Why won't the batteries charge if USB is plugged into a high quality Ext cord?? Every 24 hrs, we hav to take our cameras down & plug into an outlet. Nothing tells the neighborhood "we have hidden cameras & now everyone knows!" Totally rediculous. Also If the sun is hot, they stop working. If you install w/in 3' of ANYTHING,at night they will not record except what is w/I 3 feet. All be it the house, a plant, a table. I'm so disappointed after spending $500.

Obviously you're not using a genuine Arlo cable so obviously YMMV. Please confirm you are using the supplied power adapter and not some 3rd party USB power source

 

Maybe you want to look at this option
