TeddyM,

 

For safety reasons, the solar panel will not charge the battery in your camera at or below freezing temperatures. For more information on this, take a look here: My Arlo Solar Panel is not charging my Arlo Go or Arlo Pro camera battery; what do I do?

 

Arlo Ultra cameras are weather resistant, and should not be negatively impacted by outdoor conditions if the instructions in the following article are followed: Are Arlo cameras weatherproof?

Arlo community. We have been scammed by Arlo corporate. Camera's will not charge at temperatures of 37 degrees or less. Don't you think that Arlo should advertise this. I mounted 4 cameras up high outside with solar panels. You have to get to them with a ladder. Now the temperature has been in the 30's and the cameras won't charge do to temperature.. Your joking right ?? Nope... I have a set(4) of NightOwl cameras. They do fantastic at temperatures minus -25. Beware that when your watching live video YOUR NOT.. I have a 30 second to 7 minute delay, but its showing you video an it says its live.. If someone is trying to hurt you or kill you.... YOUR DEAD..Arlo camera's are junk...over priced junk. My Nightowl 4 camera set $179.00. Are way better than theses PIECES of crap. False advertising is a crime
