Essential Outdoor Camera 2nd generation

I’m very frustrated with Arlo. The 2nd generation camera is not compatible with the Solar Panel Charger for Essential Cameras. It would have been easy to keep the charging port and male cable on the solar panel the same but then Arlo wouldn’t be able to screw me by requiring me to buy and install a new solar panel. A small adapter would be helpful but of course that is not available.

re00319,

I apologize for the frustration. It is true that 2nd generation cameras are not compatible with 1st generation solar panels. You can find more information about the 2nd generation solar panel here: https://www.arlo.com/en-us/accessories/VMA6600-10000S.html
