C210 allow it to be added to a hub so it doesn't require it's own microSD Card
I have a H200 hub and various C420s and bought a C210 to complement my external cameras with an internal one, however I was disappointed to discover that it needed it's own microSD card rather than being able to be linked to the hub and use the one in that.
Are there any plans to allow self contained storage cameras like the C100 to be able to use the storage built in to the H200 hubs in the future?

@El_Sayal Yes it is very useful not only that we have to add micro sd to each C210 camera but also consider this senario someone break into home and he destroy or stole the camera, he will still need to find the hub which can be hidden somewhere. So I highly recommend this feature.

@El_Sayal I agree, all cameras must be able to record to the hub...
It seems it wasn't thought through properly when designing the wired cameras.
From a business point of view, there's no reason to buy all Tapo cameras if they won't work together as a system - some other makes are cheaper!

@El_Sayal So my C210 will not connect with the 200 Hup and my external cameras? Haven't installed them yet, still collecting goodies for our next home. Peter

@bojangles54 That is correct, it requires it's own microSD card to be installed in it (or subscription to the cloud) and connects directly to your home wifi. It's still fully accessible via the Tapo app in an identical manner to the other cameras though.

@canerceki spot on, waste of money to have many SD cards when the hup is the perfect centre for all of them!!!

@El_Sayal It is a pity that the HUB isn't a hup per say, only for a few items, waste of money having to buy all these SD cards imho!
