good video, but I would not use drywall screws b/c they will rust quickly. Use exterior deck screws.

I bought a 3 camera bundle with one solar panel. Do I need a solar panel for each camera. New to this camera thing.

Oh I just noticed that you can move the solar panel to each camera to charge. Got it, thanks for the video.

@joycelynschmid6928 Жыл бұрын
According to Arlo the solar panels does not charge the battery it should just keep the battery charged which in my case does not work which is quite frustrating. If you do purchase the Arlo Pro 4 do purchase as well the battery charger, you would need it to charge your battery. There is also a 25 feet charging cable. The cable and charger uses a USB but you would need an adapter for it to work. I taught the solar panel would charge the battery but this is not so which is quite disappointing.

Does the solar panel continually keep the battery charged to the point you don't need to recharge the battery anymore?

There is one issue I noticed. The camera you’re trying to hook the solar panel into must be mounted on a magnet holder. If you have a screw type holder, this will not work, because the end port covers the screw thread. Pls Let me know if others are having this issue.
@migueltorres7911 ай бұрын
We have them also without the magnetic holder and it mounts just fine
