Just wanted to add a quick info as to the new PRO and the older Arlo base...

Tested the sync and install process and no problems, the Pro synced right up and it appeared in the camera list just like the normal cameras do.

Nothing abnormal working with the Arlo base...

 

As a bonus,

 

it appears that the sense level to trigger is much improved with the few tests I've  run so far... more coming as testing continues.

I'm seeing at 85% level a FAST trigger ... as a quick guess less than 1/2 sec ( indoor testing ) from enter to record. Not sure as to limits of the PIR vs field of view yet.

 

Also,

audio response and mic lag is improved ( over my Q cam )

In my testing outdoors, the Pro isn't triggering on traffic on the street while the original camera is. Same settings for both. Maybe something to do with the dual PIRs?

 

Also, my cameras are outdoors and have seen little difference in detection. Hee e are links from the library - they'll die in under 24 hours.
