Does this have to be hardwired or can it power off one of your solar panels? null

The Spotlight Cam can run off of a Solar Panel, but you need a battery(ies) inside. I am currently using it and it seems to work so far. Just when you buy it, make sure you don't buy the "Wired" Spotlight cam. I made that mistake. Check the label on the box.

Hi Grammy,

Thanks for reaching out.

In order to support its robust array of features, Floodlight Cam needs to be hardwired into a standard junction box. As Floodlight Cam requires a junction box as well as wiring up live wires, it's highly recommended you hire a licensed electrician to install Floodlight Cam.

Thanks,
