If the problem moved, then the problem would be the battery.

Are you using the arlo supplied charger cable, and recommend adapter or using a charging station?

Also, are you using the outdoor charger with the magnetic cable?

Or are you using the microUSB port inside the camera housing?

Do you have a different cable or charger you can try (5 v, 2 a)?

The indoor charging cable for the Pro 3/Ultra won't charge the floodlight - you either need to use the outdoor charger, or the internal microusb port. 

 

If you used the microusb port, then maybe try a different cable.

Try swapping the batteries and see if the problem moves.
