I am new to using an outdoor camera.  I purchased the arlo Essentials Security Bundle.  It comes with 2 cameras, but only one solar panel.  Do I need to get another solar panel in order to charge both cameras?

bobandamber,

 

Arlo Solar Panels are designed to charge one camera at a time. You will need to purchase an additional solar panel if your intent is to charge both cameras using solar.

Be careful ordering the solar panel. Arlo has at least 4 that are not interchangeable. I ordered a solar panel "Designed for Arlo Essential Cameras" and an "Essential Outdoor Camera" and they were not compatible. The small print on the camera box says "2nd Generation". If you have the right connection fitting and you know how to splice wires, you can make it work.
