Wyze Cam Outdoor Case

thingiverse

Update 5-11-19 I added three versions of the case that fit the 34mm lens. With this smaller lens, only the black of the Wyze cam shows and not the white case. I will put a link to the 34mm lens below in the Parts Needed. Also, I found inexpensive wall mounts - four for $12. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0776RVX64/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Description Outdoor camera case for Wyze cam V2 (not the Pan one) that works with most camera mounts. I also included a Wyze cam wrap template which can be used no matter if you use this case or not. Use this case at your own risk. If something happens to your camera, that is on you. There is a seal/gasket .stl if you want to print in a flexible material to provide a watertight seal for the back cover. You don't need the seal as I made the back cover a tight fit and I put a ridge on the inside to help with more plastic on plastic so it is harder for water to get in. There are three versions of the case and two versions of the back cap. The file names are self explanatory. You only need to print one with a nut hole. The flat piece on the bottom of the back cap is so when you put the cap on, it will push the cam forward to the front. V2 - this is my second revision. I never uploaded V1. V3 - future. I would like to make a sun shade that would snap on super simple. Future. Model the case to use the smaller lens. Parts Needed: 52mm Lens Cap - $6.37 Used for the front glass. I took the glass out of the ring which just screws together. https://www.amazon.com/Tiffen-49mm-UV-Protection-Filter/dp/B00004ZCJG?th=1 34mm Lens Cap - $7.99 Used for the front glass. You will take the glass out of the ring by unscrewing the center ring. Use only the 34mm cases if you use this lens. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000F4OIKY/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o07_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Mount - $7.99 Any mount will do, but I would get one with a rubber washer on the screw to reduce the possibility of water getting in. https://www.amazon.com/Security-Mount-Adjustable-Outdoor-Compatible/dp/B01I985WRK/ref=sr_1_2_sspa?keywords=outdoor+camera+mount&qid=1553564220&s=electronics&sr=1-2-spons&psc=1 Two M3 x 10mm bolts These will hold the back cap in place. https://www.amazon.com/2-Piece-M3-10mm-Bolts/dp/B01N5KQ7P9 Wyze cam black vinyl wrap I have a vinyl cutter so I made a template for a top piece and a full wrap around the sides. You won't need this if you use the 34mm glass. This case only shows the black around the lens so you don't need to wrap the camera. IR LED vinyl ring This greatly reduces the IR LED reflection you get on the glass at night. This would stick to the inside of the glass and be dead center around the lens. I placed this one correctly by putting the glass in the case (before silicone) and the camera. I then placed the vinyl ring on the outside of the glass but in the correct position. The just take the cam out and flip the glass around so that the vinyl is on the inside. ----- Credits Finally, I have to give credit to Devin Montes from the Make Anything Youtube channel. He made a kick-ass outdoor Wyzecam mount and I highly recommend you check out his at https://www.myminifactory.com/object/3d-print-83854 . It is well-engineered and looks the part of what an outdoor camera should look like. I took the idea from him and made my own (even though there are many outdoor models for Wyze cams). Mostly, I used his idea for the cable plug, mine is for a round cable and his is for the flat one that comes with the Wyze camera. I am not going to put any of his parts up, because that would not be right. But honestly, just buy his for $1.99... it is nice.
