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 OHWOAI, we focus on performance and brand reputation for the security cameras we manufacture, so power consumption is relatively low. OHWOAI's wireless solar panel and POE powered security cameras have a high-quality 1TB built-in HDD and H265+ recording compression technology, so two 3-megapixel security cameras can record for more than a month if they are constantly recording. Eight cameras can be added. OHWOAI's wireless solar panel and POE powered security cameras also have an automatic overwrite function, so if there is not enough capacity, old data is automatically covered and recording continues. 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 them 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 an additional $3.60 a month.

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