Our HOA is not gated. We have 5 major points of entry. In the past the HOA board has considered installing security cameras, but the bids we got were well over $70k. The problem is power. There is no electricity at most of the entrances. I have explored using hunter's trail cameras with lithium batteries that can be recharged with a small solar panel. Would such a setup work with a security camera somehow?
Also networking the cameras is another issue. Is there any way to network the cameras without digging up the streets to install ethernet?
