My home's two "side walls" are gable ends. I want to put a security camera and security/flood light on each of the gable ends, but I haven't found guidance about how the cameras should be located with respect to the flood lights. I plan to mount both in an area about 12' - 15' above ground level.
What's the best way to locate them to lessen the chance of one interfering with the other, and hopefully complementing each other? For example, for nighttime camera viewing with the flood light on, is it best to have the camera above, below, or beside the light?
The flood light will not be dusk-to-dawn or motion sensitive. It will only be turned on/off by a switch in the house. I'm looking at LED wall packs and flood lights in the 3000 - 5000 lumen range. The IP PoE cameras will be hardwired, i.e., not wifi.
Thanks,
Ira
