If you have the wire-free stick up camera will this solar panel work with it? Or does it still have to be plugged into the camera?

The solar panel is actually designed for the wireless units if you have recorded plug-in camera you would only be able to use the electrical power or the solar panel at one time you cannot get power by both sources at the same time.

If a cognitively impaired elderly person occasionally wanders, can one of these be set up inside to detect when person tries to exit dwelling without alerting them?

Yes absolutely we use ours as a doggie cam that monitors the room that he stays in. it notifies us on our phone when he gets to moving around - it’s also facing the doorway so we can see if someone comes to the door it would work the same way for cognitively in haired elderly person there’s nothing in the room that’s notifying them that you are monitoring them but you also have the capability to actually turn your microphone on and speak into that room and they can hear you through the monitor so when our dog gets restless and starts doing things he shouldn’t be doing we can actually watch him and speak to him. Thanks to your question I’m going to call a friend and recommend he puts it in his house for his dad.
