It’s the final hours of EOFY sales, and if you’ve been considering making a purchase, the time to act is now. There are discounts on almost every category — such as tech, activewear, beauty bits, NBN and mobile plans, just to name a few — including some of the best home security cameras.
One of our top-rated brands, TP-Link Tapo, has slashed prices across its inventory on its website and at retailers like JB Hi-Fi. However, there’s only one home security kit that caught my eye, thanks to its hassle-free solar-powered set.
The TP-Link Tapo C460 kit is now discounted to just AU$189, from AU$279 at JB Hi-Fi. What makes this kit stand out above the rest is its solar panel, which eliminates the need to plug in the device or worry about recharging the 10,000mAh battery. Within just 45 minutes of direct sunlight, the panel can fully charge the battery to last one day, and if it’s constantly connected to the panel, there’s potentially very little to no maintenance required.
Better yet, the camera can record in 4K resolution, has subscription-free AI detection for people, packages and vehicles, and can save up to 512GB of footage locally with a microSD. You’ll need to act fast to nab this home security deal, though, as it will expire in the wee hours of tomorrow, June 30, 2026.
We haven’t reviewed this particular set just yet; however, I have spent some hands-on time with it in the past few weeks — and you can consider me impressed. Gone are the days of needing a subscription to maintain or operate your smart home products to their fullest potential, as TP-Link’s kit doesn’t need one to complete all of its included features.
This was one of my biggest gripes as a Ring camera user, as I needed a subscription to use package and person alerts, whereas with the TP-Link, I don’t need to pay an additional fee to see if my package was delivered or my dog somehow made it out the front door. Now, I can simply rewind the footage on the app (or via my laptop with the microSD card), and hey, presto, I can locate the accurate time of my postie’s delivery.
What’s even more impressive is that this extends to most of TP-Link Tapo’s camera lineup, so if the C460 kit doesn’t quite tickle your fancy, there are plenty of other options to choose from. With multi-cam kits, indoor and pan-tilt devices, and outdoor floodlights, I’ve selected six of the best TP-Link Tapo camera deals for your perusal below.
