Just how much does temperature affect the motion sensing capabilities of the Arlo cameras? I live in Nevada and it gets super hot in the Summer with temperatures hovering around 115 degrees. Can such temps adversely affect the Arlo cameras' ability to pick up motion? I have 3 outdoor Arlo cameras and 2 of the 3 are not picking up motion like they normally do.

I have noticed that direct sunlight does affect the motion. It tends to reflect the ir off cars more but people less. Remember the passive infra red detects difference in tempertures. Its hard to say though because lately my motion has not been up to par like it was when i first got the system. For me when the sun is bright it picks up more cars and less people which is the opposite of what i want it to do.
