Recommendations for a video doorbell? (self.selfhosted)

Hey all I'm looking for recommendations for a video doorbell that doesn't need an internet connection.

Preferably something that is WiFi and would work with Frigate?

I use an Amcrest AD410

Just watched a review. Looks pretty good, they specifically mention Home Assistant as well which is very cool.

I also use HA. I’ve been using the Dahua integration in HACS since the Amcrest integration was lacking for the doorbell. Specifically, there was no way to trigger automations when the doorbell is pressed. However, in looking at the documentation I now see a way to monitor via the Amcrest integration. I may give that a go.
