Battery life

Just opened the Arlo system and installed - battery life has reduced by 10% in 60-minutes - hope this is not going to be an expensive purchase/mistake!

In normal usage my Pro battery has been getting 3 months.

Just so you know, the live viewing and recording use the most power, having armed to detect motion then record uses a lot less.... Spec usage for time on battery is 5 or less recoding per day....YMMV based on yor own use
