Solar Power Solution for CCTV???
Thinking of doing similar. Most poe nvrs need 240v supply, i think i'd use a 12v nvr or dvr without poe and just power the cameras at 12v, one less inefficient power conversion. when i worked on a few sites that were being surveyed for wind generating sites the wind measurement devices (lidar and ultrasonic anemometers with data logging and a satellite modem) were powered from banks of gel batteries in a bund charged from a few solar panels. The draw at 12v was around 2a and these things were left there for months. I would charge a hefty maintenance fee though.

Why strobes are wired independent
Quite often burglars are drug users. The purpose of a strobe is if the burglar has dropped an e recently and they see a strobe light they will stop what they are doing and start dancing like a loon. The strobe can keep them dancing for up to 12 hours, which is almost long enough for police to attend and catch them. If they can be bothered.
