I'm replacing the floodlight on the garage and thought why not look for a cam light. I did some Googling but all I can find is a bunch of the the crappy "Ring" or similar type floodlight cameras that are proprietary, WiFi non-BI friendly and basically nothing I want.

Curious if anyone has run across anything better in a similar format.
I'd like to find a floodlight cam that was POE network connected and could work with BI.

Check in the cliff notes; I have some PoE-powered IR and White LED flood lights.

Sorry, I meant looking for security light units integrated with a security camera in them...that are any good...and may also offer POE connection for power and video. (BTW the cliff notes are awesome in general)

I installed one of my Dahua turrets directly beneath a dual floodlight. If you're not paying attention, you won't notice it because they're both white. If someone integrates a motion detection camera firmware with a relay to turn on the flood lights using a quality camera, they'll sell like hotcakes. Mostly because of a single mounting effort. But it needs to be a quality POE camera that's reliable, not some of the worst Chinese crap you so commonly see.

You can send a suggestion over to Dahua via Andy @EMPIRETECANDY
If demand and popularity persists, perhaps they will be able to make one eventually in the future :)

lol..no they wont...dahua does not cater to the ring market...the best place to put a camera is almost never the same place you want a flood. You still need to run ethernet to the camera...there are poe powered floods with poe passthrough.

Still not seeing any POE flood light camera systems out there… all Ring and Kuna.
