I use TP Link C100 cameras in local network mode and a Reolink doorbell in a similar manner. Standard RTSP feeds and an internal mini web server, plus plenty of privacy controls.
Both of these products are pretty cheap considering their configurability — they do both provide the option to do the whole cloud subscription thing, but work fine for me without it. I have Home Assistant on the back end to manage live streams, but find I usually just read data off the internal SD card instead.




90 cents per charge? And no cable that you discover after you’ve pulled up to the charger is broken?
Seems like this will pay for itself in short order at fast charging stations.
