OK. I looked that puppy up, and it was certainly cheap enough.

However, it has a pretty rinky-dink "POE" setup if you want to call it that. Separate from the ethernet connector is a non-waterproof barrel connector to which you are supposed to connect to their power brick, AND the power cord is ~~ 10 feet long. What kind of deal is this?!? I need to place this camera about 50 feet from the nearest power outlet. Have you teken the thing apart so that you can actually inject power? It looks like it's only using 100 mb ethernet, so the blue/brown pairs "should" be available.

About to void a warranty...

I just made a security tower.  Blue blinking light at the top. 
Cam with local storage and ability to send me alerts of movement. 
 
Super good at night too.  I think it may have its own IR LED lamps. 
Or it is just really good at night vision. 
 
I have it talking to an android phone hotspot at the tower.
 
Solar powered.  So far so good.  Only have had it up for about a day.  Doing everything I want it to do. 
Sends motion snips of video to my cell phone.

I'm looking for an outdoor web cam.

It needs:   

  • Outdoor
  • IR capability
  • Does not need PTZ; just fixed
  • Probably out to ~~ 40 or 50 feet
  • Needs to be stealth, and I will also want to camo it
  • Wired
