We are in a unique situation where we need to get creative. We live in a small apartment complex that refuses to invest in cameras other than the stuff they have from like early 2000s. My mother lives in the back apartment (we are in the same complex) So I put the older generation Ring spotlight cam up there to keep a general eye on our cars but someone can easily go up and break in to them and we won’t be able to see their license plate. Not sure if the new ones have better resolution where they can make out license plates at night or not.
Thieves that come through are very bold, they will go to multiple complexes in the area and drive right in with their car, steal multiple catalytic converters and cruise on out. The complex security cameras picked up the car but couldn’t see the plate unfortunately. I can try and mount wire this cameras lower in the carport since we have some flexibility on adding our own but I feel like if they are too high then we can’t get the plate reading and if they are too little someone can easily break or steal them.
I’m considering backing my car into the carport and placing some cameras on the dash facing each direction without a spotlight. They would have to make out a plate at ground level without a crazy amount of light. Would the newer ring stick up cams handle this? There is a wired spotlight in apartments as well, but if I put a wireless ring cam up there it wouldn’t be protected from rain.
Does anyone have any worthwhile ideas? Are there any decent wireless cameras out there, or something I could place on my dash plugged into a wireless power bank I can get better video? Any simple way to protect a ring camera from rain? Would love to hear your budget friendly solutions as we can’t convince the apartments to install any sort of pricey system and we can’t afford to do it ourselves.
We just got our catalytic converter stolen, finally got a new one installed and afraid that it’s going to happen again. My neighbor got theirs stolen last night and the guy pulled right up to my wife’s car after but luckily someone was leaving for work at that moment.
Thanks!
