Frequently Asked Questions
What are solar CCTV cameras and how do they work?
+
Solar CCTV cameras use built-in solar panels to convert sunlight into electricity, which is stored in an internal rechargeable battery. This allows the cameras to operate 24/7 without any wired power connection. Maizic solar CCTV cameras feature high-capacity batteries that provide backup recording even on cloudy days or at night.
Do solar CCTV cameras work at night?
+
Yes. Maizic solar CCTV cameras are equipped with color night vision technology that captures full-color footage in low-light conditions using infrared LEDs. The camera battery — charged throughout the day — powers continuous recording through the night, so you never have a gap in your security coverage.
What is the difference between 4G SIM and WiFi solar cameras?
+
WiFi solar cameras connect to your home or office WiFi network and are best suited for locations within router range. 4G SIM-based solar cameras use a mobile data SIM card to transmit footage over a cellular network, making them ideal for remote locations like farms, construction sites, or areas without a WiFi router — anywhere there is mobile signal.
Can solar CCTV cameras work during monsoon or cloudy weather in India?
+
Yes. Maizic solar cameras include a high-capacity rechargeable battery that stores enough energy to keep the camera running for 2–3 days without direct sunlight. The cameras are also rated IP66 waterproof, meaning they are fully protected against heavy rain and dust — making them well-suited for all Indian weather conditions.
How do I install a solar CCTV camera?
+
Maizic solar CCTV cameras are designed for DIY installation in under 2 minutes — no electrician or wiring required. Simply mount the camera on a wall or pole using the included hardware, connect it to the Maizic app on your Android or iOS smartphone, and point the solar panel towards sunlight. Full video installation guides are available on Maizic's YouTube channel.
Which SIM cards are supported in Maizic 4G solar cameras?
+
Maizic 4G solar CCTV cameras support all major Indian SIM cards including Jio, Airtel, Vi (Vodafone Idea), and BSNL. The cameras accept standard nano-SIM cards and work on 4G LTE networks across India. Some models also support 5G-ready SIMs for future-proofing.
What storage options are available for solar CCTV cameras?
+
Maizic solar cameras support two storage methods: local storage via a micro-SD card slot (up to 128GB) and cloud recording through the Maizic app. SD card storage lets you save footage directly on the device, while cloud storage allows remote access to recordings from anywhere via smartphone.
Are Maizic solar CCTV cameras suitable for farm and outdoor security?
+
Yes. Maizic solar CCTV cameras are purpose-built for outdoor and remote environments. With IP66 weatherproofing, 4G SIM connectivity, AI human detection, and up to 100-metre night vision range, they are widely used for farm security, construction sites, warehouses, and rural properties where wired power and internet are unavailable.
