Our take

The C425 prioritises installation flexibility: a magnetic mount, rechargeable battery and optional A200 solar panel. Local microSD recording avoids making a cloud plan the default. It is worth considering for a garden or side entrance when charging access and wireless coverage are manageable.

Why consider it

  • Magnetic mounting and no permanent power cable.
  • Local microSD storage up to 512 GB.
  • Person, pet and vehicle detection without an AI subscription.

What to know

  • The 300-day battery figure assumes 230 seconds of daily use in manufacturer testing.
  • A solar panel and memory card are separate purchases.
  • Connects to 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi, not 5 GHz.

Important limitation

The official page lists 142° in marketing and 150° diagonal in specifications. Confirm your regional hardware revision before comparing angles.
