Security Camera system

I am looking for a wireless battery powered outdoor camera that records 24/7, can connect to wifi for live viewing, and backs up to the cloud.
I only need 2 cameras max.
Also, if there are no battery powered, I can have power ran, but would want to avoid that.
Most of the options I see for wireless is only motion detection record.
TIA

Look into Eufy cams, they are solar powered. You're not getting any battery camera to record 24/7. They will record when triggered.

The only way that is possible with current technology is if it has a solar panel measuring roughly 2 feet by 2 feet.

Sounds like you need a cellular game camera.
You could also run CAT6 and use a PoE switch, which would increase your options from being stuck with a subscription service.

I'll use one that is powered by 110v. I was trying to avoid re-routing the outlet to place the camera.

If you are able to run 110 where you need it why not run cat5 instead? It's easier to run, it provides power and data, it's far more reliable than wifi, and it opens the door to a universe of camera options.

Bingo. This lets you run actual cameras with an NVR setup with something like BlueIris. With enough HD storage, you could achieve your 24/7 request.

I have the Google Home outdoor camera and I am about to get an electrician to hardwire it so I can get 24/7 recording.

You're not going to get somethign that can record 24/7 and be battery powered.
I bought this package about 2 years ago off Amazon. Hiseeu
yeah it's a china product, but i don't actually hook it up to my router. If i did then i could view it from my phone when i'm away, but to be honest i dont care about that. I'm not stoppign someone from robbing me if i'm not home. I simply hope to catch them on camera.
It records 24/7 saving data for about a month and constantly overwriting to keep that months worth of data, connects wirelessly to the main hub/display, but each camera requires 110v.
I thought it was going to be a pain to find the electricity for each, but it really wasn't difficult as i had outlets nearby for each camera.
I've had zero issues, other than a camera dying on my while still under warranty, and they shipped me a new one without any issues for free.
