topic Sudden Battery Drain in Arlo Pro 2

Sudden Battery Drain

Retired_Member — Wed, 21 Jul 2021 20:20:21 GMT

One of the two Arlo 2 Pro's I have installed has a sudden battery reserve loss once the battery indicator gets down between 50-60%. Everything's fine in the upper range , but then it suddenly drops down to 25% reserve. This is the second time it's happened in a two month period. The other camera doesn't show any problems.....goes nearly two months between charges.

Try swapping the batteries, and see if the problem moves with the battery or stays with the camera.

Will do. It's at my mother's house. Will recharge both batteries, swap batteries between cameras, monitor for a couple of weeks.

Thanks.
