There is one in the works, you can find the thread here > [@Outdoor/Weatherproof Wyze Cam](https://forums.wyze.com/t/outdoor-weatherproof-wyze-cam/6761): > > We’ve been working on the outdoor camera with our manufacturer! We’re still in the design phase though so we don’t have any dates or promises to give yet. Some people have requested solar power but we probably won’t be able to make that work with the first version. We are investigating battery power though. Best, WyzeGwendolyn ---

Excellent. Seems like the solar/battery tech. has already been fully developed. Maybe pair with an existing source? I have already “weatherized” a unit. Voiding my guarantee I am sure. 6 mo. test - perfect - simply clean the lense now and then. ---

I want the crook to know my property is gathering video evidence **NOW** , even before they get close. (our house is 100 yards from the road). We also have signs posted, “security cameras are recording you” ---

The way I do it is to have a few visible cameras so they know they are being watched, but in case they take those I have a few hidden ones and out of reach ones as backups ---
