New out of the box I have been charging 1 camera for 10 hours now and it is still only at 80% charged.</P> Tue, 15 Jan 2019 18:24:43 GMT https://community.arlo.com/t5/Arlo-Ultra/How-long-does-it-take-to-charge-a-battery/m-p/1670013#M210 Rfvj 2019-01-15T18:24:43Z https://community.arlo.com/t5/Arlo-Ultra/How-long-does-it-take-to-charge-a-battery/m-p/1670041#M212 <P>That sounds excessive.... I would guess 3-4 hrs max</P> <P>&nbsp;</P> <P>Tho in the Pro/Pro2 the battery in the camera really only charge to 80% ( it will read 100% charged ) as a safety factor if left plugged in all the time to not damage battery. This may be a full charged battery but just a flaw in the reading.</P> <P>&nbsp;</P> <P>(To get a quick estimate of any charge, look at the output current of the charger and divide into the capacity of the battery)</P> <P>( output 500ma /capacity battery 2000ma... 4 hrs aprox )</P> Tue, 15 Jan 2019 18:24:57 GMT https://community.arlo.com/t5/Arlo-Ultra/How-long-does-it-take-to-charge-a-battery/m-p/1670041#M212 TomMac 2019-01-15T18:24:57Z https://community.arlo.com/t5/Arlo-Ultra/How-long-does-it-take-to-charge-a-battery/m-p/1670100#M220 <P>The indoor chargers seem to take an inordinate amount of time to charge. Note that the charger is 5v only. I also have the outdoor 25 foot chager which is 9v and it charges much more quickly. I don't have hard numbers for either so can't tell you what to expect other than many hours for the indoor charger.</P> <P>&nbsp;</P> <P>I also haven't tried a charger that supplies both 5v and 9v outputs such as those supplied with the Pro series of cameras. I doubt it would make a difference but it might be worth a try.</P> Tue, 15 Jan 2019 18:25:15 GMT https://community.arlo.com/t5/Arlo-Ultra/How-long-does-it-take-to-charge-a-battery/m-p/1670100#M220 jguerdat 2019-01-15T18:25:15Z https://community.arlo.com/t5/Arlo-Ultra/How-long-does-it-take-to-charge-a-battery/m-p/1670126#M224 <P>I purchased 2 of the 4 camera kits and only one of the charging cables/adapter worked. Have to take it back. <a href="https://community.arlo.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/378">@jguerdat</a> can I ask where you purchased the outdoor charger. Have some on back order with Amazon<BR /><BR /></P> Tue, 15 Jan 2019 18:25:48 GMT https://community.arlo.com/t5/Arlo-Ultra/How-long-does-it-take-to-charge-a-battery/m-p/1670126#M224 addertay 2019-01-15T18:25:48Z https://community.arlo.com/t5/Arlo-Ultra/How-long-does-it-take-to-charge-a-battery/m-p/1670228#M247 <P>As a superuser, I have some backdoor methods to obtain things.
