Get to Know the ONE Nova Floodlight Security Camera

One of the best ways to protect a home is a motion-triggered floodlight. These types of security devices provide lighting for friends and family to comfortably approach your home. Conversely, these are perfect for warding off intruders as they provide a bright flash and warning. The ideal, as well as logical, next step in improving this security staple was equipping it with an HD Camera component. The result: The ONE Nova Floodlight Security Camera.

We’ve found that the ONE Nova perfectly blends the classic function of a security floodlight with the HD precision of an IP camera. As a result, our users have found countless outdoor applications for this unit. It is the essential upgrade for anyone that is looking to improve their outdoor security standards.

If you are looking for a motion-triggered floodlight to begin with, you’ll notice that the higher end models can cost upwards of $100. True, there are some models that can be as low as $50, but with those, you are sacrificing quality and durability. If you consider that the ONE Nova matches the lighting standards of high-end models, while adding an HD camera to the mix, you’ll find the price difference to be in our favor.

In fact, pricing is key in general with the ONE Nova. Compared to direct competitors on the market, the ONE Nova retails $40-$50 without sacrificing any quality. More than that, it saves you money while adding features compared to our competitors. Sound too good to be true? Read on to get a full rundown of the top-tier features as well as best use cases for the ONE Link Floodlight Security Camera.

A Closer Look at Floodlight Security Camera Features

So there’s plenty of talk about floodlight cameras on the market. Even when you stack the ONE Nova up against our largest competitors, we offer more top-tier specs!

Here is a quick breakdown of some of the most important specs:

Now let’s take a closer look at some of these floodlight security camera features as well as how they will benefit your home security.

Full HD 1080P Floodlight Security Camera

We’ll start at the basics. The first thing you should think about with any security camera is the viewing quality. Resolution on the ONE Nova is full HD 1080P. That means there are over 2 million individual pixels per image captured in your field of view.

Having a high level of resolution is particularly important for outdoor cameras. With indoor cameras, you have more control over the lighting conditions. Conversely, with outdoor cameras, you have no control of the lighting. Day, night, sunshine, cloud layers, other ambient light sources from surrounding homes… All of these factors have an effect on the way security cameras capture their image. With the ONE Nova camera unit, you have enough pixels to guarantee detail.

Along with that, the camera is equipped with True Wide Dynamic Range that makes the camera self adjust to overexposure to light as well as lack of light. This ensures clarity regardless of the conditions.

Long-Range IR Night Vision

Another factor that is made more crucial by outdoor use is night vision. IR night vision is absolutely key for any security camera. This gives the user the ability to keep an eye on their property at even in extremely dark conditions. For that purpose, we included IR night vision that reaches up to 60ft. This allows you to see the far reaches of your property, depending on where you install the ONE Nova.

Another element to consider is that with the ultra-bright floodlights, you will basically have color night vision in the immediate area surrounding the camera. If someone come withing the vicinity of the ONE Nova, they will be illuminated and caught in full color. This can make a huge difference in capturing more important detail like clothing color.

PIR Thermal Detection + Floodlights

This is a higher level feature that you won’t find on the average floodlight security camera. Most floodlights or floodlight cameras operate with simple motion detection. This can lead to false alarms if the detection zone is a high traffic area. To reduce false alarms as well as increase accuracy, we have included a PIR thermal detection sensor on the camera for human and animal detection only. The ONE Nova scans for thermal signals in a 270° capture zone for wide-ranging coverage.

This brings us to the 2500LM lamps. They flash on with the detection of thermal movement. This either lights the way for guests or wards off unwanted trespassers.

Floodlight Security Camera Audio Standards

The ONE Nova features a built-in microphone and speaker for two-way audio. You can simply speak into the app via your mobile device and communicate with whoever is near the camera.

Along with that, this floodlight security camera elevates your security standards with a 100db alarm. If you want to scare off intruders and draw attention to the area, this is yet another means of doing just that!

Installation Tips for Your Floodlight Security Camera

Providing a feature guide is just part of the job. We’ve also come up with some references for installation areas that could benefit from all of the ONE Nova’s many features!

Check out our recommended points of installation below!

Floodlight Security Camera for Car Security

One of the first areas you may think of for installation of this camera is above the garage. We highly recommend this, assuming it works with the layout of your home. Keep in mind, the ONE Nova connects to your network wirelessly, via WiFi. It does, however, require you to run a cable to a power outlet. Generally, garages are equipped with outlets, so this positioning will be no problem.

Generally speaking, the garage is fairly front-and-center for most homes. This means not only are you overlooking your driveway, but you will likely be able to see the sidewalk and front access points.

Beyond that, if you park your cars in the driveway, you will want to keep that area secure. A car left on your driveway overnight can be a prime target for petty theft or even car theft. See how crucial outdoor security cameras can be for driveway car theft in the video below!

Plus, the floodlight security camera overlooking the garage protects cars on the interior. Potential thieves will be scared off by the floodlights and alarm long before they have an opportunity to break into your garage.

Backyard Protection with Floodlight Security Camera

Another key area for installation is your backyard. If you want to be mindful of power outlet requirements, it is likely the easiest to mount the camera above your back door or on a large awning if you have one.

Many times, intruders will find a way to sneak into backyards as well as go undetected from eyes on the street. If you have your backyard equipped with the ONE Nova, your back entrance won’t be left vulnerable to break ins.

Exterior Storage/Shed Protection

One of the biggest advantages of this being a WiFi security camera is that you don’t have to run data cables to an NVR. With the camera’s long-distance data transmission, you can place it just about anywhere on your property and feel secure that it will achieve a stable connection to your WiFi router.

If you have storage sheds on the far reaches of your property, you may want to install your floodlight security camera there. Often times, intruders will think they are in the clear to break into storage units such as these. The ONE Nova will provide all the protection you need in these situations. Plus, it will provide you lighting if you need to access that storage at night!
