My Arlo Essential Camera with solar panel will not start charging unless I do a camera restart from the App. It's within the operating temperature range, all software is updated. Sometimes it does work without a restart but almost always I have to restart it.

megatec45,

 

Does this behavior only occur with the solar panel? If you connect a standard charging cable is the behavior the same?

I've only used the charger once and it works, so I'm pretty sure it only happens with the solar panel.
