This 2K Outdoor Solar Security Camera Is Going for Pennies, Amazon Is Aiming to Clear Out Stock
Sometimes you don't have to wait for Prime Day or Black Friday to score the lowest prices on Amazon. And actually, it just dropped a record low price on one of the most popular and easy-to-use outdoor cameras available: the eufy Security SoloCam S220. For a short while, this 2K solar-powered security camera can be yours for $69 which is a whopping 46% discount from its regular list price of $130. See at Amazon For outdoor security cameras, the SoloCam S220 is a low-maintenance choice that is easy to install and easier to maintain. With its solar panel built right in, you'll never again waste your time climbing up and down ladders to replace batteries or dealing with heavy power cables. Several hours of direct sun per day are enough to keep the camera running continuously, and it gives you total peace of mind with virtually no upkeep. Its compact and weather-resistant (IP67-rated) housing can tolerate snow, rain and scorching summer sun. The SoloCam S220 delivers a crisp 2K video resolution and captures every detail with breathtaking clarity. Faces, license plates and even small movements are clearly visible during the day or night, thanks to built-in infrared night vision. The wide field of view covers a lot of area of your property: you can see driveways, entrance points, and backyards with equal ease, all through the eufy Security app on your phone for free. If you're looking for an easy method for increasing the security of your home, capabilities like human detection make sure you get notified about what matters most and avoid unnecessary alerts due to pets or passing cars. Instant alerts appear on your smartphone and notify you what's happening outside your home the moment something gets detected. Two-way audio lets you hear and talk straight through the camera picture, so you can greet guests or deter unwanted visitors. Among the most important advantages of the SoloCam S220 is its commitment to value and privacy: you don't need to pay recurring subscription fees. Unlike nearly all competition which has recurring subscription costs for cloud storage, eufy's SoloCam saves recorded events on board, which means you keep full ownership of your clips and can play back important ones at will. The camera needs just a 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi connection to operate, quickly installing in seconds and with complete flexibility. The provided mounts provide seamless wall, eave or outdoor fixture installation, while the single-piece design becomes nearly imperceptible in most outdoor environments. If you're looking to improve your home security, this record-low Amazon deal is a no-brainer. See at Amazon

Get two for under $20 — Anker's SmartTrack link 2-pack is an affordable AirTag alternative
Losing your keys and other items is no fun. At best, losing something meaningful is a significant inconvenience and at worst, it can be a life-altering problem. That's where devices like the beloved Apple AirTags and Tile trackers can be a game-changer. But the best item trackers can be pricey. Thankfully, Anker has its SmartTrack Link trackers for $19 for a 2-pack. At full price, a single AirTag costs $29, which means this deal will net you two trackers for $10 less than the price of one AirTag. It sounds like a no-brainer (sorry, Android users, this is iOS only). These trackers have full access to Apple's Find My network, which means if you lose an item, you'll be able to find it. All you need to do is use the pre-installed Find My app (included with your iPhone) and add the SmartTrack Link to the Items tab. In moments, you'll be able to keep track of two of your belongings for $19. Item trackers are an investment that can save you money in the long run. If you need to replace the fob for your car, it'll cost substantially more than $19. And that's only from a purely dollars-and-cents perspective — there's also the stress of dealing with the loss of something important. What's also cool about trackers like the Anker SmartTrack Link is that they work in reverse, meaning you can find your phone using the tracker by double-tapping the button. Yes, they work even if your phone is in silent mode, letting you hear the alert. There's a cool feature that'll give you instant left-behind alerts via the eufy Security app, and it doesn't require an extra subscription, further adding to the value these trackers bring to the table. You can even use the app to share access with friends and family, allowing them to help you keep track of things. Perhaps the most significant value proposition is the replaceable CR2032. No longer will you need to buy new trackers when the battery runs low — simply replace the battery, and you can continue tracking your goodies. This might be my favorite early Prime Day deal because it's affordable and can save you money, which is what really makes a deal stand out in the incredibly competitive market.
