Very needed

That's a great suggestion! Integrating the T100 sensor with the Tapo C425 to start recording upon motion detection would indeed enhance its functionality significantly, especially given the limitations of the camera's built-in sensor. This kind of smart action could provide a more efficient monitoring solution without relying solely on the camera's sensitivity.

It would be helpful for others to voice their support for this feature as well, so hopefully, the team will consider it for future updates. Thank you for bringing this enhancement idea forward!

Yes please make this work. I am looking in to the C425 camera, and the bad reveiws on motion activation is holding me back. Or is it already working. Looking at the H200 homepage it says that you can link your smart cameras and sensors, and C425 is on the supported list for cameras???

 

 

From H200 page

Tapo H200 Smart Hub Compatible Products

Connect your Tapo smart sensors, buttons, Sub-1G switches, battery-powered cameras/video doorbells with the Tapo H200 to bulid your smart home ecosystem. Control all of them through the Tapo app and smart living starts here.

The cameras just need to be able to trigger recording from automation. Therefore the are a number of triggers which can be used, i.e a movement sensor or even from other cameras or doorbell in different locations.
