Reolink Video Doorbell WiFi - Video doorbell with RTSP and local recording

Quick verdict

A video doorbell that actually works with Home Assistant and doesn't demand a monthly cloud fee. That's the pitch, and it delivers. RTSP lets you pull the feed into Frigate locally. Two-way audio in HA can be finicky, and Wi-Fi range at your front door is worth testing first.

Standout: Video doorbell with RTSP and local recording. No cloud subscription required.
