Camera Data Usage
Your package includes a data bundle, making the camera ready for immediate use. How long a data bundle lasts depends on the camera's usage and settings. Factors such as image quality (HD/2K/4K), live viewing, motion recordings, night vision, and mobile network strength all influence data consumption.
Average consumption
Under normal circumstances, live viewing consumes an average of 1MB to 5MB per minute. Cameras with higher image quality may consume more data than older models.
Practical examples
- 10x per day, 1 minute live viewing = approximately 300MB to 1.5GB per month on average
- Occasional short viewing during competitions = data bundle often lasts several months
- Intensive use or birth monitoring = significantly higher consumption
- 24/7 live viewing can amount to several GBs per month
The examples provided are indications based on average usage. Actual consumption may vary per situation, camera, and settings.
