Can the Wyze Cam Pan be installed outdoors? I didn’t see anything on it being weather resistant or weather proof but is it safe to install it somewhere dry like under eaves so as to prevent it from getting rained on?

I wouldn’t unless it was fairly well protected from the weather. My guess is that it would survive getting some weather more poorly than a V1 or V2 camera because of the moving pieces.

None of the Wyze cameras were designed for outdoor use at this time.

You can buy enclosures to convert cameras for outdoor use if you want.
