Model: TC40  
Hardware Version: V2
Firmware Version:

Is there a way to delete video from my TC40 sd card. I have found that the outside camera records any rain at night as motion, due to the LED's illuminating every rain drop passing the camera. The result is that it records every few seconds. I would like some way to batch clean up the video list. It's a shame Tapo didn't look at AI solutions for this.

The videos stored on the SD card cannot be deleted individually. You can delete all videos by formatting the SD card. 

 

The main concern of your case should be the false detection, this article should help, take a look. How to reduce motion detections from rain, snow or insects,etc
