Floodlight Camera House Switch

150dpi — Fri, 05 May 2023 17:52:45 GMT

hey I have a question. I'm interested in this product but would like to confirm how it behaves before I buy.

I'll be replacing my existing outdoor light with the nest cam flood light. The light is in a relay with another light. 2 lights in total. What happens when you turn off the light switch inside the house? does the cam and floodlight still work? I wouldn't want to keep the other light on at all times just so I can power the cam.

Appreciate any feedback or help.

If that switch controls power to both your lights, that's not going to work. The Nest Cam with Floodlight is designed to replace an existing floodlight and requires a connection to your home’s power that provides 100-240V AC, 50/60Hz.

Hey 150dpi,

It looks like davidking was able to answer your question on this. I just wanted to jump in and see if there was anything more you needed or to see if you're all set for now. If there's more we can do, just let us know.
