Arlo essential outdoor pan tilt cold weather

[Ryanoutdoors]

Just bought two of these and apparently they don't like Minnesota weather any tips or tricks on what to do for these outdoor cameras to work outdoors in the winter they are plugged in but don't seem to like cold temperatures which is kind of crazy considering they are outdoor cameras.

Are the cameras giving you any error messages? If the temperature is too cold, they may hibernate until the temperature reaches acceptable levels to operate without issue.

No. The one works just fine but the second one after I warm it up will turn on for a few minutes or less then shuts off.. I'm starting to think it's just junk??

What is the temperature there?  The spec'd temperature range is -4°F to 113°F (-20°C to 45°C), so there will certainly be times in Minnesota where the temperature is below spec.

Ranging from -16 last night but it was +12 when I first started having the issue the second camera from the box is about 20' from this one and hasn't had any issues. I think I need to get a replacement camera
