The SimpliSafe camera is DESIGNED to work indoors (in a temprature controlled environment).  The "outdoor" kit may protect it from moisture, but it does not compensate for the wildly varying outdoor temperatures.  So it is not going to work as reliably as indoors.

Outdoor security is very different from indoor security.  If you want outdoor cameras, get cameras designed with outdoor security in mind.  You want 24/7 recording and motion sensing notification.  You want that motion sensing to be optimized for outdoor temperatures, so standard PIR is not going to cut it.

Is SimpliSafe working on wireless battery powered all weather outdoor security cameras as an alternative to Blink from Amazon?
