Arlo Essential Battery running out within a week

[Fleet_meat]

Hi everyone 

I have two Arlo Essential Spotlight Wireless Security Cameras and one of them has been running out of battery within a week. it is as active as the other camera and is only about 4 metres away from a wifi unit, which is inside the house. I am a sparky by trade so I have an understanding of battery life and how these things work, however I wanted to know if anyone else has also experienced this and what can be done about it?

I charged it to 100% last weekend and I am due to recharge it already this weekend.

Any help would be greatly appreciated 

Kind Regards

What's the house construction? Have you brought the camera closer to the router to see what happens? Have you swapped the cameras around to see if it's the camera or location?
