Best Floodlight/IP Camera combo for SS?
I am trying to find a good combination outdoor light (with motion sensor) and IP camera to connect to my SS software.
This is for a home.
A google search didn't produce much.
Thanks for any suggestions.

I would prefer a wired camera for this, as I have found the configuration of wireless cameras like this to be very painful. I have used an Axis M1011-W inside my home before.

Hi Mac,
The Dahua IPC-HFW2100 is a good low-cost waterproof camera. We have more information and recommendations on our 10 Recommended IP Cameras blog post.
As for a light with a motion sensor, most hardware shops sell these. You won't find a combination camera/light device; you would have to purchase these separately.
Hope this helps! -
To clarify, some cameras have built-in visible lights that can be activated via motion detection, however no outdoor cameras have this feature (as far as I know), and the light level is quite low. For a bright light that illuminates an outdoor area when motion is detected, you're better off purchasing an outdoor light with built-in PIR motion sensor.

Thanks, Ben.
