I really like the Aqara stuff I have now and have been looking for a good solution to replace my Xfinity home security system and hadn’t even considered them.

Do they have any outdoor cameras? My quick search didn’t find any.

They have a video doorbell, but that’s it for outside stuff. I ended up going with an Eve camera for outside and using HSV. So still remote storage, but at least it’s properly encrypted.

What’s HSV? Does the Eve integrate in with HomeKit/home assistant the way Aqara does?

[–] Ghostalmedia@lemmy.world 2 points 8 months ago (1 children)

HomeKit Secure video.

Eve is basically HomeKit-first right now. I can’t speak for home assistant unfortunately.

Rad. Thanks!

I can deal with no home assistant right now. I have everything bridged into HomeKit anyway.
