Premium Brand Distributors (PBD), a leading South African technology distributor, will participate for the first time at SecurEX South Africa, showcasing the latest from eufy Security and Anker PowerHouse, the global leader in smart home security solutions and power stations. A prime focus of PBD at Africa’s leading security and fire trade exhibition will be the launch of eufyCam 3 and the Anker 535 and 521 PowerHouse power stations to the South African market. These state-of-the-art technologies are set to redefine the portable power and security sectors, respectively.
“Participating in SecurEX marks a significant milestone for PBD,” said Grant Norton, CEO of Premium Brand Distributors. “We’re excited about the tremendous opportunity to bring Anker Innovations’ eufy Security and Anker PowerHouse products to the vibrant South African market. The cutting-edge eufyCam 3 security system and versatile PowerHouse chargers meet the growing needs for enhanced security and portable power solutions.”
Faraz Mehdi, General Manager of Anker Innovations, Middle East, Africa and South Asia, added, “The South African market holds a significant value and potential for us. We’re thrilled to provide our state-of-the-art eufy Security and Anker PowerHouse solutions to consumers in the region. We believe that these products will greatly benefit users, enhancing their safety and offering reliable, portable power solutions. This is an exciting opportunity for us to make a lasting impact and empower users with the very best technology available.”
The eufyCam 3, part of eufy Security’s new Edge Security System, features solar-powered cameras with 4K resolution, machine-learning AI with 99% accurate recognition and a HomeBase 3 data hub. This innovative product is designed to enhance user privacy and improve data control, making it ideal for the increasingly security-conscious South African consumer.
Managed by the new HomeBase 3, the eufyCam 3 will leverage eufy Security’s proprietary BionicMind™, a self-learning A.I. that will over time deliver 99% accuracy in recognizing different people, as well as detecting pets and objects. With BionicMind, every time someone passes through the camera’s field-of-view, their face, body and movements are sent to HomeBase 3. The more information the new data hub receives, the more precise its analysis will become — up to 99% accuracy. The HomeBase 3 uses edge computing technology which analyzes user data and automatically curates and catalogues it utilizing HomeBase 3’s free local storage. This creates a more efficient user experience where the homeowner has complete control over who can access their video footage.
BionicMind’s facial recognition capabilities help users automatically capture and classify past video footage by family members, friends or other frequent visitors. HomeBase 3, BionicMind and the mobile app also work together to identify and instantly notify users of strangers or intruders who’ve been spotted near their home/property.
HomeBase 3 also comes with 16GB of free, 256-bit encrypted local storage. The data hub can support up to 16 TB of additional memory using an external hard drive (not included in the Edge Security System) for up to 60 years of local video storage without the need to clear space.
In addition to the security system, PBD will also showcase the Anker 535 and 521 PowerHouse chargers. The high-capacity PowerHouse stations is powered by a Lithium Iron Phosphate (LiFePO4) battery like those used in modern electric vehicles and offer 6 times more usage than conventional batteries. LiFePO4 batteries also offer improved discharge and charge efficiency compared to Lithium-Ion. The stations have been designed using an automotive-grade aluminum alloy that is corrosion and temperature resistant, providing unmatched durability to withstand the harshest of climates.
Anker 535 Portable Power Station
The Anker 535 Portable Power Station is a power storage solution that features a rugged design, multiple charging ports, and a built-in lighting bar. With 512Wh (138k mAh) of power capacity and 500W total output power, the 535 station is able to charge any mobile device including smartphones, tablets, and laptops as well as small appliances and medical equipment such as CPAP machines. This makes it an ideal tool for situations when there is no access to electricity during outdoor activities such as hiking or camping and can also be useful in times of blackouts, or natural disasters.
Anker 521 Portable Power Station
With 256Wh (698k mAh) of power capacity and 200W total output power, the 521 Portable Power Station is an entry-level portable station by Anker. The station is quite durable and convenient featuring a drop-proof design and industry standard components with a 50,000-hour life expectancy, five times more than the market average. The PowerHouse 521 is the perfect portable companion for any outdoor enthusiast.
“PBD’s participation at SecurEX this year is about more than just bringing the best of technology to South Africa. It’s about fostering a tech-savvy, future-forward environment in the country,” Norton added. “We believe partnership with eufy security and Anker PowerHouse’s cutting-edge solutions will revolutionize how consumers approach security and portable power.”
