C211 manually turn off IR
Not having the ability to mount a camera externally and not having the ability to turn off the automatic day/night-IR switching makes the camera useless for covering my driveway at night from my window.
It seems if I'd gone with the cheaper c210 this feature would be available? Seems like this kind of customisation, already built into other cameras, should be standard?

Tapo C211 is an indoor camera. If you're looking for a camera for the outdoors, check here: TP-Link Home Security - Outdoor Cameras
The infrared light cannot essentially be turned off. Some cameras equipped with 940 nm IR LEDs, like the Tapo C120, can make the infrared light invisible to the human eyes. However, when the IR camera is placed behind reflective surfaces such as glass windows, the infrared light can still be reflected, which will affect the camera's night mode images.
