Night Vision Lost

K80Shooter — Fri, 26 Jun 2020 16:10:45 GMT

For what ever reason around 2am this morning I lost my night vision on one of my pro 3 cameras. It worked good up until then. It also still works good during daylight hours. Just wondering if anyone else has had this to happen? If so what was the remedy to fix it? I checked the night vision settings for this camera and also toggled it on and off a couple of times but it will be tonight before I know if it's working or not. I could take it down and move it to a dark room to check but right now I can wait. I also do not use the spot light with my cameras.

Update...… For what ever reason the camera is back to working as it was. Not sure what happened or why. I will post back it it happens again.

I noticed the same issue this morning. My Pro 3 in my garage recorded a video with no IR LED lights on. The camera is plugged in and always has the LEDs on with night vision. 3:16 AM for me.

@AncientGeek

I did notice that some kind of updates were done last night. Not sure if that is what might have caused this or not.

Try toggling it on and off a few times then wait to see how it does tonight. Report back if it still has issues or if it's back to normal.

I toggled the camera on and off and restarted the base station. I’ll have to check all of the cameras on that base to see if the LEDs are off on all of them.

That worked for me also.

It is interesting that I’ve seen this behavior with my low-end Axis cameras also. Not just Arlo.
