Best answer
I just have cameras at a height out of reach. You can use a screw mount for the casing but anyone who is familiar with these cameras knows you can just push the button underneath and pop out the camera guts. But people familiar with the camera will also know the footage of them stealing the camera will be in the cloud. I use a combo of overt and covert cameras. Black silicon skins on a black fence is quite inconspicuous

Just got to put them high as you can get. Or build/buy a protective case around it. Or place them in a inconspicuous spot.

So I'm guessing you'd just use the siren then.

Oh nevermind I just read this only fits the Wasserstein aftermarket charging cables. Damn, back to the drawing board.
