What is the best way to position your arlo lights with your arlo camera? Is it best to place together, one above the other or facing each other a distance away? Example, right now I have my lights on the house facing out in the yard and the camera mounted on a tree facing towards the house and arlo light but this doesn’t seem to be getting me the best picture unless my camera is too far away to utilize the light being put off by the arlo light system. Any suggestions on how some of you have you in the community have placed yours systems up would be appreciated. Thanks

I limit my light and camera to about 15 feet apart aiming in the same area....
It lights up well and the camera and light can toggle each other to come on ( so I cover twice as much area with the PIRs )

I use them many ways, in dark areas more or less side by side, I mainly use them as a combo Light and Motion detector. I set the Light so it will detect motion and trigger cameras before the person even enters the field of view. Generally I set up the rules so several lights and cameras trigger, so no matter which way the target goes I'll have great video. I have noticed a dramatic drop in dirtbags and door knockers since setting the Arlo system up, Kirby Vacum Cleaner sees the set up and bugs the neighbors, lol
