Hello, I have a pro 2 camera with a solar panel. Here is what it is doing: The camera will be at 100% still charging, online, working as normal. Hours later after I look back in the app, it says this camera is offline. It takes days to come back online. When it comes back online, the battery is at 1% and charging normally. The weather lately has been low 90's in the afternoon and 60's overnight, mostly sunny.

 

My questions are, why is it going offline? Is the solar panel overcharging the battery and making the camera go into some sort of protection? Should I try replacing the battery?

 

I've had my system for 2 years, with a solar panel on this camera for 1 year.

The panel won't overcharge the battery. I would start by removing and resyncing the camera.
