I just bought new Pro 5 cameras. I have setup and am testing one of these before opening the others.
The camera seems to work fine, but overnight, after ensuring that the battery charge is 100% at end of night, I have turned off (via Device Off on app) and disconnected the camera (no wifi), and then the battery status is ~80% the following morning when I turn it on. In other words, it is losing ~20% of charge overnight with no activity.
When it is off and offline, I can still hear some activity in the camera - like it is trying to 'click' on.
It has the latest firmware from update on set up. Please advise....

Bring it closer to your router or hub to see if that helps. Distance and/or other 2.4GHz wireless devices nearby can cause this. Also, how many recordings were made during that 20% time period? If they total well over 5 minutes (the spec is for <5 minutes total per day) that could be the reason.
The click may be concerning. If you point the camera towards a blank wall, does it continue?
