I had a SimpliSafe home security system installed two years ago. In the two years I've had, the cameras work probably 5% of the time. My system was professionally installed and the cameras are wireless (solar). All of my cameras stay well charged, probably because they're never busy recording anything. The installer even had me purchase a Google Nest wifi extender - it makes no difference. Out of my five cameras, at least one is always down, inexplicably. They literally record next to nothing. I live across the street from a school - my doorbell camera hasn't recorded anything for two days and my front yard camera hasn't recorded anything for a day. Again, I live across the street from a school - there's movement, lots of it. I've checked my settings and that's not the problem - the problem is, these are the most garbage cameras ever. If cameras are a big reason why you're considering SimpliSafe, you will be sorely disappointed in your purchase. Maybe 1% of the time, I can turn on a camera for a live view - the rest of the time it will say the camera is disconnected, even though it's not (it's on and the status is good). By the way, this isn't a new problem - it's sucked this bad for the whole two years. $1000+ absolutely wasted.
