Arlo pro battery on permanent recording

[legend27]

While looking for an industrial solution for wireless cameras I came across the Arlo Pro.

I need to switch off an areas cameras to replace but the client requests a temporary solution while that area is off, needless to say wireless is my first choice. I am looking at a maxiumum of 24 hours of permanent recording on the Arlo Pro while the camera changeout is taking place, whereafter I can replace / recharge batteries for the next area. Has anybody tested the battery life on permanent recording?

They will not do recording for 24/7 .   They are designed as 'motion detect then record' type systems ( cause they do run on batteries and batteries have a finite life )

The Pro cams record for for set times not near what you need.

The closest camera that may work would be a Q camera with the additional CVR option. The Q cam is indoor rated, runs on AC and the CVR allows 24/7 record. Normal motion detect / record  videos will occur and those videos appear in the Library too.

(RE  CVR;  tho it will be saved for your service time limit, the 24/7 can't be downloaded without third party sw )
