Firmware Version: 1.1.3 Build 250822 Rel.1035n

Hello TP-Link Team,

 

I recently bought a Tapo C660 KIT and noticed that, although the camera has built-in spotlights and supports Full-Color Night Vision, there is currently no option in the Tapo app to automatically turn on the spotlight when motion is detected.

 

Many other Tapo models (e.g., C320WS, C325WB, C420) already support the “Turn on spotlight when motion detected” feature, so it would be great if this could be added to the C660 through a future firmware update.

 

My setup:
- Model: Tapo C660 KIT (EU version)
- Hardware Version: V1.60
- Firmware Version: 1.1.3 Build 250822 Rel.1035n
- Power source: Solar + Battery

 

Please forward this as a feature request to the development team — the camera performs very well, and adding this automation would make it even better for night-time security use.

 

Thank you very much!


Best regards,  


Lali

Hi,
The feature you request is the Smart Mode on the Night Mode Settings page. Currently, the battery-powered cameras do not have this mode, but selecting Full-Color mode may have a similar performance.

 

For example, when the Tapo C660 is in Night mode and selects Full-Color mode, it will enter sleep mode when no event is detected, and the spotlight will turn off. When an event is detected, the camera will wake up, and the spotlight will turn on. However, manually accessing the camera in the Tapo app, such as watching its live feed, will also wake up the camera, and the spotlight will turn on. 

 

Best Regards
