Model: Tapo C310  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version:

I have been using a TAPO C320WS for a couple of weeks.

It is way too sensitive to rain, especially at night. Even with the sensitivity set to low it is still being constantly activated when it is raining so I am being sent alerts every 30 seconds and end up turning off the camera (which defeats the object of having a CCTV camera).

A friend has a Blink camera that is not activated by rain in this way. I guess they have some software with distinguishes between rain and other motion. Why has TAPO not done this. I wish I had known about this problem before buying the TAPO.

I have a couple of C320WS, 1 sensis the rain the other doesn't, the difference being one is under the eves, so you might find a cover over the top stops the false alarms, I appreciate not an elegant solution though!
