I receive a new battery for my Arlo Pro camera because the original batteries were defective. It's been about a month and my battery indicator light still shows 100%...... after a month of usage........Im using the optimize settings......... Has anybody else been experiencing this ?

When you first start to use a fully charged battery it really is charge 100% and seems to last a long time before the icon shows dropping ( a more accurate test is looking in settings at the % )

 

When charging in the camera, the battery really only charges to 80% so as not to damage the cells if left in on charge long term.... to achieve a 100%, it maust be done in a charge tube ( optional purchase )
