I've had a Nest cam for about 5 years and that little bastard runs HOT. I cant believe it hasn't blown itself out just sitting there inside. Bad engineering, IMO. You probably have a popped solder connection on the PCB that makes connection until internal temps get high enough, then things expand and the connection is broken. I kinda doubt these things have onboard thermal management that can measure internal temps and shut down accordingly. But maybe they do.
