Home security systems are a necessity, but how easily you can set one up depends on your situation. If you’re renting, you likely won’t be able to drill holes in the wall. And if you’re looking for both indoor and outdoor security, that might mean double the devices and twice the expenses. Not to mention the multiple power sources, apps, and video feeds you’ll also have to manage.
The Botslab W101 Window Camera is a wireless window camera system that makes all of this easier. It attaches directly to any window pane using a mounting sticker, so you don’t have to worry about drilling or any modifications. And it uses two separate lenses to simultaneously capture footage both inside and outside your home. Whether you live in an apartment, a house, a motorhome, or anywhere else, it gives you home security without complicated installations. Here’s what you need to know.
Two cameras, one device

The biggest selling point of the W101 Window Camera is that it has two cameras mounted on a single device, the OutView and InView cameras, so you can monitor both sides of your window simultaneously. You can easily set it up on any window to cover the rooms and exterior locations you want to protect.
The OutView camera, as the name suggests, faces outward through the glass, providing the monitoring you would expect from a dedicated outdoor security camera and helping to keep your front porch, driveway, yard, or entryway safe. On the other side is the InView camera, which faces inward and keeps an eye on the room it’s in, whether that’s a living room, hallway, nursery, or home office.
Both lenses shoot in 2.5K ultra-clear resolution, and the camera supports up to 8x zoom, so you can clearly see details like faces, license plates, or anything else that needs a closer look.
Getting both views with a single device is a big positive. You don’t have to buy two cameras, worry about separate power setups, or monitor different feeds. It’s a smarter use of space and makes everything easier to manage compared to standard indoor or outdoor cameras.
The InView camera also comes with a physical privacy shutter, in case you were worried. And if you don’t want the indoor lens active, you can disable it directly from the app. The indoor camera only captures photos or records video when you manually trigger it, so it’s not passively watching when you don’t need it to. But the physical shutter provides an extra layer of protection.
