Spotlight Cam wired questions

I have a VD3+ battery, and in all honesty am a little disappointed in battery life. I subscribe to protect basic. So I’m thinking of getting a Spotlight can wired as was going to fit a floodlight as well. How good is the floodlight on these? I don’t want the floodlight cam by the way. Good enough to light up a small garden? Can you get the floodlight to just come on when detects motion during certain hours? I’d like this for during night when out an about, with it being wired I wouldn’t mind it being on more. With it being wired I presume it’s just as easy to keep it recording all the time, maybe snooze if your in the garden a lot, is this what most do? As I’ll keep the VD3+ still should I subscribe to protect plus, and then get the 10% off before buying the cam? Or does it take a while to activate. I’d have to go protect plus with 2 devices, is pretty steep at £80/year though have to say. Did it come with just a lead coming out of the camera with a UK plug on? The way I would install would be through the wall to a inside plug. Would I then need the extra hardware kit? Or could I just cut the lead, and make a junction box? Not sure how long the lead is on UK version? Can you remove the wiring from the camera so I could push it through and leave the wall plug inside and then reattach the wiring to the camera outside? Thanks
