Which of my 12 cameras are EOL. Paralyzing upgrade decision

I understand the EOL issue but as long time user, I have various models in my 12 cameras. Can’t find list of what is EOL so I know what to upgrade. Help?

You don't NEED to upgrade since even with the EOL they will continue to work for the foreseeable future.

You can always check the FAQs in the support section for tons of info:

How do you tell which model number the legacy cameras are? I see the H4, H5, H8 and etc, don’t tell you

Those are just hardware revisions. The original wireless cameras use 4 CR123 batteries, the Pro has a black bezel around the camera face and the Pro 2 has a white bezel. You may also be able to pop the Pro batteries out and check the label in the battery compartment for a VMCxxxx designation.
