WRV = Wyze Robot Vacuum (I’ve seen this a lot from a friend on here)
Keep in mind V1 and V2 differ based on Context. Sometimes they are talking about Cameras, sometimes they are talking contact or motion sensors, Sometimes they are talking about AI versions/testing. They could be talking about original vs new Rules Engine. They will almost certainly refer to other devices if Wyze ever creates a new version, such as anything that is made to be able to support the Matter Initiative with new hardware, etc. Basically anything that is upgraded. For example, in recent Reddit AMA’s Wyze mentioned a few things we can look forward to when the chip shortage mellows out such as Dave Crosby saying a WCO V2 and a Pan Cam V2:
So sometime in the future, V1 and V2 will also refer to those, and maybe eventually we’ll have V3 referring to other things too as the years go on. So again, keep in mind the context of the thread’s subject and what someone was recently talking about. V# just means hardware update version iteration number of the product that’s being talked about…but if it is said out of nowhere with no obvious context in the thread, then people are most likely talking about the cameras (not always though).
Typically used in context with SD cards such as HE-SD cards. I think we’ve run into this a few times but most of the times people will write high endurance out.
Off road you say…and here I thought it was just there for you to have your kids load it with a drink to bring to you while watching TV…though, I do have to admit that the jump ramp you made it clear was really impressive and definitely unexpected. Startled a lot of people.
WRV and WORV are so close together. They should just be merged into the same product IMO…for the sake of clarity and extra fun.
Another one:
AMA = Ask me Anything.
These are question and answer type of events that Wyze puts on regularly where Wyze employees will give us exciting news about things going on, coming up or clarifications we’ve all been wanting to know. I really look forward to these when they come up!
L-PD or LPD = Legacy Person Detection (alternatively could be used as Local Person Detection)
This usually means the subscription option of pay what you want to get the person Detection on Pan Cams and V2 Cams cloud events (limited to once every 5 minutes).
XNOR or XNOR.ai = looks like an acronym but it’s actually the name of the company who created Local person Detection for the V2 cams, but was bought out by Apple and Wyze was forced to remove that code from all their cams and switch to a cloud based AI detection instead
AI = Artificial Intelligence… Though usually it would more accurately be called Machine Learning.
Here’s a partial list of stuff that might be good to put in order: “Sequence of general steps to take when troubleshooting.”

I know @BigBurly13 's looking to demystify things by spelling out abbreviations and acronyms and defining jargon terms. Knowing the terms and using them consistently is a great help when speaking to people with advanced knowledge and deep experience.
But that’s just the beginning. It’s a tough slog to expertise, constantly changing and expanding.
Two years exposure with middling engagement and that’s my ‘advanced beginner’ list. It sort of coheres. It gets me by.
