I am running 2 of these cameras on AC power with no battery. Once in a while one particular camera stops recording and gives a red alert "It is time to charge your battery". There is NO battery in it!

I have to reset the power to the camera and the camera comes back on line. This is a nusance. I am currently away from home and I am unable to do that and there is no recording happening. Any clue as to why why this false alarm is triggered?

@Gidmo,

when you get a chance, swap the locations of the two cameras to see if it is camera related or power supply related.
