What’s the difference between this Stick Up Cam and the previous generation?

Stick Up Cam has been redesigned to give you all the features you need to stay safe–motion-activated notifications, 1080p HD video and two-way talk - in a flexible design with multiple power options. With the updated Stick Up Cam Battery, Stick Up Cam Solar and Stick Up Cam Elite, you now have all the options to find the perfect solution for your home.

What’s the difference between Stick Up Cam Battery, Stick Up Cam Plug-In, Stick Up Cam Solar and Stick Up Cam Elite?

The main difference between Stick Up Cam Battery, Stick Up Cam Plug-In, Stick Up Cam Solar and Stick Up Cam Elite is how they receive power.

Stick Up Cam Battery is powered by the Quick-Release Battery Pack. You can also purchase the Indoor/Outdoor Power Adapter (sold separately) to connect Stick Up Cam Battery to standard outlets for nonstop power. Or you can connect it to a Solar Panel (sold separately) to keep your camera charged with direct sunlight.

Stick Up Cam Plug-In is powered by an AC adapter that plugs into standard power outlets. You can also purchase a Quick-Release Battery Pack (sold separately) for backup power.

Stick Up Cam Solar comes with a Solar Panel as well as a Quick-Release Battery Pack. The Solar Panel requires direct sunlight to keep your device charged. But with the Quick-Release Battery Pack, your camera will have backup power in case you don’t have enough sunlight.

Stick Up Cam Elite uses Power over Ethernet for nonstop power and a reliable connection. It comes with a PoE Adapter that must be placed indoors and plugged into your router in order to power up and connect your Stick Up Cam to the internet.

Another difference between the Stick Up Cams is the mounting bracket. Stick Up Cam Battery, Stick Up Cam Plug-In and Stick Up Cam Solar can be placed on flat surfaces or mounted to a wall, but you will need to purchase a Mount for Stick Up Cam (sold separately) if you’d like to install them on your ceiling or eaves. Stick Up Cam Elite, however, comes with a mounting bracket that lets you place it on walls, ceilings and flat surfaces like a table or shelf without the need to purchase any additional accessories.

What’s the difference between this Stick Up Cam and Spotlight Cam?

The main differences between Stick Up Cam and Spotlight Cam are device features, placement and power options.

Spotlight Cam is an outdoor-only camera that comes with built-in LEDs and a security siren. As soon as motion is detected, Spotlight Cam starts streaming video and shines its lights to show you a clear picture in any setting. If you see something suspicious, you can also activate the siren in the app for added protection.

Unlike Spotlight Cam, Stick Up Cam doesn’t have built-in lights and can go anywhere indoors or out. All Stick Up Cams and Spotlight Cams are available in battery, plug-in and solar power options. However, Stick Up Cam is also available with Power over Ethernet (Stick Up Cam Elite) so you can connect it directly to your router, whereas Spotlight Cam has an option for hardwired installation (Spotlight Cam Mount) so you can connect it to outdoor electrical boxes.

What’s the dual power? How do I change the power source?

Stick Up Cam Battery, Stick Up Cam Plug-In and Stick Up Cam Solar have options for dual power. This means that they have primary power sources with a backup power source to keep you connected.

Stick Up Cam Solar comes with two power sources with your purchase. It uses the Quick-Release Battery Pack to keep your camera powered and the Solar Panel to keep the battery charged.

Stick Up Cam Plug-In comes with an AC adapter that plugs into standard power outlets, and you can also purchase a Quick-Release Battery Pack (sold separately) for dual power. With the battery pack inserted, Stick Up Cam Plug-In will be powered by the adapter and will use the battery as backup.

Stick Up Cam Battery comes with a Quick-Release Battery Pack, and you can also purchase the Indoor/Outdoor Power Adapter (sold separately) to plug it into standard power outlets. When plugged into an outlet, Stick Up Cam Battery will be powered by the adapter and will use the battery as backup.
