Does an adapter exist that adapts the pro 2 micro usb to the magnet? Maybe a short cable?

My pro 2 solar panel quit working. Where can i find one?

No.

Can you explain what you are wanting to do with such an adapter?

From AC power? Or are you trying to connect a solar panel?

Arlo no longer sells compatible solar panels. So you'd need to get either a used Arlo panel or a new third party panel. I am seeing a third party panel that claims to be compatible on Amazon for ~ $45 USD.

There is no adapter to go from magnetic->microUSB.

You can still get a compatible outdoor charging cable (with integrated power adapter) from Arlo.

There are several third-party chargers with detachable cables out there - indoor rated cables+chargers can be found for less than $25 USD.

This is why I doubt i will buy more Arlo devices.

Arlo quit supporting my system very quickly.

pump and dump. Cannot trust arlo.
