Is there a way to record continuously even without motion?

Just bought the Arlo from Costco. Thanks.

Yes you can manually record but you don't want to very much or very long.  When you're your cam monitor screen on your computer or phone just hit the live button.  Recording will time out in 30 min if not stopped sooner.  About 8-12 hours of manual recording will empty your batteries.

This of course assumes you have your base station and cams configured.

After you hit the Live viewing button, down the botton of the image, hit the record button that looks like a target. As manfredz said, if you do this often or for long periods of time, you'll deplete your batteries in no time
