I have the V2’s. I was hoping the v3 looked better. It’s all washed out and not clear at all. The colors don’t look anything like they do in person.
It is sad, I am still thinking about resolutions, but not finding much. I think their new sensor is getting a light overload.

Do you make it for the v3 cam? I don’t know if the body has changed.

V3 Wyze camera mounts are available for both Magnetic and suction cup! With the V2 Polyp labs filter it looks pretty good!

Can I order one of the V2 mounts, want to make sure it will work on this one

I designed a Wyze V2 and Blink mini camera mount that can go on the outside of the tank. The mounts are 3D printed with PLA and have stainless steel hardware.

The magnets used are capable of holding the camera on a tank with 5/8in thickness or less. The magnets are coated in plastic for the interior magnets making them reef safe.
I can sell them with and without magnets. $30 shipped without magnets and $50 shipped with magnets.

Now available is suction cup mounts for tanks of any size. $40 shipped

Each of the mounts are now made to fit a 37mm coral viewer lens like polyp labs or most other brands.
They come standard in black, but can be other colors on special request.

Yes I do! The V3 is not as great picture quality however. The new sensor gets overwhelmed with light.
I just tried my Wyze V3 and the image quality was terrible. Everything was blurry instead of sharp in the V2 version.

Do you know what’s the difference in these models that contribute to the problem? Is there like a setting tweak I missed?

The V3 is tricky because of the starlight sensor. Reef lights overburden the sensor. So I us the v2 lens from polyp labs. It has a polarizer in it. So you need to spin the lens until the slats of the polarization in the lens is horizontal and the image is viewable. The V2 still trumps the v3, but it made me happy enough to be able to use a v3 on my tank.

what magnets are you using, do they rust over time? Id also be interested in one.
