Just wondering if the Outdoor black silicone covers over heat the Arlo in Harsh sun.

Been black in color and absorbing heat easier will they trip the camera off ? 

heat ouside climbs to over 100 and even more when in direct sunlight all day.

OR Will a white silicone cover deflect the heats maybe better and keep the camera running cooler ?

Have used it over the Pro for a while now and haven't noticed any difference.

Silcon doesn't transfer heat well so as a good guess don't think it would help increase the temp of the cam, but in those temps it's going to be warm anyway.

Same experience here, have been running the Pros with the black silicone skin in direct sunlight for about a year here in Los Angeles with no noticable effect.
