Meanwhile, 12 hours later, in the "defective" camera with NEW batteries, I got an email 20 minutes ago staying that the batteries were at 12% then I check the camera 10 minutes later and it is showing as dead. I can't access that camera. I purposely turned all motion sensor off today. I did view both cameras several times today. My good camera with old batteries are full. My "defective" camera is dead.
The firmware on both are the same. Both cameras were/are outside.
Is there a way to return just one camera?

Can't help with what'e going on with your cameras, but can say that during beta test I ran a camera VERY heavy in use ( avg 10-15 mins per day) and the batteries last 82 days..... this equals over the the 4-6 month period listed by Netgear.

Hello Tats,
I'm sorry to hear about the issues you are having with the batteries. There was a announcment about the low battery reporting issues.
I can confirm, we are currently in the testing phase of a new firmware that is expected to resolve the low battery reporting issue when the camera is exposed to near/below freezing temperatures. We are taking great care in releasing this update to the system to ensure we provide not only a quick fix but rather a fix that is well designed and thoroughly tested.
We plan to post an announcement to the community once the new firmware is available for download. It is also recommended that you enable "Auto Update FW" option under base station settings to ensure the firmware update is downloaded within 24 hours of release.

Hello Tats,
I understand your concern. While it may seem that your camera is defective it’s only the firmware that needs to be upgraded. The current firmware you have seems to be not reporting correctly on some cameras. What you can do is remove the batteries from the camera reporting the low battery and bring them to room temperature. Once at room temperature place the batteries back inside the camera. The camera should read the batteries as being fully charged or back in the “Green” indicating batteries are good. I know this is a big inconvenience but this should bring your camera back online. Let me know if this fixed the Low battery problem for now.

I have 2 cameras. BOTH are outside. I have had the cameras for about a week now. One Camera consistently shows green and works well. The Other will show green then later in the day turn red. I got a message in the "defective" camera saying it is time to change batteries and it was dead. I put new batteries in that camera. I then took the "dead" batteries and put it into my good camera and immediately it showed 2 green bars and worked.
