Unlike Reolink's Duo 2/Elite dual-lens cameras, the S340's second lens is a genuine motorised PTZ, not a fixed wide-angle pairing - it can slew toward a specific gate or gap instead of just widening the frame. That flexibility comes with integration risk: HA support is the community eufy_security HACS project, which breaks whenever Anker changes its cloud API, versus the Reolinks' officially-supported native integration. Power differs too - battery plus a 2.2W solar panel skips the mains run, but polling is duty-cycled so sensors lag more than the Reolinks' always-on wired feed. Best where mains isn't an option and real PTZ reach matters; otherwise buy the Elite WiFi.
What can Home Assistant control on the eufy SoloCam S340 (Dual Camera, Solar)?
| Control | Type | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| PTZ direction | Service | Slews the angled second lens independently of the fixed wide-overview lens; the wide lens has no PTZ service since it's static. |
| Charging status | Sensor | Reports charging/not-charging/solar-charging/battery, distinguishing panel output from ordinary trickle charging. |
| Battery | Sensor (%) | Standard battery percentage; the primary power signal since there's no wired-power indicator on this solar/battery-only model. |
| Vehicle detected | Binary sensor | Model-specific detection class, tracked separately from generic motion/person events. |
| Motion | Binary sensor | Fires from either lens's motion zone; automations that need to know which lens triggered should pair this with the camera's current PTZ position. |
Because the second lens is a genuine motorised pan/tilt unit, not a fixed dual-lens composite, the S340 exposes real PTZ camera services in HA, so automations can slew the downward lens toward a specific zone rather than just switching a view mode. The underlying client library carries a distinct solar-charging state separate from plugged-in or battery-only, giving a real signal for panel output rather than inferring it from battery-level trend. Being battery/solar-only with no wired fallback, its connection and property polling are more duty-cycled than eufy's wired cameras, so battery, signal, and charging-status sensors can sit stale for longer stretches between motion-triggered wake events and shouldn't be treated as live telemetry for time-critical automations.

Frequently asked questions
- Does the eufy SoloCam S340 (Dual Camera, Solar) work with Home Assistant locally?
- Yes. The eufy SoloCam S340 (Dual Camera, Solar) is controlled locally in Home Assistant through a community integration installed through HACS (eufy_security), so it keeps working if your internet connection or the eufy (Anker) cloud goes down. Control and state updates stay on your own network.
- Which protocol does the eufy SoloCam S340 (Dual Camera, Solar) use, and do I need a hub?
- The eufy SoloCam S340 (Dual Camera, Solar) uses Wi-Fi. To pair it with Home Assistant you need no hub — it joins your Wi-Fi network directly. eufy (Anker)'s own hub is not required when you integrate through a community integration installed through HACS (eufy_security).
- How much does the eufy SoloCam S340 (Dual Camera, Solar) cost in the UK?
- The lowest price we have listed for the eufy SoloCam S340 (Dual Camera, Solar) is £129 at Amazon UK. Prices were last checked in September 2026 and change often, so confirm on the retailer's page before buying.
