Issue:

I cannot add TC82 camera in Home Assistant - is the TC82 not supported because there is no camera account ability?

Thanks.

  @rret had same issue. Seems the battery models (even if you have the solar panel or permanently plugged in) didn't have the camera account option as drains battery too quickly. I have added the camera via the TP-Link HACS with IP address and TP account but only giving very basic switch options and battery monitoring. I wanted to use the motion sensor as trigger for other entities but can't find an option for that as a sensor.
