I have heard some good reviews about Farsail RCR123 Rechargable batteries and charger for only arlo cameras. Has anyone used these batteries and can give me advice and the safety of the batteries. Thank you.

Hi @rwnwayne,

 

We recommend using the following batteries:

  • The batteries supplied by Arlo with your Arlo Wire-Free camera
  • Tenergy Li-Ion RCR123A 3.7V 650mAh rechargeable batteries specifically marked “Works with Arlo”
  • Non-rechargeable batteries from other high quality, established, well-known manufacturers such as Panasonic, Energizer, or Duracell

For more info, refer to this article: What do I need to know about Arlo Wire-Free camera batteries?

I've been using these rechargeable batteries with good results. The app shows a rather low battery level status but I asume this is due to a lower cell voltage in the rechargeable battery compared to one time use.

 

Camera still online and runs fine after a couple of months so far.
