    Not exactly what you asked for, but I went with Eufy with local storage. There is a home base so everything is stored here and not in the cloud. Costs a bit more but gives me peace of mind.

    Downside is that it won’t work if my internet or power is out, but that happens once a year, max.

    For door I’d go with Yale with the hub to lock and unlock remotely.
    Don’t know of a combined solution, sadly.






  • Hey man, I’m an Android dude for phones. Won’t even consider an iPhone as I dislike locked ecosystems for phones, but this is just not true.

    Apple supports their devices way longer than any of the major Android producers do. I can’t remember the last time my phone was supported more than 3-4 years, but my iPad was just rock solid and updated for 6 years. Replaced it because I wanted more RAM for scrolling endlessly on Reddit, but it was brilliant for everything else. My daughter still uses it with no issues today, two tears later.

    The missus’ Samsung tablet on the other hand…
    What a piece of crap, and it was top of the line just three years ago.








  • It’s a fair response. Some uf us aren’t flush with time.

    I’d survive SSH for installing Portainer and then you can run most of it from its GUI. If you use Docker Compose it will be super easy to make changes to your setup as well. Just change the file and redeploy your badboys.

    I’m a recent dad absolutely strapped for time, but I still managed to set up a headless Debian server with close to zero Linux knowledge. There are so many amazing guides out there, especially on GitHub.

    Good luck whatever you go for.
