Yes, that's correct - it does not have motorised aiming, you simply point in in the correct location and then use the zoom to "frame" your…

843A is a much newer design, with a 4K sensor (E1 is 5mpx) and a 5X zoom (E1 is 3x) and also has vandal-resistant design which adds cost.…

They're quite different cameras. 843A is a vandal-resistant dome camera, with a single zoom lens and max. 100 degree viewing angle. Duo 2…

Looks like the 810WA also has an ethernet port. Can you temporarily connect using that, to see if it fixes your connectivity problems?

The software is quite flexible in determining the area to be monitored, and also setting the minimum size of object that can be a trigger…

>What's the benefit of that in the nutshell? It removes the device permanently from the Tuya ecosystem. The advantage is that open-source…

You can't hack Tuya itself readily. But there have been ways to flash alternative firmware to bypass Tuya, or modify the way it works.

I have no idea, given the massive variety of items available from AliExpress, but the major difference is obviously using WiFi for…

That should work just fine

See my comparison above about the Meross one, which is functionally identical to the Orion one you've linked.
