Whether you’re a parent who wants to keep an eye on your kids even after leaving the room or you’re just worried about your pets chewing on your slippers when left alone, a tiny home security camera will give you peace of mind and help you feel a lot better.

The Tapo C200 wireless security camera is small and, despite its price, comes packed with a range of nifty features. First, by hooking it up to the Tapo app, you can remotely control where the camera is pointed. This pan-and-tilt camera has 360 degrees of horizontal panning and 114 degrees of vertical tilting, so you can pretty much point it wherever you want. The camera can track and follow activity within its field of view, too, which is amazing for a device that’s only $16. Other awesome features include a 24/7 live feed, plus motion sensors that can send notifications when triggered. The videos are all in 1080p, including at night, and you can also use the Tapo app to communicate through the camera via two-way audio. As with any Tapo cam, you can store recorded footage on the cloud (requires a subscription) or on a microSD card up to 128GB in capacity (sold separately). If you don’t have a home security camera, there’s never been a better time or price to get one. The TP-Link Tapo C200 is a steal for just $16, so snag it while this limited-time deal is still hot!
