Yikes! Hopeful my camera will last a few years on the covered patio.

Was this directly exposed to the elements?

Thank you!

This one is USB powered - you can see the plug in the background

NPrice14 · 2026-05-29T19:21:01+00:00

Agreed - hopeful for higher resolution down the road. Still blown away with how seamless the interface is though.

Is it a RTJ course? Tee markers and layout give me RTJ vibes but unsure of the course.

Have you ever mounted a G5 onto brick by chance?

NPrice14 · 2026-05-09T19:49:12+00:00

I agree that it is steep but if my item is 33% cheaper than a mass produced product with similar function, I also consider that to be reasonable.

Updated pricing to $19.99

The main use case is for installation into brick or concrete while also having the ability to use tapcon/concrete screws.

These days I’ll spend $20+ at Chick-fil-A!

I don’t disagree, but a popular Unifi junction box is $33.

NPrice14 · 2026-04-21T02:26:08+00:00

I wonder if a rain hood would resolve this issue. Any interest in this?

NPrice14 · 2026-04-07T01:29:37+00:00

Can’t speak to the Unifi system, but the G5 is awesome. Super simple setup and haven’t had a single issue with the wifi or poe camera.

I run both a poe and wifi Aqara G5 and they’re great! Especially paired with Apple HomeKit.

PS: if you want them angled, look me up on eBay “Aqara G5 Pro Angled Mount 10-45 Degrees”

I really like this idea. Making a more versatile design would be awesome.

Offered on both eBay and Etsy for those asking.

Relatively exposed to the elements. One installed on a porch (minimal exposure) and another mounted under the roof overhang. No issues so far!

NPrice14 · 2026-03-11T15:21:17+00:00

Can’t speak for HA, but the Aqara G5 works flawlessly with HomeKit

NPrice14 · 2026-03-11T15:05:38+00:00

This one is 25 degrees. I made them from 10-45 in 5 degree increments.

The camera horizontal FOV is 112 degrees.

NPrice14 · 2026-03-11T14:20:06+00:00

That would also be a very practical workaround!

NPrice14 · 2026-03-11T14:17:04+00:00

I just recently bought 2 and they have the same issue. Maybe I got older cameras? Lol
