Looking for a doorbell camera that isn't a Flock spy

None of the residential security cameras are Flock spies. But the WiFi Cloud cameras spy for themselves. Avoid ALL WiFi Recurring Subscription Cloud Cameras, as they all have at least one vulnerability: Ring, Nest, Eufy, Wyze, Blink, Arlo, etc. Always PoE if possible, anything going to the Cloud is

Tweaker neighbors

The only thing that worked for me with the tweaker next door was putting up cameras everywhere. The alley? Yep. Both directions. The backyard? Two more, one records continuous onto an sd card. The front? Doorbell and blink camera. The alley cameras are literally the only reason the losers stopped us

Need a camera that can actually see the FLOOR — apartment hallway, packages getting stolen

I have a blink doorbell can. They see more than you think. Itd be tough to hide from it. You can also mount it lower

Is my lab part cow?

Few weeks ago, Blink doorbell system updated with an AI overview of what your camera saw in the clip. My black lab was in the backyard and I got a "A domesticated cow on your back porch' on one of the notifications, lol.

acho que a proprietária da casa que alugo está entrando na minha casa quando saio para o trabalho

Blink cameras work just fine & will alert you as long as you have it ‘armed’ in the app. Place one in your main rooms & look at a ‘live’ view at different times during the day. If you want the person to see it so they know they are being recorded, just leave it on a table or counter. Blink makes a g

Woman living alone, where to start?

So many thoughts on this, and a few folks here have hit some great points already. Here is my 2 cents. For video doorbells, I'd skip both Blink and Wyze and go with the Ring Video Doorbell (battery version) since it's more reliable for security purposes and has better motion detection zones. The fre

Home security cameras without monthly payment

I have Blink, they talk to a hub in your home that can then send you a notice when the camera is triggered, and store videos or images to a USB stick that plugs into it. There is quite a delay however, most of the time when someone rind the doorbell button, they walk away before I can respond.

Weekly Stupid Question Sunday

Wired floodlight cams. The video and sound quality is lacking, connectivity and motion detection issues, live view can be laggy, issues with the app. We have a long range router, so it's not the wifi. They're okay, and have held up to various weather situations, but when some stuff went down in our

Looking for new cameras

If Ring and Blink are both already missing motion for you, I’d probably stop trying to make that combo work and just move on. Your real checklist sounds like: wired power existing chime support no subscription if possible faster/more reliable motion capture one app that doesn’t suck That’s honestly
