For eufyCam 3C, it will take approximately 2.5 hours (9V/2A), 6 hours (5V/2A), or 9 hours (5V/1A) to fully charge the battery from 0% to 100%.

For eufyCam 3, it will take approximately 5 hours (9V/2A), 8 hours (5V/2A), or 18 hours (5V/1A) to fully charge the battery from 0% to 100%.

eufyCam 3 has a built-in solar panel that requires at least two hours of direct sunlight per day to keep the camera constantly charged, and you would never have to manually recharge the camera!

Note: The location of the camera will affect the efficiency of eufyCam 3 camera’s solar charging. It is highly recommended to refer to the installation guidelines in the eufy Security app.
