    I mean, they make manual pipe cutters. They’re not that expensive and operate silently. No reason to activate the shot spotter microphones

      I recently watched a video about the quickest and quietest way to cut through thin wall tube, that had absolutely nothing to do with cameras what so ever. They determined portable band saws were the most practical method; balance being relatively quiet compared to other power tools while being the quickest. Manual tools were most quiet but the slowest which leaves you vulnerable.

            Maybe you could retrofit them to be a one time use per charge and keep the power packs in a backpack? IDK man im doing my best over here.
