TechNow Review: HeimVision HMD2

HMD2, Technow, camera, Heimvision

Outdoor security cameras are now less expensive and even more useful in recent times. I’ve been testing the HeimVision HMD2 for the last few months and it proves you don’t need to spend a fortune to get a decent outdoor security camera. It’s also worth saying that you don’t need to buy an entire system all at once either. The HMD2 is a good starter camera that you can add to as you see the need, to increase visibility in more areas of your home or property.

Unlike a lot of security cameras that require hardwiring into your electricity and home network, the HeimVision HMD2 is completely wireless and designed for indoor or outdoor use. It has a 6,000mAh battery built-in that’s good enough for up to four months of use, but you can also add a solar panel accessory (sold separately) to keep the rechargeable battery topped up. In my time of testing, the battery was always full with the additional solar panel plugged in. However, it really isn’t a big deal taking the camera down every few months to give it a charge.
