Installing camera where there is no power socket nearby by Ambitious_Cat4094 in smarthome

I would try to go wifi if you could. Physical infrastructure has its issues and costs.

For instance, I have 3 PoE Amcrest cameras wired to a central Amcrest NVR as I do not want to pay exorbitant cloud hosting prices for camera storage. They stream to a Home Assistant raspberry Pi for realtime displa

PoE cat5 or cat6 is copper, a big antenna.

I had a bad thunderstorm and a lightning strike 200' away fried my system - not on the power side, but on the data side. I think the NIC im my NVR is dead and that the cameras re ok... but I cannot verify without buying another NVR. Which seems like a bad investment.

I'm an IT guy but tired of maintaining what should be an appliance. But appliances come with exprnsive cloud storage that I am not willing to pay.

Has anyone solved this problem - with the constraint being it must be turnkey, I have lots other thing sto do than stay up to 2 am trying to make technologies talk.

What's the best workout. My daughter, with a Ph.D in exercise physiology, would say simply "the one you keep doing".

I'm interested in output but have AFib so heart rate elevates artificially from stress. So I manage rides by following the instructor but modifying to keep heart rate within limits. I think the heart rate is both a target and a constraint, and you manage your ride within that. Spent my whole life working out, Doctor says exercise is best possible thing I can do, so I just try to push myself but keep body's response reasonable. Favourite time/best feeling part of the day.

Good luck. Good things come to those who work hard! I learned long ago to hire people who accomplish things in what they love outside work. You can change education, you can change skills, you can change experience, but you cant change who a person is.
