Arlo Pro and Solar Panel Wasserstein question

chudak — Sat, 28 Jul 2018 17:29:00 GMT

As my subject suggests I have Arlo Pro and Solar Panel Wasserstein.
When I added solar panel it used to slow down discharging of my Arlo Pro battery, e.g. it would not actually charged it.

However lately I see my Arlo Pro battery being actually charged.

Not that I complain 🙂 But wondering, what happened? Did Netgear improved firmware to be able to do so ?
Thx

Mine are on the wasserstein panel. The only problems ive had is back in may when all the firmware bug stuff was happening. Mine was ok after the 1st firmware bug fix. But i know others have had issues and they have put out several more firmware updates since may trying to fix it. My batteries have been fine since may

There was a bug causing the ir lights to stay on in the camera. For me its fixed. Others still having issues. Some still having fast battery drain and cameras going offline on and off. In may mine would drop 10% overnight even with camera turned off. Now it stays where it should and does not drop overnight
