Arlo Pro battery charging stats.

Streak2 — Fri, 03 Feb 2017 19:08:26 GMT

After two months I received the 15% left reminder email yesterday on one of my cameras.

It's the highest traffic one of the ones I have installed. Resolution is set to the highest level.

It's the first time I am charging thre battery in this camera.

This morning I pulled it down to recharge it and at the same time used some test equipment to get some stats.

Initial charge voltage was 9.43v

Initial charge current was 1.08A

Charge voltage when fully charged 9.37v

Current when fully charged 0.11A

Capacity 1486mA

Total charge time about 2 hours.

I will wait for the next camera's battery to go totally flat and then redo this exercise to test the capacity of the battery from empty.

Pretty happy with these results.

Sounds very good...

Similar results here with hi quality video, ran in spec use for 2 months and had 43% left.... recharged only due to moving it and didn't do it after placed in new location

I forgot to mention, one small quirk,

The camera was online most of time while it was charging but then suddenly went offline.

After charging was complete I opened and closed the battery door, the blue led gave its fast flash and then it re-connected no problem.
