Installing a refurbished Wyze Cam Floodlight with a wall mounting kit is a straightforward process that enhances your home security with bright, smart lighting and reliable camera surveillance. Whether you are replacing an existing floodlight or installing a new one, Wyze offers flexible installation options to fit your needs, including traditional junction box wiring or the innovative plug-in mount for locations without a junction box.

Understanding Your Wyze Cam Floodlight Installation Options

Wyze Cam Floodlight models, including the standard Wyze Cam Floodlight, Wyze Cam Floodlight v2, and Wyze Cam Floodlight Pro, can be installed using a wall mounting kit that secures the device firmly to your home’s exterior wall.

Important: Always check local laws and building codes before installation. If you are unsure about electrical work, consult a licensed electrician.
