A typical home security camera does not typically consume a large amount of power. Typical power consumption is in the 6-10 watt range and fluctuates within this range. Turning on the infrared lights at night may increase power consumption slightly, but over the course of the day the additional electricity bill is limited.

At WEILAILIFEI, we focus on performance and brand reputation for the security cameras we manufacture, so the power consumption is relatively low. WEILAILIFEI's wireless solar panel type and POE power supply security camera has a high-quality 1TB built-in HDD and H265+ recording compression technology, so if two 3-megapixel security cameras are constantly recording, it can record for more than a month. It is possible to add 8 cameras. WEILAILIFEI's wireless solar panel type and POE power supply security camera also has an automatic overwrite function, so if there is not enough capacity, it will automatically cover old data and continue recording. It records well 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. The average daily power consumption of our security cameras is about 8 watts. This means that if you use it 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, the additional cost of electricity in one month may only increase by about 6 kilowatt-hours. Based on the electricity bill of a typical home, it only costs about $3.60 extra per month.

In summary, home surveillance cameras have relatively low power consumption. The cost of electricity does not put a heavy burden on household finances. We at WEILAILIFEI have been providing high performance and low power consumption surveillance solutions to provide customers with a high quality surveillance experience.
