I have the Netgear Arlo Pro cameras and even though they have rechargeable batteries built in which makes it easy on the pocket, it's still a pain to recharge them. Let me introduce you to my solution. Weatherproof Outdoor Power Cable for NETGEAR Arlo Pro & Arlo Pro 2 (16ft/5m) - amzn.to/2KnHCMG

Thank you for this video. I saw in some other places where people hardwired their cameras.

This is the easy way, unless you really must have it that way. Quick tip: if you are going to install cameras outside get the solar panel to self-recharge the batteries.

Thank you. I got my arlo pro 2 about 7 years ago and also bought solar panels for each differently so I don’t have to keep charging them. Three of them are at 100% batteries but one is in 1%. We don’t have much sunlight for days now. My question to you is, does this type of weather(no sunlight & rainy days) causing the solar panel not charging? This is the first time happening since I bought this 7 years ago. Also, this one that’s in a low battery is kind of hidden from a direct sunlight too.

Hello, do they make a solar panel to keep Arlo pro 2 cams charged?

I somehow lost my charger. I wants to hardwire my arlo pro camera (inside & outside,, with the plugs inside) It says I need a 9v plug in adapter but yet every charger I find as a replacement for my arlo pro is 5v. My regular phone chargers won't work at home. Can you help me?

@MrSergio1159 4 жыл бұрын

thanks for the information, will this cable work with any USB charger? I notice when I bought my Arlo cameras that when I connected the Arlo cable to a regular USB charger that the cameras would not charge.

@ChardTheTechGuy 4 жыл бұрын

Yes the cable will work with any charger, but the charger minimum pecs have to be "Output Voltage: 5V 2A 10W"

Bro how come my joints aren’t holding a charge? I got 1/6 that’s charged and is telling me the percent. The other 5 shut down right after I un plug???

@ChardTheTechGuy 2 жыл бұрын

That's a good question - maybe the charger is not providing enough juice to the cameras. Try an more powerful charger - that's what I use. ( kzfaq.info/get/bejne/sNZodrZ4nbfbgoE.html )

Thank you Mr. Tech. In my humble opinion, vandal resistant Dome POe cameras is the best solution. Arlo can be knocked off with a stick. :)

Yes I agree, hopefully it will capture the person who did.

Thanks for sharing, what do you think about using solar panel instead? I see arlo sell a pack of them, not sure how well performing they are
