We've recently been blessed with rain in here Southern California, but it seems to collect on the outside of my Arlo Pro camera, causing any video to be totally blurred.  This morning's video, after yesterday's light rain, is completely blurred.  (This camera, one of 4, is mounted outside and totally exposed to the elements.  The other three, which are also mounted outdoors but have varying degrees of protection, are fine.)  Is there any way to avoid this?

I applied a coat of Rain-X to my outdoor units,  It helps to shed rain drops from the FOV duing rain.  Just make sure that you wipe off the Rain-X  completly after the application.

Twinwire,

 

Adding to Hula_Rock's suggestion, some users have also had success when using the Arlo Pro skins to combat this issue.

 

For more information on these, see here: Arlo Pro Skins - Set of 3 Black Skins (VMA4200B)
