Arlo essential spotlight

[jyouso]

2 of 5 cameras have, seemingly of their own volition, began activating their spotlights for 1 second, then shut off with 2 red lights on either side of the lenses remaining on for 10 seconds before shutting off. Then the camera is again activated by motion, activating the spotlight again for 1 second, shutting off with the red lights remaining on. Why are 2 cameras suddenly doing this while the other 3 continue to function properly?

I don't know why this is suddenly happening, but I suggest swapping one of the cameras with one that doesn't have this symptom.  Then see if the problem moves with the camera or stays with the location.

You can also try removing a camera from the account, resetting it by holding down the sync button, and then adding it back again.  https://kb.arlo.com/000062403/What-is-the-button-on-the-bottom-of-my-Arlo-Essential-wire-free-camera
