Eufy, the sub-brand of Anker, is renowned for its smart home security devices, and its latest release is designed for those who value sustainability. The new eufyCam E40 is a solar-powered security camera featuring full-color 2K night vision and easy integration with eufy’s HomeBase hubs for enabling other features. Its standout feature is its solar-charging capability that lets you recharge the camera with sunlight so that you can rely on grid electricity and save money in the long run. You can use the built-in solar panel or add an external one for even more energy coverage.
Compared to traditional security cameras, the eufyCam E40 delivers a significant upgrade in night-time recognition. Equipped with 2K MaxColor Vision, it captures full-color video even in extremely low-light conditions, without the need for additional lighting. This enhanced clarity enhances AI-powered human detection accuracy at night. It allows you to identify people and activities with the same precision as during daylight hours.
The EufyCam E40 features a built-in rechargeable 13,000 mAh battery that fully charges in just two hours of sunlight. Thanks to SolarPlus 2.0 technology, it can even recharge on cloudy days with as little as 2,500 lux. Its removable solar panel allows flexible installation, so you can mount the panel separately wherever it gets the best sun exposure.
The smart home security camera seamlessly pairs with the HomeBase S380 to unlock advanced BionicMind AI features. This setup provides intelligent event summaries using video splicing across devices and up to 16TB of expandable local storage. With BionicMind facial recognition, the system’s self-learning AI offers smarter identification of faces, bodies, and pets to provide a personalized home security experience. Additional AI-powered functions include Snapshot, Cross-Camera Tracking, and detailed Security Reports you can check for getting an overview. For voice control, the camera is compatible with Google Assistant, Alexa, and Apple HomeKit.

Alternatively, you can also pair it with HomeBase 2 for expandable local storage via a USB flash drive (up to 256GB). HomeBase 2 can also centrally manage over 30 eufy devices, including up to 16 cameras and 16 sensors, which can be a great feature to manage multiple security devices from one place.
The E40 battery-powered security camera features dual USB-C ports: one for connecting the solar panel and the other for pairing with the LongRange Module. This module enables high-speed video transmission over distances of 500 to 1,000 meters, making it ideal for large properties like estates, farms, and ranches.
Eufy has also introduced a similar kind of SoloCam E42, which offers 4K picture quality, 360-degree vision, and proactive intruder deterrence that are not available in the E40 model. If you are looking to buy, the eufyCam E40 2-Cam Kit with HomeBase S380 and a solar panel is priced at $400 on the official website, while the SoloCam E42 2-Cam Kit with HomeBase S380 costs $399.
