How many total minutes per day of live view and recording is being done? Spec battery life is for <5 minutes per day. Camera positioning can be an issue, too, since poor signal strength and quality causes the camera to struggle to maintain the connection to the base. This can be caused by distance, 2.4GHz interference from any nearby wireless devices, blocakge from ductwork, mirrors, other metallic objects in the straight line path between the base and camera or even house construction (stucco has wire mesh supporting it while brick and stone can lead to dense walls).  

 

Move a camera near to the base to see if the situation improves. If it's only one camera, swap cameras around to see if it's the camera or location.

The lack of charging cables, now until May 8 at Amazon, is really testing me.

Especially as you consider one cable only in a 4 camera package, as many have noted.

Expediting production and shipment of a cable shoudn't be that hard 🙂
