The slow amber LED on the camera indicates nearly dead batteries. Put good one in and you may not even need to sync again.

A UPS for your modem, router and base helps fly through most power outages. The issue is that the cameras keep trying to contact the dead base, wearing down the batteries. The UPS keeps the base and network up so the cameras an base think nothing has happened.
