Home security camera

[snakedoctor]

Can anyone recommend a good security camera that I can connect to my phone? I'm renting a house in Tennessee but currently working in Arizona. The house got broken into today. Nothing is missing thank God, but I need to beef up security. Since I'm only renting, I'm not wanting to spend a fortune. Any feedback is appreciated.

I use the Ring Spotlight Cam. It sends notifications to my phone, the picture is color and superb, has night vision, a panic alarm and a mic. I think it’s $30 a year for their recording service. Well worth it. I yell at my kids through it all the time.

^ what he said, Ring Flood cam.

Yeah I love my door cam....when the Chic Fil La deliverer hands the food to my wife I chime in with Chic Fil La...AGAIN? BAHAHAHA

I went all in on Ring as well a couple weeks ago. Really like it so far. I'm running 3 outdoor cams and 3 indoor at the entrances of the house. Really like it so far and is super simple to use.

I went with the ADT system. It gave me a discount on my homeowners insurance. Costs me $750/year and I get a $500 discount on my insurance.

I have Ring and a Lorex system from Costco. Both are good but the lorex hardware is superior.

Not that it matters, all you’re doing is seeing someone steal your stuff, it’s not useful in solving or preventing anything

Yeah, one is "states" away, not sure it even matters. Doubt my police get there quick enough, as I would have to be quick enough to determine what is going on, then contact then, and convince them they need to come out, NOW!! I purposely did not put cameras inside, since it's hooked to the net (sometimes).

I have had good luck with my reolink system. Camera quality is great and I can access it from any phone or computer

I have a Unifi setup from Ubiquiti, no monthly fees and I own the data, no cloud saved BS.

Damn another camera thread?

Arlo is another popular option

I use 2 ring doorbells. No complaints here.

I'm using Arlo on my house and workshop.

Hahahaha, I have retired neighbors and people who work from home all around. They call if there's an issue they see.

I use Ring. Spotty service at times but overall not a bad setup as I have 3 around the house. Sometimes will catch a 2mm twig rolling in the yard or a car driving by 3 miles away but won't catch the Amazon driver delivering packages.

Don't forget how useful that Next Door app is

ADT. Blink is also very good imo.

Not Vivint. Anything but Vivint

The wireless junk is vulnerable. At best you can get wpa3 but it's still at risk for a dragon blood attack.
