Good morning everyone. As this has been going on for the past couple of months after the last update. As there been any other fix? My arlo Pro 2 (Base model VBM4000) still using crazy amount of batteries. I have 5 cameras and my last charged was on 8/22/18. As of today, every battery is dead. Settings are still the same (medium settings for all cameras). My base has the latest update Firmware 1.10.0.8_22190. And yet some how my batteries cant last longer than a month. Is there a fix to this? I bought my system back in February of this year and it was doing well then. Now, well this is how long I am getting.

 

Now, outside cameras all get the same amount of activities, minimun. And the inside never run when I am home. So, the fact that they batteries are draining so much, is do to something else I think.

 

Any help, would be appreciated.

Thanks Rick

I had the same issue.  Some cameras drained quickly and others took forever.  I chalked it up to location in that the cameras that drained quickly were the ones in high traffic areas.  I finally invested in the Arlo Solar Panel and could not be happier.  I have 5 cameras all with solar panels.  Highly recommended.  I know this is not much help but it worked for me.
