ReolinkDirect (97% lifetime positive feedback from 3,600+) via Amazon is offering its 1080p Argus 2 Outdoor Security Camera + Solar Panel for $86.21 shipped once the on-page 25% off coupon has been clipped. That’s $29 off the typical rate there and comes within $5 of the lowest price we have tracked in over a year. If you’ve been wanting to boost home safety but don’t like the idea of swapping batteries or plugging into the wall, this Argus 2 solar security camera is worth considering. Not only will you net full HD recording, you can embrace solar power thanks to the inclusion of a solar panel. Cloud storage plans are available in addition to microSD card support, allowing you to choose where your data is kept. A free cloud storage plan is available and will keep a 7-day video history using 1GB of storage. Rated 4.2/5 stars.
Need an indoor option? Wyze Cam v3 is definitely worth considering. Priced at only $33, this affordable and feature-packed solution sports a 1080p sensor, motion detection, and even free 14-day cloud storage. Like the lead deal, you can choose to keep content off the cloud using a microSD card. Bear in mind that this unit requires a powered connection instead of running off batteries.
