Altas PT Ultra

The reolink Altas Pt Ultra is the only camera in the market, that I'm aware of, that is battery powered and that can record 24/7 to some degree. Any other wireless camera can't record 24/7, they just record motion/detection events. IMO, for a battery powered camera there is no better solution than t

I strongly, strongly recommend against relying on solar/battery and WiFi for security cameras. Even most battery cameras are going to fall short of either security or "insurance" needs. Could you please give me some suggestions for systems that meet or at least come close to meeting our needs? If yo

I’d look into a camera with local storage on an SD card and a battery backup, or better yet, a Reolink Altas PT Ultra. It records 24/7 to an internal SD card even if the WiFi is cut.

Yes, I think you definitely did a good choice if you are going with Wi-Fi solar powered and Reolink. As a tip, there's the Reolink Altas models (Altas and Altas PT Ultra), those are IMO the best battery powered cameras in the market for residential use right now, especially the Altas model, because

Reolink Altas PT Ultra 24/7 recording out of a solar/Wi-Fi camera is a wonderful (and rare) thing. I just pulled up one I have for a display at my shop. I'm across town, and it loaded the live view in 3 seconds.

Reolink Altas PT Ultra. But you can only really use this one if you have really good lighting at night time because it is color night vision camera. Otherwise you'd have to get a trackmix battery powered version. But if this is going to be used for critical surveillance, and you can drill a couple o
