I am using my Arlo Go as a Game/Trail camera and I need a way to charge it via a 12v charger, rather than the supplied 110 house charger that comes with it. Right now I'm using a power inverter and a deep cycle battery to keep it running outdoors. The problem is, I get a lot of activity in front of the camera, therefore it only lasts about 10-12 days. The inverter has a fan in it, which also uses up some of my power. I'm wanting to setup a custom solar power system, but I need to know if there is a 12v charger I can use to connect directly to my battery. Can someone tell me if these two items will allow me to accomplish what I need to do. If not, can you provide me with the correct items I need?

As you prob know, the charger needs to be Qualcom type dual voltage...
but out in the past testing , some of these chargers worked but not all....only way to know is to test it. At least there's a good return policy.

The charger in the link is a "Quick Charge" charger (aka, Qualcom Quick Charge), so it "should" work, right?

Yes, it worked for us. We used a deep cycle battery, a pig tale and an inverter to plug the arlo charger into. It ended up giving us an extra 6-8 days depending on activity in front of the camera. We use it as a wildlife camera and there is usually a LOT of activity in front of it. I would image you could squeeze another couple of days out of it under normal use.
