I received the security cameraΒ as a gift from a friend. The camera was easy to set up and took me under 30 minutes to install. I chose to put the camera on the center of my door using command strips since I am leasing my unit. Using command strips to hang the camera has allowed for easy removal of the camera when I need to recharge it. I recharge it every few months - the product states that a full charge lasts for 120 days.Β
