Arlo is stepping up its smart home security game with the launch of its first wired floodlight camera. Unlike its wireless counterparts, this new model connects directly to your home’s Wi-Fi and power, ensuring 24/7 operation without the need for battery replacements. Priced at $149.99, it offers a more budget-friendly alternative to Arlo’s pricier wireless Pro 3 Floodlight Camera.

The Wired Floodlight Camera delivers 2K HDR video, a wide 160-degree field of view, and 2000 lumens of adjustable light. It also features articulating lights that can be directed where needed, providing comprehensive outdoor coverage. With color night vision, two-way audio, and an integrated siren, it’s built to deter intruders and enhance home security.

This camera can be controlled via the Arlo Secure app, allowing users to watch live video, communicate through two-way audio, and receive real-time motion alerts. However, cloud storage for video recordings and advanced object detection features are only available with a subscription starting at $7.99 per month for the first 12 months (then $9.99/month). Integration with Alexa, Google Home, and IFTTT makes it easy to integrate into existing smart home setups, and the weatherproof design ensures it can handle any outdoor conditions.

Arlo’s Wired Floodlight Camera is a solid option for homeowners looking for continuous, powerful protection.
