1.0 out of 5 stars Disappointed, July 4, 2008
This review is from: Logitech WiLife Digital Video Security--Hidden Add-On Camera (Electronics)
We purchased this camera as an add-on to our system. Thirteen months after purchase the camera quit working and all troubleshooting has failed. Wilife will only repair the device if it is under warranty.

1.0 out of 5 stars Does not work, November 28, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Logitech WiLife Digital Video Security--Hidden Add-On Camera (Electronics)
Great concept, terrible execution. I have (used to have) two add-on hidden cameras connected to the WiLife system with regular in-door camera.

Power connector on the back of the camera/clock simply does not connect, if you finally wiggle it into woking position, every time you dust around it or even walk by, you are risking disconnecting the power. After a while (for me it was 2 and 6 weeks), hidden camera stops connecting to the server, just works as a clock. Amazon replaced the first failed camera, replacement stopped connecting after a couple of weeks. At this point, neither of two cameras connect, just using them as clocks, even that is frustrating because after the power loss the time has to be set, and that is a project since while pressing the buttons, the clock is losing power.

I am dreading contacting Logitech support for warranty replacement, had terrible experience while installing the system: I could not connect any of the cameras to the server, their solution was 'install newer server software, we have an upgrade on the web-site', turns out that I was attempting to connect through USB hub, as soon as I plugged directly to the USB port on my computer, all three cameras connected.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good but a bit touchy., April 3, 2009
This review is from: Logitech WiLife Digital Video Security--Hidden Add-On Camera (Electronics)
I like this product for how it blends in to the decor, has great photo imaging; however the cord is touchy and will quit working at times.
