Battery drains way too fast

Menhem — Thu, 02 Jan 2020 20:48:06 GMT

Hi,

I bought Arlo Pro 2 with 2 cameras and the base station the other day, but I am experiencing a lot of problems with the batrery. Both cameras have run out of battery after just 4 days? Is the battery on Arlo really that bad or am I doing something wrong?

Thanks in advance!

Hi @Menhem

How far away are the cameras from your base station, what are the signal strength bars showing within your app?

... and how many "events" do they capture?

If there are 00s of recordings every day, that will eat juice.

New batteries can also take time to get up to speed.
