I use wyze cam doorbell with docker wyze bridge
r/selfhosted • Best self-hosted doorbell camera? ->Used to have google/nest. Now have Wyze and happy.
r/BuyItForLife • Wired doorbell\video camera that doesn't require a subscription? ->We have a Wyze and are happy with it.
r/BuyItForLife • Best Doorbell Camera That Doesn't Require A Subscription? ->TP-Link's Kasa or Tapo devices are what you want. Get a large enough memory card and you'll have 24/7 recording for a month. Great quality video as well. I previously had Ring, Nest, and Wyze doorbell cameras, my Tapo doorbell camera is superior to those.
r/homeowners • Video Doorbell w/out Subscription? ->Google/Nest has really great AI detection. Hella quick. Otherwise it's not really a security camera. Nice to have, super appreciate it being able to recognize faces and tell me when [friend | mail lady] is at the door. It's AI with a camera and doorbell functionality. Ahead of it's time with subpar hardware. The wired functionality let's it integrate directly into your existing doorbell so no other devices needed. If you're looking for a camera with doorbell functionality, go for [Ubiquity / Unify](https://ui.com/us/en/camera-security/special-devices). If you're looking for the cheapest camera option, [Wyze is pretty great](https://www.wyze.com/collections/video-doorbells). But it sucks at everything else. Really you'll get to pick one, maybe two from the list of doorbells out there: Good doorbell (any wired option). Good camera. Good AI. Good integrations (smart home, access control, etc.)
r/Nest • Is Nest Doorbell (battery) worth buying in 2024? ->Yeah, wyze AI sucks ass. It's definitely a "you get a good camera" type of doorbell lol I've been rolling my exterior wyze cams on SD card and couldn't be happier.
r/Nest • Is Nest Doorbell (battery) worth buying in 2024? ->End of story. Reolink. If poor, then wyze. But get reolink.
r/BuyItForLife • Best Doorbell Camera That Doesn't Require A Subscription? ->Funny thing is that I have a full on 100% wyze setup and they are great. Reolink is just better, but wyze is fine. For the price actually it's really good.
r/BuyItForLife • Best Doorbell Camera That Doesn't Require A Subscription? ->Same. I do have one issue with the wyze bulb socket they refuse to fix but otherwise they work great!
r/BuyItForLife • Best Doorbell Camera That Doesn't Require A Subscription? ->Yep exactly. The problem is that you cannot control the lights independently of the camera. Setup is: Wyze switch Wyze lamp socket Wyze cam v3 The switch cannot turn on the lights without turning on the cameras. The switch cannot turn on the cameras without turning on the lights. The app says it can. It cannot. I saw a bunch of forum posts about this issue, so I'm not alone. Even troubleshot it with customer service, they agreed, they saw the forum posts... The still haven't fixed it. It's been probably 2+ years.
r/BuyItForLife • Best Doorbell Camera That Doesn't Require A Subscription? ->From a practical point of view the Wyze doorbell and interior petcam we have have been great. It sounds like others might have some security concerns? So weigh the options I guess
r/BuyItForLife • Wired doorbell\video camera that doesn't require a subscription? ->Having had both a nest doorbell and a wyze doorbell that both crapped out both in less than 3 years that we've owned this house, I can recommend against those, but don't have a good recommendation.
r/smarthome • What is the best doorbell camera? ->Wyze is a small privately held American company and their products work well
r/homesecurity • Privacy concerns - what doorbell cameras are NOT owned by the oligarchs? ->My only beef with the Wyze doorbell and other cameras is the Ai is weird. “Something moved in the frame. There also a car in the frame. I must’ve seen the car” so it alerts about a car…meanwhile there is a cat walking by. The image quality and the cost of a subscription for 99 bucks has me switching everything over to Wyze.
r/Nest • Is Nest Doorbell (battery) worth buying in 2024? ->We use the Wyze as a baby monitor. Works well, better picture than my ring doorbell, and it doesn’t have a service attached it to it, plus it is dirt cheap.
r/BuyItForLife • Wired doorbell\video camera that doesn't require a subscription? ->We have Wyze ones too - they work all winter long.
r/Winnipeg • Doorbell Camera Recommendations? ->The outdoor outlet uses a different voltage, so you'd have to plug in a transformer to it. Or wired into an enclosure. If you want to go to the route of using a plug-in transformer, you need a 24 volt AC transformer rated for at least 1.5 amps for 1,500 milliamps. It wouldn't look great though. I'd recommend spending a little extra and having an electrician wire in a doorbell for you. I use wyze for cameras and doorbell. It's a cheap subscription and the hardware is cheap too. So it's really expandable for your needs.
