Wyze Cam - you can get it from Amazon.

We have a bunch and love it.

Pop a MicroSD in and you can access the camera anywhere with an internet connection.

I use three Tapo cameras at home and am pretty happy with the results. I also subscribe to the cloud service that keeps recordings for a month even if the camera is offline.

So I ended up going with a TP-Link C210. We already own a couple of TP-Link devices, and so I had an account with them for their online/app stuff already too.

The C200 is cheaper and basically the same thing (with a smaller resolution) although I couldn't find any stock and needed it ASAP.

Decided to go for a pan/tilt model because I realised the only place I could put it was on a lowish sidetable, and I needed to be able to angle it up.
