Is anyone using any of the Ubiquiti security camera and their software NVR for their residence?
How does it perform, anything worth noting?

I recently discovered Wyze. https://wyzecam.com
These are fucking awesome.

Going to take a quick look at em, do these also work for the outside?

Ok, so not the intended goal I had in mind, but for $30 bucks it isn't a bad solution.
I'm seeing a USB cord, I assume this means USB to a power block. Do you like the power options? Any option for PoE?

Which would mean where-ever I want this unit I would need to have an outlet within so many feet. Hrm. .

And it is $20 for the base unit. The PAN is $30.
I have the WyzeCam2

Yea. . . I suppose but I also don't want to make my own ends (or run electrical to put these up). PoE would be nice. .

It would (but I don't have any power in my attic (it's just a crawl attic).

I guess the simple answer is, run power to your attic and then use these.

No, it is jsut under the awning, so cannot get wet.

@jaredbusch did you add an additional card to each camera?

I will be because the auto AWS alert upload has a 5 minute cooldown.
I missed catching the neighbor boy smashing the garden because of that.

Now, not to go totally south. I love the UniFi cameras too.
