I was curious if fewer long videos is better for the battery life compared to lots of short (15 second) videos. Please let me know, I get a lot of short videos and I’m thinking fewer long videos might be better for the camera since it will alert less.

Qrylander,

 

The number of individual videos in this context is less important than the length of time the camera is recording in total. For example, 3 videos at 12 seconds each and 1 video at 36 seconds should result in similar battery consumption. For more information about battery life, see here: https://kb.arlo.com/1202753
