those who use Tapo cam, how you guys handle the wiring since it needs power supply from 3 pin socket (i assume)

having the power socket beside cam?

What do you mean by widescreen? Are u talking about the field of view?

If you want those kind of camera but with Pan tilt capability, u should use ezviz h9c, dual view, one large fov and another with narrower fov

I mean it's more practical than a pan/tilt camera

I would rather install more units of c320ws

Most of the time you wont go and pusing2

Have more units of fixed cam to cover wider area rather than relying on pan/tilt
