What has everyone got? 
 
I need something that is truly wireless (no power or network cable) as the camera will be going in the undercroft car park at my flat. 
 
I only really need one camera. Motion detection would be good.  
 
Any recommendations? 
 
Thanks.

Not sure if this should be in geek day or house day but it's kind of car related so I'll leave it here

2 problems. 
 
Battery life, will be terrible. 
Transmission from anything underground, with probably a very reinforced ceiling. 
 
Not ideal but what about a continuously recording dash cam?

Trail cam? Normally used for monitoring game movement but will do the job. Obviously so feed to your TV though

It's technically not underground. It's just underneath the flats. Presumably it will still be a pretty thick bit of concrete though.

Maybe consider a decent car alarm too? Maybe even with proximity sensors? Assuming it didn't go off whilst someone was walking over it otherwise you'd have seen.
