Does it matter what country you buy your Arlo camera from?

haynef — Mon, 26 Sep 2016 04:34:16 GMT

I have an Arlo 1 camera kit + base station that I bought in Australia. I'm just about to purchase a couple of add-on cameras in the US.

Is there any reason that the US add-on cameras won't work with my base station? As these are battery powered, I presume the usual voltage conversion issue won't exist. I would have assumed the add-on cameras are the same regardless of where you buy them.

Would I be correct?

Don't think it matters for the camera... it syncs only to the base station.

( the only problem I've seen re other countries was the lack of connection into the storage server )

Only if you purchased it (from the black market) in China. There, you'd probably be arrested and your hands would be cut off (not necessarily in that order).
