I have a new system with 4 cameras. One of the cameras chews through batteries. When I change them (twice as often as the others with the same settings) I have to fight to reposition because it wont display video. 20 feet from the base with only one vinyl siding and wood frame wall (exterior) between the camera and base. I spent 30 minutes just now getting the stupid camera aimed right. Max bars the entire time. The other cameras take a while to get back up once I change batteries but I want to smash this one on the ground. If it weren't too late to return I would return the entire thing.

Swap positions with another camera and see if the issue follows the camera or the position. If the former, create a trouble ticket for possible RMA. If the latter, something is interfering with the signal - try a few temporary repositions to find a better place to mount.
