Having major issues across two devices with motion sensitivity turned down to 1. The driveway has trees so there are shadows and even with only people and vehicle notification turned on the camera is recording at one minute intervals and sending updates. One day and the battery is down to 50%. Absolutely rubbish. Anyone have a solution aside from removing cameras from the area you actually need to monitor?

Ensure you are adjusting the sensitivity in the camera rules contained in the selected mode. The sensitivity adjustment in the camera settings menu under the test utility is for evaluation purposes only.

 

 If you have motion occurring in front of the camera you can use activity zones on that camera to select motion in a wanted area. You will need external AC power to enable the zone feature on the camera.
