My Recommendations

For Multiple Camera Coverage

Wyze Cam v3 is unbeatable for budget multi-camera setups. At ~$150 installed per camera, you can cover 4-6 locations for under $1,000.

For No-Wire Installation

Eufy SoloCam S40 or Arlo Pro 4. Both are battery/solar powered with excellent quality. Eufy wins on no monthly fees.

For Maximum Deterrence

Ring Floodlight Cam Pro. Bright lights + loud siren + motion detection = active deterrence. Best for driveways and high-risk areas.

For License Plate Capture

Arlo Ultra 2 with 4K resolution. The extra detail matters when you need to read plates or identify faces from a distance.
