The Eufy Security E340 floodlight is one of the market’s most effective outdoor security floodlights, with two LED light panels that emit 2000 lumens. The E340 is part of a lineup of Eufy devices with two motion-tracking cameras, a 2K telephoto to capture details up to 50 feet away, and a 3K wide-angle camera that captures all the action.
Having tested this and other competitor products for the past few months, I’ve determined this is the best option for a smart outdoor security floodlight. I keep mine on in the ambient setting each night on a schedule so we can have the outdoor illumination from dusk until we go to bed.
This floodlight camera stores footage locally in the Eufy Security Homebase S380 or on a 128-GB microSD card, eliminating the need to pay monthly fees. The dual-camera floodlight requires a hardwired installation and can be mounted on a wall or ceiling or installed in a junction box.
Opinions on performance are mixed among buyer reviews, but some mention that the camera can be prone to false alerts, which I have experienced below. This was initially helped by adjusting the sensitivity, but subsequent firmware updates to my device appear to have also solved most of this problem.
