We just put in new batteries July 4th. Energizer 123 batteries, Saturday July 27th all the cameras went offline. I brought 2/4 cameras inside to see what is going on. I deleted and tried resyncing and that didn't work. I read that a flashing amber light means it needs new batteries.
Anyone else have the issue of Arlo draining batteries?
Our front door camera has caught 24- 10 second videos. 11 of those were in 1 day mowing the front yard forgot to shut them off but that was at the beginning of the month and has only caught 1 every few days since then. But it still shows offline and wont connect so I can only assume it's also the batteries.

Can you set up to get emails when the arlo battery is low? I thought I use to and don't anymore.

I swapped over to mains adapters a year after getting them as some cameras drained the batteries in weeks whereas others lasted for 6 months 
I've had no problems since .

I bought the adapters on Amazon
