Some days in the winter the temperature will drop below the lower range of 14 degrees for the cameras. &nbsp;Does the quality of the videos deteriorate? &nbsp;Can the cameras get damaged when the temperature drops below 14 degrees? &nbsp;What about the batteries? &nbsp;Will the batteries leak and ruin the cameras? &nbsp;More explanation would be appreciated.</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>Also, can the cameras be physically mounted to a ceiling or wall w/o the magnetic ball?</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>Thanks.</P> Wed, 28 Sep 2016 20:26:22 GMT https://community.arlo.com/t5/Arlo/Temperature-and-the-cameras/m-p/282#M9077 mead_dogman 2016-09-28T20:26:22Z https://community.arlo.com/t5/Arlo/Temperature-and-the-cameras/m-p/285#M9078 <P>With my limited knowlege, I can tell you that the cold temps will degrade the chemistry in batteries at low temps...</P><P>When this happens the battery will put out less power and/or not be able to keep up with demands.</P><P>Some batteries will loose 1/2 their capacity down around the 14 degree mark.</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>The battery itself should not leak due to the cold, so thats prob not a worry.</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>As to the electronics, tho i don't think it will be harmed but it may be possible...think of putting your cell phone out in really low temps, some screens don't function well till warmed up.</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>Netgear/Arlo would know better and prob answer this better</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>The cameras can be mounted on a standard camera screw mount, the ball mount is for the internal magnet which does make it easy to move, adjust angle at any time.</P> Fri, 09 Jan 2015 21:18:04 GMT https://community.arlo.com/t5/Arlo/Temperature-and-the-cameras/m-p/285#M9078 TomMac 2015-01-09T21:18:04Z
