Another option is a wireless trail cam. Can get some brands for $100 bucks and monthly plan for $5. Then you can move it around where needed for surprise. Thought about that but I haven't found any for tmobile

Defender guard from Sam's club. Reach cam has its own SD card. Here is a screen shot off my phone while viewing live.

The uploaded pic just doesn't do it justice.

Blink has the initial purchase fee then you can choose to not buy anything else. It saves the videos on your phone for a certain set number of days (your choice) then deletes them,,, but you can save them to your computer off your phone and even put them on a memory card to saved forever. You buy the system and however many cameras them add more cameras anytime to wanna buy more. Right now is the time to buy them too, before the special offer runs out... https://smile.amazon.com/Blink-Outd...mp;sprefix=blink+%2Caps%2C426&sr=8-1 $120 today vs the $180 I paid just a few weeks ago for a two camera outdoor system.

I am surrounded by good neighboors, most exmilitary and being the oldest one around they take care of things for me. I am surprised that in SD ND NM Iowa Kansas that you need such things The neighbors are not the concern. I work nights, the security system gives my wife the drop she feels she needs in such a situation... I wouldn't mess with her, her home defense is a CMMG Banshee with multiple 33 round mags... Bad things can happen anywhere.

Adc, Costco has a 5 camera package on sale for $250 until 9/26. 4 outdoor 1 indoor. I don't think I need 5 at the moment so that deal you linked might be a better option.
You can add more cameras anytime. Just buy the extra camera and add it to the system, very easy. I'd hurry if you think you wanna go that route, I'd bet that limited time deal won't last, may be back to $180 tomorrow. Right now add-on cameras are $60 and the 5 camera kit with everything is $260.00 as well.

I’ve got Eufy at my house. It’s a wireless system that looks like arlo for the cams and ring for the doorbell cam. It uses its own wireless system base station that hard wires into my router. Does not slow down y home network ‘this way. Also uses an app and NO FEES! This was the biggest draw for me. I’ve been happy. Battery life is supposed to be 180 days. Seems like 100-120 and they are rechargeable batteries. Just plug them in like your phone or iPad and give them four or five hours. Setup was pretty simple and the app is very intuitive for me. I spent about $320 for two cams, a doorbell cam, base station and accessories like charging cord. Got it off of Amazon(aka Walmart of the Internet).

We use a Ring plus an inside camera. Good set of ears in the window helps too. This is all you really need... I have a buddy who's a retired cop, he has said that he never went to a home break in where a dog was present during the break in.

I will say after getting into German shorthair pointers I haven’t had a car break in since. Before my cars were broken into at least once a mo th if we accidentally left the doors unlocked. My neighbors cars have been broken into twice in two years.ive learned when my dogs bark there’s a reason and even though they are kenneled people can’t see them from the driveway and are scared. I’ve got video of the fedex guy throwing packages and running back to his truck and slamming the door shut as if the kenneled dogs were chasing him.
