This Tapo camera is wireless and the mounting is magnetic. So if you have any metal you can attach it to it requires no holes to mount it. Just buy a recommended SD for it and it records locally so no storage plan fees. https://www.jbhifi.com.au/products/tp-link-tapo-2k-smart-wire-free-security-came

Yeah, their camera subscription is ridiculous. I got the 2K Tapo camera with an SD card and a LR camera mount for ~$80. It doesn’t require any yearly fees, has AI pet detection, lets me view the camera in real time, and saves as many videos as I want.

Have you thought about getting another camera to position better? You can get a TP-Link Tapo camera that's solar powered for like $50. Can be hosted locally too without a subscription, just drop in a microSD card and you don't have to worry about any sort of additional subscription to store the vide

Just dealt with the same problem, we got a doorbell camera, id highly recommend it, its a TP-link Tapo camera, cheap enough off amazon and if you buy an SD card for storage you dont have to pay for any subscription services. Fortunately for us its a decent enough estate and I managed to spot one of

I have multiple non AI cameras and honestly I have no interest in the petlibro AI camera even though I love their products. My TAPO cameras detect if my cats are meowing and they are set up in strategic places so I can keep track of their drinking, eating and litterbox habits. They cost about 20€ to

I have a bunch of cameras, most without memory cards because I use HomeKit Secure Video (Scrypted =>Apple Home). It was cost effective for me to buy the H500 plus a 2.5" SSD versus a bunch of microSD cards. Note: Installing a memory card disables the local stream needed for Scrypted, which is why I

We have 8 outdoor Tapo cameras and they work fine for us. They are PoE/wired to the network and not using the WiFi capability built into them. The cameras can be configured to record to a NVR and we had one for quite a few years but I shut it down recently. We have SD cards in the cameras and use th

Have more than 20 TP-Link Tapo cameras, wireless, RTSP and writing to SD card as well. Cheap and works great but all related on your wifi configuration - I have several APs as the house is big so bandwidth is distributed among them.

We've been using C460's for watching bats roost (our bats are rare and endangered) Great low light performance makes these way better than trailcams. Similar for predator control (possums, rats, mustilids) are killing a lot of new zealands wildlife every night. Tapo could do great things with this p

This is honestly a big deal for me too. The main thing that attracted me to Tapo is the ability to use their products with just a standard internet connection and the free Tapo app. Most things can be done without the need for a hub or a subscription. I like how I can use a Micro DS card with their
