    On my PRO 4 I removed the battery and there is a sticker with the model name on the camera

    Yes.  Also, both use microusb for charging.  If your camera uses the magnetic connectors, you have a Pro 3, Pro 4, or Ultra.

     

    BTW, if you have a camera that uses four CR123 batteries, then you have the original Arlo Wireless HD camera.

    The two pro cameras are fairly easy to differentiate;

     

    Pro 2 below has a white bezel

Approximately when did you purchase?  Did your purchase include a base station?

 

The camera models all start with vmc. If your camera has a removable battery, then there likely is a label behind the battery inside the camera.
