Hi, I wanted to illustrate the glitch I get when I open my app since it has been upgraded now to 2.6.0 and then 2.6.1
When I open the app, it show an orange battery icon 1/3 drained by the 1st 2 cameras for about 10 seconds and then disappears. On these 2 cameras right now I have 52%. The little orange battery icon shows up even when these cameras are attached to the charger.
Are others seeing this from the app?
I leave most of my cameras plugged in using Arlo Brand power adapters and I leave the batteries in to have battery back up in case the power goes out. I am currently trouble shooting poor battery life on my non-pluged in cameras and one of the customer service techs told me I should not use the power adapter with the batteries in all the time. Is there a problem doing this?
Thank you,
Steph
initially when app is opened

No, I believe that is incorrect.... the battery in the camera only charge to aprox 80% ( tho it reads 100% ) to eliminate any possible damege to cells if the charge is left on all the time.
Only the charge tube really charge to a true 100% charge... nice thing is if you use the tube to charge, the pack last 20% longer
