I have 2 Arlo pro outside my house. During normal weather conditions, the cameras look perfect day and night. When it rains, the cameras that are setup outside which are exposed to the rain becomes useless. Common sense allows me to understand what's going on, but I figure that others might have a solution to this problem that might not require me to build bird house for this camera.

I also tried placing an Arlo skin which was supposed to help, but the IR light bounced from the edge of the skin causing a blur image during night vision.

Any camera that gets rain on the lens will have the same problem... not much to be done.

Any form of coverage will help... others have mention using products like RainX but I haven't tried it nor know if it works.

 

A slight tilt on the cam does help the rain run off easier and most cam will be tilted down anyway.
