I live in the Dakotas.  I use my Arlo cameras all times of the year.  We get temps below zero, much below zero.  I am looking for Arlo to have a camera option that will record video down to -20F.  I use Arlo cameras wirelessly so even if batteries won't CHARGE at this temperature, it would be fine.  Arlo - What you got for a solution or something coming in the near future?

A couple of things:

 

1) The indoor cameras are powered and also detect motion through glass so you could potentially place them indoors, looking through a window to get coverage.

 

2) While I don't have personal experience with the cameras in that temp, others have reported that using the outdoor chargers has worked. Testing would be needed.

@jklitzke: I believe people using them below the -4F spec removed the batteries as well as using a charger.

 

I suspect this might work with some camera models, but not all.
