Question 1

So what is the typical electrical installation for this camera? It looks like it has a cord but I dont have any outlets close to where I want them.

Accepted Answer

There is another solution, but it will cost you a little money to accomplish it. You could run solar panels and a converter, and battery. You wouldn’t need many solar panels since the cameras don’t use that much power.  You can buy a solar kit from Harbor Freight that should be plenty of power to keep the battery charged and power to run the camera. 
If there’s a will there’s a way!
You could also modify the outdoor plug in that was showing in the picture of the one reply.. Have to notch the outlet box to allow for the plug to fit or  use a short extension cord and use a waterproof cover for where the extension cord plugs into the camera plug so it can’t get wet! 
The harbor freight solar kit I bought myself to have electricity in my chicken coop to have lights and keep the battery charge for a automatic chicken door. Had the kit 4 years going on 5 years actually and still working perfectly..

Question 2

When you first use the camera, is the "30 day trial subscription" off, so you can evaluate the camera just with the sd card. or is it already on?

Accepted Answer

Hi! By default, the camera will utilize the Micro SD card (not included) storage for 24/7 rolling recording. Kasa Care cloud storage won't be enabled unless subscribed.

Accepted Answer

Hi! For indefinite streaming via the Tapo app, your smartphone must be connected to the same Wi-Fi network or LAN as the camera (and not connected to a VPN).

Question 4

can you get motion alert to your phone without the subscription. Can you view the video saved on sd card on your phone without taking sd card out?
