Light bulb style cameras
Just wondering if these things could be used with SS, or at least viewed in a web browser... or are you completely locked into their phone app besides SD card? Thx.

It's possible - according to this document from LaView's web site, their cameras support RTSP, and the RTSP URLs they use are the same as Hikvision, so their cameras should work with SecuritySpy using the Hikvision profile. However, this document doesn't specifically provide a list of camera models, and it's not certain whether the lightbulb camera you refer to would be covered by the document, so it's still not clear whether this camera would work with SecuritySpy. You could try contacting LaView to ask them if this specific camera supports RTSP, or you could buy and try it (but make sure you'll be able to return it before you purchase).

Thanks, Ben.

I didn't even know these existed! Thanks for asking this question and providing the link. My Dad has been interested in putting some security cameras up, but solar and/or battery just isn't really practical for him, and retrofitting either power or POE was more trouble than it is worth. This may be the answer!

No problem, but it should be noted they may not be very good... I just saw someone asking about them somewhere, and was curious, no real use myself. Although if they doubled as light bulbs I might be more interested :-)

Yeah, I did a bunch of research on them and came to the same conclusion… haha
Shame, because there’s no reason they HAVE to be bad.

I've sampled and returned over 5 'bulb cameras' from amazon.
These Jennov 2K light bulb camera's are inexpensive and are onvif enabled by default.
Support Zoom on KB and PTZ. Currently running 3 of these outdoors on the gulf coast.
Last about 2 years outdoors under eve with duct tape over the memory card slot.
