I've owned 3 arlo pros since the beginning and have a pro 2 as well. I've removed the batteries from them and run continuous AC power. This way they work when it's -25 Fahrenheit and I get the 2 second playback on the pro 2. 

 

I like my arlos and would like to upgrade to pro 4s with the 50% coupon but have a few questions. Can I remove the batteries from the 4s and will they work when it's frigid cold with continuous AC power? Two of my cords routed for my cameras will be very difficult to replace with new chargers. Could a knowledgeable person splice on the magnetic charger end to the existing cord that is currently a micro usb? I do not want to be charging batteries ever.

Only testing would determine if the new cameras would work as the old ones have. No guarantees but it's certainly worth a try.

 

One could potentially swap connectors on an existing cable but you'd have to figure the wiring out and be very careful due to the thin wires. It's possible but...
