Subject: Re: [Shop-talk] Home surveillance system

I have four Wyze cameras - three of the cube cameras that plug in for power, and one floodlight camera that runs on house power.  I have mine connected to Google home, but it isn't required.  I do pay a yearly fee for enhanced recordings and notifications, but if you can get by with the basic free service, it's pretty easy to keep track yourself.

Does one need to have Alexa or Google Assistant to make the WYZE system work?

Look at wyze and arlo.

Both have battery/solar options that connect to your home wifi, and use local storage on the camera or can access your NAS and most importantly do not require a cloud based service or monthly fee.

This one ^^^^ has a rechargeable battery and two way audio and is less than $30.

I have 3 of them at our vacation house.

After yet another issue with a crazy neighbor (had to call the police TWICE in two hours), I have decided it's time to install a surveillance system of some sort. I don't want a single ring camera as I need at least three cameras.

I am hoping for self installation and simple use, but will have it done professionally.

Thoughts please, especially if you have direct knowledge from use.

Thanks
