Ring's Floodlight Cam brings the outdoors to you at CES 2017
The Ring Floodlight Cam molds security cameras and smart lighting into one clever device.
Ring's $249 Floodlight Cam is available for preorder now.
Smart-home security startup Ring introduced a new camera to its lineup today -- the $249/£229/AU$379 Ring Floodlight Cam . Available for preorder now at Ring.com, the Floodlight Cam is slated to ship starting in April.
Unlike Ring's existing outdoor security camera, the $199 battery-powered Stick Up Cam, the Floodlight Cam is a hard-wired product designed to replace your current floodlight. And, like Kuna and Toucan, Ring's latest camera works closely with its integrated lighting to deter intruders.
Here's an overview of the Floodlight Cam's specs:
- Do-it-yourself install
- Wi-Fi-enabled
- High-definition 1080p
- Live video streaming
- 100-decible siren
- Cloud recording
- 270-degree motion detection
- Integrated LED lights
- Infrared night vision
- Two-way audio
But like Stick Up Cam and many other home security cameras, the Floodlight Cam is supposed to send you an alert whenever it detects motion. You can also sound the siren, flash the floodlights and talk through the built-in speaker for added deterrence.
In addition to Stick Up Cam and the new Floodlight Cam, Ring also sells a $199 Video Doorbell that acts as a digital peephole between your phone and any visitors. Floodlight Cam helps to round out Ring's outdoor security lineup with a more robust camera. While the Floodlight Cam will likely require a more involved installation process than the Stick Up Cam, this new camera is a compelling addition to Ring's outdoor security offerings.
