And probably four times the quality. If I could go back in time and choose Reolink for every camera I have, I would. In a heartbeat.

I’ve owned a bunch of Foscam cameras, a sub-brand owned by Amcrest.

Amcrest and its Foscam sub-brand seem very interested in getting access to your cameras, have less capable and less convenient software, and the cameras themselves seem less well built than Reolink.

I bought a half a dozen V1 Wyze cams, and at least two of them have failed. I won’t touch that brand again. I also would never have used Wyze at all except for the exploit that allowed custom firmware installation for real local access and control.

Think you replied to the wrong person. I don’t like or recommend Amcrest.

Amcrest is all up in your business.

You must not be talking about HA Core. Because some of those add-on additions are just straight up impossible for Core, as far as my experience.

Node red is the most notable example.

Maybe if you’re a deep Linux head, but the rabbit hole of “first do x, which requires y, which requires z, which requires….” Seemed infinitely deep for me, who has only a passing familiarity with Linux.

Again, I’m talking about Node Red on HA CORE.
