Thanks everybody. Obviously the best solution would be to either get the WYZE outdoor camera (and base unit), or have an electrician come out. But that’s an expense my wife and I can’t swing right now. Living in CA where the cost of everything is so high, prevents us from getting normal day-to-day items, much less splurging on something new like a new WYZE outdoor cam. Just the cost of gasoline out here is crazy, so having cereal for dinner is not unusual.
Anyway, others have it worse, in fact my younger sister was diagnosed with end-stage-liver disease. What I do appreciate though is all the help and advice I’ve received on this forum.
So I really do mean it when I say THANKS to everyone!
