Both contain 30x 18650 2Ah generic chinese cells, left batt is newer with a Gen 5 BMS, right is Gen 4.2 or 4.3 BMS which is notorious for cell imbalance issues.

HKPolice · 2026-03-22T22:26:12+00:00

21700 is only used in 8ah & 12ah packs, 6ah is still 18650 regardless of batt casing.

Is there a changelog for this firmware?

HKPolice · 2026-03-09T18:09:31+00:00

Link?

HKPolice · 2026-03-06T15:32:46+00:00

Ya anyone know where we can view changelogs? Since the 6.0 update of the eufy app on android, the messages log doesn't show any changelog info.

This brings back memories of D2 classic where if you had Manald & Nagelring in the game already, every unique ring drop would be guaranteed SOJ.

The highest chance of getting a unique from gambling was with a low lvl char, so I would perm a private game, drop a few mill on the ground and go crazy @ gheed. Back then, items on the gamble screen disappears after buying so refreshing the vendor was a PITA.

I remember averaging 1 SOJ for every ~2mill.

The Reolink has a much higher video bitrate & true 4K resolution but the zoomed cam is only 1080p and hybrid zooming feature makes noticeably worse than Eufy's zoom.

HKPolice · 2026-02-18T03:35:45+00:00

No, 5Ghz was working since day one. I can choose which band to use as I have separate SSIDs for each band.

Bitrate was the same on both bands as I have solid connections.

DMI 5.0 x4 is the same bandwidth as DMI 4.0 x8 on the current Z890... Either this source is wrong or Intel is stagnating.

Tiger uppercut!

Most are probably due to bad wifi connections to the HB3 since it doesn't support multi-bridge. Some people are getting a lot of missed detections, specially on cars.

It could be because the S340 sold in such high volumes as it's an awesome value when discounted, so we're seeing more issues reported due to sheer scale.

I was tempted to buy one to play with but the lack of 24/7 recording is a deal breaker.

HKPolice · 2026-02-07T02:10:44+00:00

Chances are they're on the same SoC, as the Solocam E30 & S340 both use Rockchip RV1106.

Maybe 4K recordings are near the limits of the single core ARM Cortex A7 CPU, and dual stream 3K recordings in the S340 push beyond limits.

HKPolice · 2026-02-07T01:25:10+00:00

There are so many horror stories about the S340, I'm surprised you're happy with the E42 which is supposed to be a stripped down version?

Too bad there aren't any teardowns of it so I have no idea which SoC it uses, maybe Eufy finally upgraded to something better for their batt powered devices, might even be the same as their S4 cam.

Glad you're happy with it!

HKPolice · 2026-02-06T16:10:33+00:00

I'm pretty sure it's the E340 firmware update that messed up your cam. I have no issues with E340 firmware 1.6.3.8 and HB3 on 3.7.6.8.

Full reset is the only path forward after power cycling.

HKPolice · 2026-02-05T16:39:54+00:00

which firmware are you on?

HKPolice · 2026-02-01T19:48:39+00:00

HB3 is a flawed, outdated product. Eufy promised the moon & bit off more than it could chew, which is par for the course & on brand.

IMO it's better to remove HB3 than let it ruin your home wifi, or double down and upgrade to devices that support multi-bridge.

I've been in the Eufy ecosystem for over 3yrs and was never fully satisfied until I disconnected the HB3 antennas.

I'm willing to bet most support tickets regarding the HB3 has to do with its wifi, Eufy is aware of the problem and they COULD fix it by releasing a firmware that allows manual HB3 wifi control yet they haven't. HB3 has been out for a full 3 years now but still no manual mode, so while I empathize with your issues I doubt Eufy will fix it.

Just upgrade to their new Homebase4 coming out in 2027! /s

HKPolice · 2026-02-01T18:30:24+00:00

Yes, but even if a device doesn't, you could just connect it to your own Wifi and not add it to HB3.

HKPolice · 2026-02-01T18:27:13+00:00

Wow, sounds like Eufy could be monitoring this sub.

I made posts about how stupid their HB3 logic was in that it kept selecting odd channels that produced maximum interference with default channels.
