New Pro 2 cameras ....I am in a cold part of the country (0-25 degree overnights)and the cams are outdoors under the eaves. The battery has lost 3-4% per day since installed. 97 to 80 in 5 days. Arlo says that bringing inside and removing batteries may refresh and keep them from losing power so quickly. Anyone tried this?
Or can I use a power adapter to keep them plugged in all the time?

You can leave them powered with the adapter all the time.
Arlo normally recommends that you keep the battery in the camera when you do this, as it allows the camera to keep running when power fails. But it will work with the battery removed too.
