I have used one of my Wyze V2 cameras as a dashcam in my pickup truck for several years. It’s stated in the above post how I mount and power it, so I won’t repeat it. All my cameras connect to my WiFi at home, so once I leave home, any camera that goes with me is standalone (normally just the dashcam).
The only exception is for the 4th of July for my professional fireworks show. I set up my iPhone to act as a WiFi hot spot with the same SSID and PW as my home WiFi because I take several of the cameras to the show to shoot video from several locations in the firing pits, and I need the cameras to connect so they can start recording. Once they are all set up, I normally turn off the hotspot mode on the iPhone as it is not needed (and leaving it on is a battery hog on the @#$% iPhone).
