    Wyze Cam v3

    Throwing my name in the hat as well. I'm currently testing the wyze v3 cameras flashed with RTSP firmware in a remote location. Setting it up was a little more tricky having to create a hotspot from my phone for internet access as it's required to "register" each camera and do the setup in the...

    Basic Indoor camera

    That camera has a lot of bang for the money. Mine are still holding up strong after a few years now.

    Front Door Camera Location

    It may help to show us a overall picture of the view from the doorway and how people walk up to the door. Straight path? is there coverage? streetview, sunrise/sunset location.

    Front Door Camera Location

    Wedge should be fine. Might be able to mount it on the side wall instead of the door frame for a cleaner install.

    Recording 24/7 and saving clips

    Looks like hp z-240’s are coming off lease (i7-6700).. are they good?
