These seem to be some of the devices from Amazon that are circumventing our safety/communication standards coming from china. I'll pop one open before I toss em and see if they have a esp32 or something reprogrammable to tinker with. Thanks for the suggestion! | |

They are clearly Chinese clones of more popularly branded cameras, and about zero documentation for them online from the manufacturers. Without the ability to connect them via VLC stream or OpenSource DVR software, I would consider them trash. | |
