Model: Tapo C210  
Hardware Version: V3
Firmware Version: 1.4.7

I've had the camera for about 2.5 years, have been using it 24/7 to monitor the kid. For the past 4 months there has been an incredibly irritating high pitch noise coming from the device when it was in night mode. Ever since that i switched to day mode and the noise went away. Just recently i noticed that the noise came back and no matter if i switch between day/night mode it doesn't go away. I've tried restarting it, resetting it etc, nothing works. It has the latest firmware etc. I think there's something wrong with the hardware but would appreciate an experts opinion. I've uploaded a video of it (increase the volue to hear it, my camera couldn't pick it up well).

Hi,
It's recommended to confirm whether the high-pitched noise is coming from the camera or the power adapter. You can move the camera as far as possible from the power adapter to check.

Please ensure the camera is powered by the original power adapter and cord that come with it in the package. You can also try plugging the power adapter into a different socket to see if that helps.

Best Regards

  @Solla-topee hi, i can guarantee you that the noise is coming specifically from the optical part of the camera, not the adapter, not the servo motors, not the power supply.
