Arlo Pro batteries only lasting a minute

[Rosety71]

Am I the only one that has batteries that last only a minute?? These cameras are worthless.

The pro battery pack  lasts over a month for me... if yours is really lasting a min, then contact Arlo Support

Nope, my system is about a year old and most all the batteries are junk. In the beginnig I'd get two or threee weeks out of a charge. Now, I might get half a day or several days or a minute or two but for the most part all the batteries (ten cameras) are junk. As a last resort to salvage my investment I'm going to install the solar chargers to see how that goes.  If that does not work out well I'll bite the bullet and go to a "real" hard wired system and wite this off to experience.  That is, the best design, and technology is only as good as the junky factory that actually builds the hardware.
