Built-in eMMC
Local event recordings use 8 GB built into the S220. No microSD card is required for that onboard route.
Condition Manufacturer Renewed (Excellent Condition)
Build the equipment total: Choose one to four cameras, use a HomeBase 3 you already own or add one where needed. Open the setup builder.
Included items: Read this listing's contents before choosing accessories. A condition grade alone does not tell you which parts or packaging are included.
Compatibility: Works on its own — records to built-in 8GB eMMC storage (no microSD slot). Pairing is optional: HomeBase 3 or HomeBase Professional S1 if you want hub-based storage and features.
Check each listing for the exact model pairing and included parts. Unavailable options are left out.

Sit straight. Stop blinking. The SoloCam S220 has returned for its second school year with 2K event video, a solar panel on its head and absolutely no spotlight for the class portrait.
The yearbook caption: previously used and sold as Manufacturer Renewed in the Excellent cosmetic class, this S220 works on its own over 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi with 8 GB onboard. If you want it paired to a hub, the HomeBase 3 is the documented option; HomeBase 2 and HomeBase Mini pairing is not confirmed for T8134, so ask us before buying a base for this camera. At night, infrared footage is monochrome because the school budget did not approve a spotlight.
CamGuard Australia
Condition: Manufacturer Renewed (Excellent Condition). The camera was previously used, then renewed by the manufacturer. Light cosmetic marks remain possible; it ships in renewed non-retail packaging.
System: no HomeBase is required. It works standalone on 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi with 8 GB built-in eMMC. The HomeBase 3 is the documented optional pairing; eufy's own pages disagree about the older HomeBase 2 and the HomeBase Mini, so we do not promise those — ask us before relying on hub pairing.
Limits: the S220 has no spotlight, so infrared footage is monochrome at night. There is no continuous recording, no cloud storage, no NAS/RTSP and no Apple Home support.
The S220 is not a first-day freshman. It was previously used, returned through the manufacturer’s renewal programme and renewed by the manufacturer before this second school year began.
Excellent is the top renewed cosmetic class, not a promise that no hand has ever touched the uniform. Light cosmetic marks can remain, particularly when the casing is examined up close or tilted into strong light. On a wall, those marks do not rewrite the camera’s published specification.
Renewed non-retail packaging replaces the glossy back-to-school carton. It is the practical box that gets the camera to class, not the part anyone mounts above the garage.
No. Excellent is the tidiest renewed condition class and still permits light handling or cosmetic marks. If untouched presentation matters more than the camera’s function, renewed stock is the wrong school photo package.
The yearbook committee finally used numbers that describe the camera rather than adjectives about “capturing memories.”
No. The documented S220 frame rate is 15 fps. It is suited to event security capture; do not buy it expecting a high-frame-rate sports camera because the magpie swoops quickly.
The moving backdrop is the yearbook joke. The technical point stays still: SoloCam S220 has no spotlight; its infrared night footage is monochrome.
No. The S220 has no built-in spotlight. Infrared night vision records the dark scene in monochrome; a setting cannot add missing illumination hardware.
After sunset, the S220 uses infrared night vision. The resulting footage is monochrome, which is the camera behaving exactly as designed rather than failing an arts elective.
The absence of a spotlight also means there is no bright deterrent lamp built into this model. It can still use two-way audio and its 75 dB siren, but it will not wash the driveway in colour-producing light.
Choose the S220 when discreet infrared coverage suits the location. Choose another model when colour night footage and a visible spotlight are central requirements, especially if the house treats every parcel arrival as a red-carpet event.
The S220 can work without a HomeBase because its local event archive already has a desk inside the camera.
Local event recordings use 8 GB built into the S220. No microSD card is required for that onboard route.
Motion events are the format. There is no continuous recording mode running through every class period.
eufy states that the S220 does not support cloud storage or NAS/RTSP. The computer lab cannot negotiate an exception.
The documented standalone storage is 8 GB built-in eMMC; the S220 does not need a microSD card. Do not promise a card slot or card expansion that is not part of this model’s fact set.
No. Optional HomeBase 3 does not turn the S220 into a 24/7 continuous camera. Recording mode and storage destination are separate questions.
Unlike an add-on camera that needs a base to wake up, the S220 can join 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi directly and use its own storage. The HomeBase 3 is the base eufy documents for it, and even that is optional. HomeBase 2 and HomeBase Mini pairing is not confirmed for T8134, so ask us before buying a base for this camera.
Connect directly to compatible 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi, record events to the built-in 8 GB and use the eufy Security app.
The HomeBase 3 is the documented optional base and it adds central storage. Facial recognition is a HomeBase 3 enhancement, not a standalone promise.
An older S220 page says pre-HomeBase 3 bases are unsupported, and eufy's material is not consistent about it. We do not promise HomeBase 2 or HomeBase Mini pairing, so ask us before buying one for this camera.
No HomeBase is required, and none is included. A HomeBase 3 is the documented optional base; HomeBase 2 and HomeBase Mini are not confirmed for this camera, so ask us before buying one.
No. The S220 uses 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi only. If a router combines bands under one network name, make sure the setup process can present a compatible 2.4 GHz route.
The 0.9 W panel is built into the top of the camera. Mounting decides whether it gets recess in the sun or spends the year facing a shaded brick wall.
No. It is eufy’s optimal-sunlight scenario under average use. Shade, weather, frequent motion, long events and live viewing can consume more power than the panel collects.
On-device human detection helps separate a person from ordinary motion. The PIR sensor is rated to detect movement up to 10 metres under suitable conditions, which is useful hall-monitor range rather than a promise across the entire oval.
eufy publishes a 200-metre Wi-Fi figure only for a clear and open environment. Walls, metal, neighbouring networks and the mysterious cupboard containing every router’s worst day can shrink real range considerably.
Two-way audio supports a conversation at the camera, while the 75 dB siren can add an audible warning. Alexa and Google Assistant are supported. Apple Home is not.
Renewed stock is repacked, so the current parcel promise and the original new-retail inventory are kept in separate folders.
Ask for confirmation before purchase. The official new-retail list includes a quick-start guide and positioning sticker, but renewed repacking means those paper items should not be assumed.
The S220 earns a place where compact solar event coverage, onboard storage and no required hub matter more than colour night footage or an endless timeline.
You want standalone 2.4 GHz operation, 8 GB local event storage, integrated solar and accept light marks in the Excellent renewed class.
You want optional hub features such as facial recognition and already own, or will buy, a HomeBase 3 — the base eufy documents for this camera.
You need a spotlight, colour night footage, cloud/NAS, Apple Home, 5 GHz Wi-Fi or 24/7 continuous recording.
“Worked alone, stored locally, charged in the sun, never once pretended to own a spotlight.” Underneath: Manufacturer Renewed (Excellent Condition), with light marks possible.

Before mounting the S220, confirm a usable 2.4 GHz signal and direct sunlight, update the eufy Security app to version 4.6.4 or later, and verify renewed paperwork if a printed guide or positioning sticker is essential. We still make a best effort to dispatch the same day; same-day to 1 business day is typical, and busy periods can extend handling, though that is rare.
