Hi, I’ve used several Arlo Go cameras for almost 3 years. Since last year I’ve experienced a significant drop in battery time, I’ve tried to reset the cameras but the problem persists. Could it be battery related? Although, when putting “bad” batteries in “good” cameras they seem to last longer. Does the signal affect battery time? The older models seem to last longer than the new for some reason.

 Since I work as a game warden for the government and have a large number of cameras out it’s not viable to change battery every week or other. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance

The signal strength/quality definitely affects battery life. You could test this by swapping cameras around so a "bad" camera/battery is placed into a "good" camera's location.

Vad jag förstår så ska det dra mindre ström om du har god 4g mottagning. Jag har tyvärr bara god 3g mottagning så under vinterhalvåret håller batteriet bara en vecka. Jag kör med solpanel under sommaren och det funkar bra men just nu är det strul med solpanelen min andra panel. Dom är känsliga för fukt
