eufy SoloCam S340 vs AOSU SolarCam P1 SE
Both target buyers who want outdoor solar cameras without a required monthly storage plan. The key difference is architecture: eufy concentrates more capability in one pan/tilt dual-lens camera, while AOSU centralizes multi-camera recordings on an indoor base.
| Decision | eufy SoloCam S340 | AOSU SolarCam P1 SE |
|---|---|---|
| Video | 3K wide + 2K telephoto dual camera | 2K |
| Coverage | 135° FOV + ~355° pan / 70° tilt | Fixed camera positions in multi-camera system |
| Power | Battery + removable 2.2W solar panel | Battery + solar |
| Local storage | Built-in 8GB eMMC; HomeBase 3 compatible | 32GB on indoor aosuBase |
| Monthly fee required for local recording | No | No |
| Open protocols | Not verified from official model sources used | Not verified from official model sources used |
Storage resilience
AOSU’s indoor base has an architectural advantage if an outdoor camera is stolen: the recordings are centralized inside. eufy stores 8GB on the S340 itself unless you add HomeBase 3, which changes the storage topology.
Coverage strategy
The S340 can pan and tilt across a broad area and uses a wide plus telephoto camera. That can reduce camera count for a yard or driveway. AOSU’s P1 SE system instead spreads coverage across multiple cameras and supports up to four compatible cameras on one aosuBase.
Solar expectations
AOSU advertises continuous operation with roughly two hours of sunlight per day; eufy pairs the S340 with a 2.2W panel. In either case, shade, event frequency, temperature and winter sun can materially change battery balance.
