Use of the spotlight at night helps but you may want to consider some motion-activated outdoor lights to help since the 25 lux spotlight won't extend the view very far.</P> Thu, 07 Nov 2024 15:02:36 GMT https://community.arlo.com/t5/Arlo-Pro-5S-2K/Adjusting-Brightness-Day-and-Night/m-p/2426231#M3424 jguerdat 2024-11-07T15:02:36Z
