Not a bad idea at all and would have some pretty great angles lol. I only have the stick up mail box.. but I have been wanting to change that..
Just really don't feel like running a cable that far right now. I'm definitely gonna explore the option though because I guess I could get a cheaper camera too. Been looking at the IPC-HFW5241E-Z12E
The box had a 6mm bullet facing the house with a 6mm looking South and a 2.8 looking North. I decided I wanted to change the cam facing West (to the house) for two reasons: I want a wider FoV to monitor the full width of the lot and ALSO I want to have an audio source (mic) at the mailbox. I...
A few months ago I was taking out the trash and while walking down the driveway I noticed a car stopping at our mailbox, opening it and driving away. It was dark so I know it was not the rural mail carrier. We live in a rural area and have had occasions of missing mail in the past. We don't have...

This one is my favorite. I think I need to at least run a cable from my switch on the left side, grab a camera from Andy, and start testing angles. Then plan out a enclosure or it might even work out mounted to my house. I really wish that tree was a normal tree and not a weeping willow
Here's the angle from one of my cameras, that I just realized wouldn't be a bad spot for a zoomed in LPR.. the cable is already run and I could move this cam close to eye level at my door area.
