Maximus Camera Floodlight review: Brand X is trying harder

Ring is the brand most people think of when it comes to floodlight cams, but Maximus (and its corporate ally Kuna, which provides the underlying technology) is trying harder to get noticed. The Maximus Camera Floodlight, first announced way back at last year's CES is finally available--and it's a compelling value. The Maximus doesn't have an answer for every feature that you'll find in the Ring Floodlight Cam, but it offers some features Ring doesn't (I'm in the process of reviewing Ring's product). The biggest difference is in the floodlight itself. Both companies build their floodlights with LEDs, but where the Ring's are inside somewhat conventional cans, the Maximus' lights are flat rectangular panels.
