The Black Friday sale on AliExpress has left one of those offers that solves a real problem for very little money: the V380 Pro Solar and 4G for € 40.79 with code BFES04. It covers three zones at the same time, works without cables, without Wi-Fi and without plugs, and comes with a solar panel included. It’s just this type of camera that a homeowner installs to “stay quiet”… which in many forums is actually called “anti-random”. The differential advantage of this model is easy to understand once you use it: it combines three lenses and three simultaneous displays. The upper part covers 180 degrees stably, and the lower part is a PTZ lens capable of rotating 320 degrees horizontally and 90 degrees vertically. In practice, you can monitor the main entrance, side entrance and critical point (such as a door, garage or garden) without having to install three different devices. As for the second residence, a plot of land or a place with several entrances, this is golden. Moreover, quality accompanies. The resolution of each lens is 4MP, providing a total of 12MP in triple view. During the day it is clear, and at night it provides color night vision with a range of about 30 metres. None of those “gray” recordings where it is difficult to distinguish a person from a shadow are identified: here faces, license plates and movements are identified. Its approach is designed for complex places: plots without electricity, country houses, storage rooms without sockets or areas without Wi-Fi access. Simply insert the 4G SIM card, put in the solar panel and forget it. An 8-watt panel powers the camera every day, and the 8,000 mAh battery handles long nights, cloudy winters, or low-light days with ease. If you live in Spain, it’s normal for your camera to come with a pre-installed SIM card with a 100MB trial. If you don’t use it, just replace it with your own. The important thing to understand is that here you are not relying on the router, repeaters or sockets: details that make the difference if what you are looking for is no installation. A deterrent camera isn’t of much use if it doesn’t warn you quickly. This feature does just that: PIR detection, instant mobile notifications, audible alert, and automatic tracking when someone enters the frame. And it doesn’t just warn: it also allows you to speak in real-time to scare off intruders, give instructions to a delivery person, or communicate with someone on the property. The V380 Pro app, while not the most elegant on the market visually, works well: it allows you to review recordings, configure zones, adjust sensitivity, create preset modes, and share the camera with other users. The IP66 certification shows it’s ready for outdoor living without dramas. Rain or direct sun, hot days or very cold nights: the camera holds up without any complications. And since it doesn’t require wires, you can move it, reposition it, or reposition the solar panel when the light changes seasonally. For those looking to monitor an empty house, warehouse, warehouse, garden or even an outdoor parking lot, it is an “install once and forget” solution. If you want more shows in this hands-on way, choosing my favorite ABC section is usually my go-to.
