera includes support for microSD cards up to 512GB, letting you avoid costly recurring monthly subscriptions.
Speaking on the launch of the OMVI and JB Hi-Fi, Nick Nigro, Vice President, Australasia at Reolink said:
“The OMVI 2i Ultra is the ideal product to feature as part of our first launch with JB Hi-Fi. Whether you are a home owner or business owner, the OMVI 2i Ultra covers a wide area while still capturing the detail up close, and because of the smart detection that runs on the camera itself, it can tell a person from a car or the family dog, meaning fewer false alarms. Now Australians can see it in stores nationwide and get expert advice before they buy.”
The addition of JB Hi-Fi to their distribution, will see 160 JB stores carry the OMVI 2i Ultra, in addition to being on-sale through The Good Guys, Costco, and Bunnings Warehouse.
You can get your hands on the new Reolink OMVI 2i Ultra exclusively in-store at JB Hi-Fi, as well as online at Reolink.com and Amazon for $429.99 AUD.
