    So I have a few wyze cameras but it isn’t the end of the world as I specifically placed them where they would benefit me but i wouldn’t care if cops got access to the footage (so specifically pointing at my front door, not the street).

    But apparently amazon has both the coral USB dongles and yet another pi 4 that I really don’t need on sale so… yolo, let’s frigate.

    Anyone aware of any good wireless outdoor cameras that play well with that ecosystem? Will eventually run ethernet for POE and the like but “eventually” is not any time soon.

      I’ve been using Amcrest cameras with Frigate and a Coral USB. It’s been working perfectly. My cameras are on a VLAN with no Internet access and it hasn’t caused any issues.

      Is the Pi4 on sale still around the 100$ mark?

      I’d love another Pi at the original.prices

      I’ve been partial to amcrest they’re affordable and “us” based even though they’re rebranded dahua cameras. Everything I’ve read says they’re compatible with frigate and even home assistant if you plan to use that as well. I’ve been trying to do a similar setup for myself.
