Recommend video doorbell and cameras

We are after a video doorbell for our elderly mother in laws house, with the potential to add internal cameras.  Ideally not Ring brand (as me and my partner have Ring at our house, so don’t think it’d be easy to have 2 different properties on Ring app) 
after a wireless video doorbell to start with, and possibly add 3 or 4 internal cameras when she’s out of hospital. The internal cameras would prefer to be battery powered for ease of installation 

any recommendations please of brands to look at?

  • Actually very easy to have 2 different properties on the Ring App, you can set separate locations. You can also save money on the subscription by doing that as well.

    I have what seems a nice neat quality item branded GeeRee which I bought from Amazon. It uses an app called Cloudedge which some other types of cameras etc seem to use. Although a cloud based subscription service is offered I don't find it necessary. It has an internal SD card and it is relatively easy to save any images you want to on your phone and email them for backup. It comes with a power supply but will also work from most existing bell transformers.

    However, as I assume you also experience on Ring, occasionally notifications aren't instant and even if they are by the time you fumble for the phone and get to the right screen some callers will have gone!

    It can also be configured to work with Alexa by installing a common "skill" or whatever they are called.
  • Eufy are a solid choice, no subscription require and excellent image quality

    Hi, was looking at what is out there myself I hope this info helps. Sorry can't post links but I have this one from Amazon - ASCU Video Dooorbell 5MP UHD (now unavailable) but another version is - ASCU Video Doorbell 2K HD. Both are wireless but can also be wired and have homebases which can be set to chime and come with 8gb of storage (5mp internal - 2K external sim card). An internal camera(s) AOSU 2K QHD Baby Monitor can be purchased, and although not wireless they are wired via a usb cable, plus a sim card can be used to storge video.
