I have 3 Arlo Ultra 2 cams and an Arlo dual charging station. When I charge battery #1, the charging status light eventually turns green. When I insert this battery into a cam the cam’s blue light blinks and the cam operates ok.

But when I charge battery #2 the status light remains amber and blinks; and when I charge battery #3 the status light remains amber and doesn't blink. When I insert battery #2 or battery #3 into a cam, the cam’s blue light does not blink and the cam does not operate.

Are battery #2 and battery #3 useless now?

Sounds like they need to be replaced.

 

If you go ahead with that, you might also consider upgrading them to XL while you are at it.
