I recently moved and will not have time to setup my original wired camera setup. The new home layout and things is going to make it hard for me to get cables ran(along with cold weather). I am need of camera that is solar/battery powered and wifi that would work well with frigate. I had Amcrest IP8M-T2669EW-AI with original setup.

this doesn't exist really, solar / battery cameras do not support continuous streaming which Frigate requires
Ok what would be the next best option I could start with indoor cameras that sit in the windows for now. So what would be the best option in that regard? They would still need to be wifi based.
If cost isn't a significant factor, I'd say just hire a professional camera installer to pick the best cameras and locations for your objectives (coverage, resolution/detail, alarms, etc.), and make sure he uses a trusted western brand that gets regular firmware updates for security, and publishes CVE's.
There's more to choosing the right camera and installing it well than people tend to think.
I am looking for a temporary solution till i get time to put up my better cameras. So wifi solution was what I was hoping for that would allow me to operate from indoor inside the window. ATM I am choosing Wyze v3 with thingino integration.
