Physically small IP camera

[BigFoot]

Hello All

Can anyone point me in the right directions .....

I'm looking for a physically small IP camera to use externally on my touring caravan ( for the Yanks in here, it's kinda like what you lot call a toy hauler with accommodation)

Aside from being physically small, I'm looking for decent 2MP resolution or higher & ideally with its own internal IR illuminators. And VERY weather resistant

Here in the UK may large goods vehicles use small wedge-shaped camera's as an alternative to external mirrors, but sadly these are all analogue cams

Any help would, as always, be greatly appreciated

What is your exact use? Note that an IP cam will have a delay of 1-3 seconds from real time.
Analog cams are realtime.

Yep you want analog if it is being used as a safety enhancement. IP will lag.

Hi Loony2ns

Primary use is as security for my caravan

Secondary use is to see what the weather is doing without getting out of a nice warm bed or opening the thermal blinds which cover the windows

But primarily security

You need one of those cameras they pop on top of NASCAR vehicles lol.

Doh! I have this very camera for the use of monitoring my front door (from the inside). I like it because I can also hear what is being said when the house sitter/cleaners come over. It has been working well for me for the last 6 months

Here is what the camera sees

I have additional cameras covering other angles of that same room. But they could not see the actual door, so I installed this camera

@DanDenver - Is that a "chalk" line on the camera to see if it has been tampered with LOL, or just perfect alignment of a mark on the camera and the countertop LOL.

Nice panty cam!

 

[DanDenver]

It is a line I drew to help me get the exact angle on the view I wanted. I used silicone caulking to ‘glue’ it to the bottom of the granite, so I knew that once installed I could not move it again.

‘handinpalm’ - interesting direction to take that in, and an equally interesting idea. Sadly, it is just a tad to high to successfully accomplish said mission : (

As a nanny cam, my custom ip cam is installed inside a wall power outlet. This allow you to plug on any 120v outlet around the house, where wifi is available.
