Did some more reading on this and I think I'm going to try the Arlo. Battery life is a concern, but the fact that it is totally wireless will work best for a few outside cameras at my mom's house.
Sounds like setup is key with battery life. I also like the fact that they can be wired to power if needed and that the batteries are rechargeable on the new model.
Pretty good article on the comparison between them and Nest. But note that this is for the latest version, which is the Pro.
