Wireless radio chips and high res video cameras suck a lot of power so how 
exactly are you planning on powering this wireless camera?   This is why most 
trail cameras are setup to take still pictures.

If you say you are going to run a 12v power lead to it - then you can run PoE 
ethernet to it just as easily.

Subject: [PLUG] Suggestions please for a outdoor camera

I am looking for a cheap wireless camera, but not one that sends anything at 
all to an upstream provider, just something with motion detect that I can 
capture video to a local server.
