Power outage in Berlin: Why your Weber Protect appliances continue to work reliably

A widespread power outage is currently causing chaos in Berlin's southeastern part of the city. Following a suspected arson attack on high-voltage power lines, around 25,000 households remain without power. Schools remain closed, emergency call systems are limited, public transport is operating at a limited level, and many households are without hot water. Experts expect repairs to last until Thursday.

For many Berliners, this means no light, no heating, no internet – and thus limited security. Especially in times when digital infrastructure fails, it is crucial that security solutions function independently of the power or internet network.

Our solution: Offline-capable surveillance cameras and video doorbells

The Weber Protect devices, such as the The Apollo 2 security camera and the ProV1 video doorbell are specifically designed for such scenarios. Even if the power goes out or there's no active Wi-Fi connection, our devices remain fully operational:

• Motion detection: The cameras reliably detect movements, even without internet access.

• Offline recording: All video recordings are saved locally on the device so no important event is missed.

• Battery operation: Our Apollo 2 camera and ProV1 doorbell operate completely independently of the power grid.

This means that while many households in Berlin and the surrounding area are currently completely offline, our devices continue to record movements and ensure that you don't miss a thing.
