You've got me looking these up. I see versions by Arlo and Eufy on Amazon that seem similar with two cameras for about £200. The battery life seems good as I don't want to be messing around with cables. I'll have to read some more reviews to see if they do what I need.

The Arlo brand is pretty good. I've used the same one for 5 years (Since 2018). I got the set to watch the place when I went traveling around America. It was nice to have eyes on my phone around the house, inside and outside.

You can also attach a hard drive to the router to store your own videos locally if you don't want to use the cloud storage (which is free for me, not sure if they still offer that to new users). It's deleted after 7 days, by which time you can download it to your device, etc.

It's gotten a bit less good over the years though. When I first got it, it was so fast it felt like real-time. Now there's like a 1-2 second delay (Latency). I know they sold the company to some other owner, so they probably changed something.
