Hi I have just purchased 2 Kami wireless outside cameras , all seemed fine but after charging batteries had to totally reset cams , intermittently keep losing motion detection and seem to work when they want to , was really pleased with them and have subscribed to cloud storage but not sure now if they are as good as first thought , anyone else got any tips please
Hi, what’s signal strength like?
Hello @9656MG Welcome to the community! We are all so glad you’ve joined.
I am sorry to hear about the motion detection issues you’ve been having. That’s a really good question @garyagh.
What is your signal strength? Have there been any other changes to your set up?
Signal is good and only change is that I had to disconnect and charge batterys , had to re connect after
were also dropping the setting of always detecting motion but that seems to have rectified itself for now
Interesting, do you use a memory card?
@9656MG Thanks for the feedback. Glad it’s resolved. And, again, welcome to the community. Glad you’ve decided to join us
I understand the alert element will not work in the uk, but if Cove had a external and internal siren it would be perfectly well for many uk households. Alternatively why not add an external siren to the Kami system?

Hi, I’m Bill.
Just got my YI doorbell camera. The directions said to plug the battery in and that the red light would blink indicating that it was charging. Mine did not blink. Just a solid red light. Is it OK? How long does it take to charge?
Hey Bill @wcdavidson Welcome to the community! Glad to have you.
A solid red light is okay. It will turn green when ready!
Enjoy the community! Great place to learn and share
Hi everyone, coming to you from Ohio have been with yi cameras for about four four months now. Have loved them since day one. My family loves to watch live feed on there phones and talk thru the mic. I just now discovered the forum, can’t wait to go thru all the different topics
Welcome to the community forum. Lovely to have you join up
Thankyou glad to be part of the yi/kami community
@Dazed85 Welcome, again! So, glad to have you apart of the community! Love to hear that your family gets in on the fun. It can be a source of entertainment as well as bring that extra peace of mind
Hi Stickman!
I’m trying to connect my working Kami Smart Security Starter kit with Openhab, my home automation system running on RaspberryPi through TI CC2531 usb device sniffer.
Have you some experience with it or, in general, do you know if some python library exist to operate/listen to Kami zigbee hub and sensors ?
Thanks,
Alex

Apologies to all. The forum experienced a small glitch and was down for a few days. We are back up and running as smooth as ever.
Hi all. I’m Colin from the UK. Been using yi cameras for about 3 years. Recently signed up to the cloud function to give peace of mind. Looking out for the doorbell which seems elusive at the moment. Look forward to gaining and sharing some knowledge and experience. Cheers
