Wyze Cam v3 (wifi) -> Its 35$ with very good night vision ( amazon link ) Make sure to get a SD card for local recording Then use this docker app to get raw RTSP urls and LAN only -> https://github.com/mrlt8/docker-wyze-bridge https://github.com/mrlt8/docker-wyze-bridge Next use Frigate as your NVR -> https://github.com/blakeblackshear/frigate https://github.com/blakeblackshear/frigate -------- The wyze cams use about 3-5 watts of energy over USB. This make perfect for using a USB battery bank, a solar "generator" like the comments mention, or any place you can get "usb" power. This assumes you have Wifi, but if you have say a 4g modem, id assume it has wifi hotspot on it, most do. Then you still can connect the wyze cams to them. If you are concerned about privacy, thats where the docker app + sd card comes to play. You are recording to SD and also RSTP streaming via the docker app. If you are ultra concerned, just block the api calls with your favorite firewall/adguard/pi hole. I have this exact setup and very happy. Runs on docker, I self host via traefik and VPN into my box for access.
