Rain... and my ARLO Loses the Plot

One of my 8 fully-working ARLO cameras lost the plot a few evenings ago. I couldn't understand why there was as good as near-continuous recording of NO motion activity from one afternoon to the early hours of the following morning (all evening and all night long) which resulted in the energy from the batteries being totally depleted.

RAIN and WIND. The camera picked up rain (not actually that noticeable to the human eye) and it recorded "motion" continuously until it couldn't record any more.

Needless to say, I'm not happy. None of the other cameras have done this.

If the camera is faulty, how will I know?

- Was going to post to an older (December 2016) thread, however it is closed; couldn't find any way to post there!

Try power cycling the camera. If the behavior is repeated, you might have your motion sensitivity turned up too high
