Anyway, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zdnet.com\/home-and-office\/smart-home\/eufys-new-smart-security-cameras-do-things-that-amazons-cant\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">eufy sold its first security camera in 2018<\/a> and now five years later the company has released its third generation of home security devices. eufy&#8217;s goal with this generation of security cameras and devices was to minimize monthly fees and subscription costs by allowing users to have better local storage.<\/p>\n<p>You&#8217;ll notice that a lot of the devices mentioned today have their own integrated local storage, whether it be built-in or from an additional <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3LWJD52\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">$10-$30 microSD card<\/a>. However, these devices local storage and overall functionality can be further enhanced by pairing them with the new eufy HomeBase 3.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"benefits-eufy-homebase-3\"><strong>Benefits of eufy HomeBase 3<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>The main benefit of the eufy HomeBase 3 is that the local storage can be expanded up to 16 TB.<\/p>\n<p>Alright, I get it. A lot of you are tool people. Are you familiar with gigabytes? Well 16 TB is equivalent to 16,000 GB. Still don&#8217;t get it? Well, that comes out to about 1,600 hours (more than 66 days) of continuous footage.<\/p>\n<p>The eufy HomeBase 3 also has BionicMind\u2122 AI which gives eufy cameras the ability to differentiate between family and strangers, recognize cars, and prevent annoying false alarms, such as tree branches blowing in the breeze.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to these enhanced features, the eufy HomeBase 3 also provides basic but essential functions, like a soundbox for your eufy Doorbell to ring through. eufy does have cheaper alternatives for this function, but none offer the same upgrades to your home security products.<\/p>\n<p>Also, I want to mention that the HomeBase 3 is not required with the other newly released eufy products. Again, each device has its own form of local storage, and users just need their smartphone to use the video and audio features.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\"><a href=\"#list\">Back to list<\/a><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"eufy-door-lock\"><strong>eufy Video Door Lock<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-80604 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/toolsinaction.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/eufy-homebase-3_eufy-door-lock-s330_1024px.webp\" alt=\"eufy Door Lock\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" srcset=\"https:\/\/toolsinaction.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/eufy-homebase-3_eufy-door-lock-s330_1024px.webp 1024w, https:\/\/toolsinaction.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/eufy-homebase-3_eufy-door-lock-s330_1024px-300x200.webp 300w, https:\/\/toolsinaction.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/eufy-homebase-3_eufy-door-lock-s330_1024px-250x167.webp 250w, https:\/\/toolsinaction.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/eufy-homebase-3_eufy-door-lock-s330_1024px-696x464.webp 696w, https:\/\/toolsinaction.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/eufy-homebase-3_eufy-door-lock-s330_1024px-631x420.webp 631w, https:\/\/toolsinaction.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/eufy-homebase-3_eufy-door-lock-s330_1024px-627x418.webp 627w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Product Name: <\/strong>eufy Video Smart Lock S330<\/li>\n<li><strong>Highlights &amp; Features:\u00a0<\/strong>A 3-in-1 doorbell, camera, and lock.
