Wireless security cameras that actually last more than a few days without sun exposure are hard to find, so I put Premium Invention's Wireless S4 Pro (4G Cellular edition) through its paces to see if it lives up to the brand's claims.
The S4 Pro is a redesign of Premium Invention's earlier V4 model, built around a CAT4 4G chip (or WiFi 6) and the brand's "top-rated" battery pack — four 21700 lithium cells totaling 20,000 mAh, charged by a 6W solar panel or a USB-C cable.
It records dual 4K video from two lenses — one holding a fixed wide view while the other auto-tracks motion — with a 120-degree field of view and 355-degree horizontal pan and tilt. Zoom tops out at 20x hybrid (10x optical + 10x digital), rated to resolve details like faces or license plates at up to 650 feet. Night vision is full-color "Starlight" mode with IR backup, and motion detection uses PIR plus an AI algorithm that Premium Invention says distinguishes people, pets, and vehicles from background movement.
Premium Invention rates the S4 Pro for up to 100 days per full charge with just one sunny day of exposure, and the company says install takes 2-3 minutes without a technician — the camera can be ceiling- or wall-mounted, or run as an all-in-one unit with a detachable solar panel. It's rated IP66 for dust and weather resistance, with an operating range of -25°C to 60°C.
The 4G Starter Bundle (one camera) lists for $599.97 and is currently discounted to $499.97, which includes a free SIM card and 7 days of free data (data plans afterward run $15/month or $140/year). On Premium Invention's site the 4G edition holds a 4.9-star rating across 271 reviews. For anyone who needs surveillance in a spot without WiFi — a detached garage, a farm gate, a remote cabin — the cellular option justifies its price against 2K single-lens competitors that lose picture quality on digital zoom.
