TP-Link Tapo C100 Indoor Security Camera – Wi-Fi Camera with microSD Recording

Name: TP-Link Tapo C100 Indoor Security Camera – Wi-Fi Camera with microSD Recording
Brand: TP-Link

TP-Link · Smart Home

The Tapo C100 is the camera most British households buy first, and the reason is local storage: footage can be recorded to a microSD card in the camera rather than to a cloud plan, so there is no ongoing cost simply to keep the camera useful.

It sits indoors on a shelf or wall, connects to home Wi-Fi and streams to the Tapo app with motion alerts. It suits pet owners, people checking on an elderly relative's front room, or anyone wanting eyes on a hallway while away. Pair it with a SanDisk microSD card for recording.
