Model: Tapo D225  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 1.1.13

So I purchased the Tapo D225 mostly for the Always-On mode. I put a transformer and bypassed the chime. when I put it in Hardwired mode, then it charges and all is good.

 

However, when I put it in Always-On mode and go through questions, and say that Ive bypassed my chime, it takes it ..but within a minute it stops charging although it still shows always-on mode but really not. needless to say it also does not record 24/7.

 

I am not sure where to start looking? different transformer? SD card?

 

On another note, is it possible to just get a transformer and connect it straight to the doorbell and not go through the chime wiring? logically should be possible..and it would cut down the guesswork as to whats wrong.

 

ps: my power is 220v here.

Go to storage and recording.... Then recording schedule.... Click edit... Highlight all to blue for continuous recording. 

 

Also you must have a SD card.

Amazing !yes!

 

In all honesty I figured that out like yesterday only after trying 2 different transformers multiple resets etc..i..but thanks for info.

 

Maybe it's me, but I think the app needs a bit more clarity and a couple more options. Ie:when you click always on mode to on,one would think that it is recording 24/7.0and the schedule would be to where you don't want it to record or notify you.

 

Anyways it's sorted and I hope it helps someone else ...
