ffmpeg decent bitrate for multiple resolutions and frame rates

hi there, i want to create a ffmpeg script that will convert a folder full of videos from 1080p to 2160p and 24fps to 240fps is there a way to make tweak the ffmpeg script to never go bellow 10Mbps but if it needs 30Mbps it uses it? for example 4k120fps another thing is that ive been noticing that my gopro night footage gets compressed way more and the ffmpeg lowers the bitrate way too much, for example, the original bitrate was 40Mbps and it compressed to 4Mbps while the same camera footage but during daytime, it compressed to 20Mbps.

I saved myself 14 TERABYTES with this cool trick
I've amassed far too much archive footage on my NAS. It was time to clean up some of that space and compress the footage down. Here's what I did to make that happen.
