Advice on adding spotlight/floodlight cams

Hello! New to the community. We currently have the Ring Doorbell Pro and the base with contact sensors on all of the doors throughout our house. There have been recent break-ins all over our neighborhood and we're thinking about adding a bit more security to the side of our house and back deck. I've looked into the spotlight and floodlight and it seems the floodlight is a lot brighter. The problem we have with the floodlight is there is no electrical outlet on the side of the house we need to add the floodlight to, so we'd have to hire an electrician to do that hardwiring work (any thoughts on ballpark cost for this?). So maybe the battery powered spotlight might be the best solution on that side of the house? My only concern with the spotlight is that it won't be bright enough. As for the back deck, there is an existing light there next to our garage door, so my understanding is this would be a much simpler installation for the floodlight? I have been looking into the Ring spotlights and floodcams, and there are a number of products from the $49 spotlight only, to the spotlight cam at $199, to the most expensive floodlight cam. I've also seen suggestions of going with a stick up cam and a 3rd party motion activated floodlight. So it's all a bit overwhelming. I'm hoping one of you fine folks might be able to suggest a solution for me and what products we should go with. TIA Floyd
