Firmware Version:

Suggestion to have an always on option for Tapo outdoor cameras, especially if they are connected to solar. It is understandable that this is not default or recommended due to the battery drain, but if a customer wants to charge the battery every week or attach to the solar panel (mine is currently always at 100% charged), that should be their perogative.

Hi,
Do you mean to have the Always On option thus the camera won't go into sleep mode?
Would you please describe the usage scenario about why you want the Always On option for evaluation?
Best Regards

  @Solla-topee Hello! Yes, so the camera is always recording, rather than only triggered by motion. Similar to a dash cam, recording could occur over on a loop and motion could still trigger flags on certain clips.
