    My video doorbell takes power from the existing doorbell wiring, but there’s no reasonable way to use that for data, so it’s WiFi (I really should see if I can pull Ethernet through but then I need to pay for a new camera)

    Other models are battery powered and supposedly last as long as half a year.

    I’ve seen WiFi cameras you can hang anywhere: battery powered and kept charged with a small solar panel
