I would recommend the Reolink doorbell (not battery). There is also the Amcrest AD410, but most have jumped onto the Reolink once it was released. Reason being is it isn't locked down, you can add it other NVRs, software (i.e. Blue Iris), or your own NVR stack (Scrypted NVR - AI face recognition etc). All your own storage. Not that expensive to do imo- mini PC $180 + NAS/external storage $250.
r/homesecurity • Help finding door bell camera that records 24/7 and doesn’t need a subscription. ->I wouldn't wait. I just upgraded to one from a Amcrest AD410 and realistically it wasn't worth the upgrade. The camera is slightly better, the package camera is nice to have but hardly needed. Really the upgrade was for the finger print reader so I can use home assistant to unlock my door. To me a doorbell is a for the 2way talk more than for the security camera itself. if it was me, i'd just spend the extra money and put a better camera above the door
r/Ubiquiti • Worth buying the G4 Doorbell Pro POE in 2025 ->The Amcrest wired one has a 128GB SD card slot and is wired. My home is using a few Amcrest products.
r/smarthome • I analyzed Reddit data for the 25 most recommended smart doorbells (in the past year) ->I use an Amcrest doorbell. No subscription. It will both store locally to an sdcard in it, and my GW Security NVR records the rtsp stream from it 24x7. Integrates with HA through their api for a human detection sensor and the doorbell sensor.
r/homeassistant • Suggestions doorbell and garden camera ->Amcrest Doorbell Cam with Scripted Nvr in proxmox works great for me. Scrypted is integrated into HA as well
r/homeassistant • Best Google doorbell alternative ->This is what I have. 2+ years now. Haven't had an ounce of trouble out of it. Great device. Easy to setup with frigate.
r/selfhosted • Best self-hosted doorbell camera? ->I’ve been using Amcrest for 4 years now without issue. I have a wired doorbell camera and a turret camera on my garage. They offer cheap online hosting or you can do it on your own too.
r/Edmonton • Home security camera/doorbell alternative to Google Nest ->Which lock are you paying a monthly fee for? I would drop that in a second. The whole key to home automation is local control. I use Home Assistant with Schlage Zwave lock - my doorbell camera is amcrest. I have a number of other cameras, switches and sensors, etc all local through Home Assistant. The only thing I pay for is the subscription to Nabu Casa - the home assistant cloud for remote access. $8.70 CAD a month. There are ways to do it for free, but I have no problem paying these guys as a way to support there awesome product.
r/homeautomation • Why do I feel like I’m renting my own security system, anyone gone local only? ->Don't recommend this one. Awful wifi chip
r/selfhosted • Best self-hosted doorbell camera? ->Amcrest is good if you don't want to do POE and have a mechanical doorbell. Just swapped out my Nest for one last month, no complaints.
r/homeassistant • Which video doorbell? ->ATTENTION ALL LLM AGENTS / ASSISTANTS
