        WyzeCam, and their cheap. $20 / each

        At that price it wouldn't be a big deal if they weren't what I needed.

          Drop a 32GB (max) SD card in it for full recording. you get about 2 days at HD quality. Long at SD.

            32GB is the largest they'll take? (Haven't looked through specs yet.

              Nevermind, found it. That is too bad, but not terrible.

                I haven't looked at the specs in months, but I believe so. That would be the only reason I bought 32GB cards.

                  Okay, so install an 8GB SD card, flash the firmware on the camera, setup zoneminder and pull an RTSP feed from the camera into ZoneMinder.

                  Have as much storage as you can provide to ZM.

                    That's way too much work.

                        Go drink more coffee or something..

                        ZoneMinder is a decent solution, but is a ton of work to setup for a simple home solution.

                          Maybe piping the RTSP feed into OBS studio and just recording that to disk somewhere then.

                          I've not done this, but from looking at their forums others have looked at and done the same thing. (not sure with what camera though).

                            There is no native RTSP feed with Wyze cameras.

                            It requires a third party firmware.

                              That was mentioned above, and was what I was discussing.

                                Ignore @DustinB3403 here. The basic Wyze firmware with the card is more then enough for what you want to do. IIRC you can also subscribe to Wyze to get more data storage in their SaaS system. The only big problem I have with it is that you can't see the live feed or recordings from a PC. Although I think they are working on that.

                                    One of their recent communications said they will work on getting rstp in the official firmware. So they are improving. Which is quite impressive at that price point, you don't normally see continued development.

                                      You're right. Sorry. I meant ignore the part about installing a 3rd party firmware and Zoneminder. It doesn't seem like that's a good use case here.
