Go 2

[Charhill3]

I am looking to purchase a Go2 Camera to monitor a piece of property for people dumping etc. T mobile has a 15 gig plan that I can purchase. I am looking for the correct plan from Arlo for 24/7 activity on the raw property. Can anyone help? 

Thank you!

Just to clarify - the Go 2 does't record video 24/7.  It only records when it is triggered by motion or (optionally) audio.

Arlo advertises a 23 ft (7 meter) max motion detection range:

That said, my cameras often will trigger on vehicles that are further away - just not as reliably.

Whether 15 GB is enough depends on how often the camera is triggered - which of course depends the area it is covering.  It also depends on how long you tell the camera to record when it triggers.

Thank you sir. I appreciate the feedback. I have an Arlo door bell and it works great. DO you think the solar panel will keep the camera powered up r will I need to change batteries. The property is 30 miles from where I am.

I don't have a Go 2.  But my understanding is that using mobile data does result in faster battery drain.  So the panel is a good idea.  I don't know if it will be enough - that depends on camera activity, and probably also the quality of the cell reception that area.
