widget1,

 

You must use the 9V Arlo Pro power adapter and power adapter cable that came with your Arlo Pro system to charge your Arlo Pro. A regular 5V Micro USB cable does not have high enough voltage to fully charge your Arlo Pro Wire-Free camera.

 

What power adapter can I use to charge my Arlo Pro or Arlo Go batteries?

the Iphone adapter has enough current for the camera and it will run fine......

BUT, What I would do is pull the battery for safety
