Wyze’s New Bulb Cam Turns Any Light Bulb Socket Into a Security Camera

The next step in smart home security transforms existing fixtures into batteries for your surveillance equipment.

If you don’t want to deal with the hassle of setting up cords or batteries for an outdoor security camera, you’re in luck: the new Wyze Bulb Cam is powered by your outdoor lighting fixtures.

The new camera is linked to a smart light bulb that you can screw into any existing socket. Both of these devices work in tandem to provide brightness and surveillance capabilities, and you can control them from the Wyze app.

The Bulb Cam provides a 160-degree field of view with 2K HD resolution, wide dynamic range and color night vision capabilities. It comes equipped with a two-way microphone and can record up to 256GB of continuous local footage (though a microSD card is not included with your purchase of the Bulb Cam).

Paid subscribers to Wyze’s Cam Unlimited Pro feature can receive AI-powered push notifications when suspicious motion is detected on the camera.

Wyze co-founder and CMO Dave Crosby explained that the Bulb Cam was devised as a way to help provide security for outdoor areas where an outlet isn’t readily available.

«The Wyze Bulb Cam makes keeping an eye on those places easy with a high-quality camera that’s affordable and simple to set up,» he said. «It’s literally as easy as screwing in a light bulb.»

The Wyze Bulb Cam is retailing for $50 — any accessory bulbs you need to buy will be an additional $17 each. Up to five Wyze accessory bulbs can be connected within a single Bulb Cam system.
