Reolink's Argus 2 is truly wireless. It runs off of batteries. For $140, you can get the camera with Solar Panel to recharge the batteries. It has 2 way audio and can accept a MicroSD Card. Reolink does not require a subscription for Cloud Storage and it supports both Push and Email.
I have several Reolink RLC-422 5MP cameras on my sticks and bricks. These are IP Cameras that are wired to a POE Switch. Not practical for a RV, but the Argus 2 certainly is.
I've never heard of Wyze Cams, but they look okay. Like Nest Cams and Ring though, they require 120v. An IP Camera gets power from the POE switch. My switches and Cable Modem are on battery backup. Lose power, no problem. Lose power with 120v cameras and you've got nothing.
