Is there anyway to convert a regular Arlo battery operated camera (two years old) to a wired camera not requiring batteries???

It has been done before, but it would require a power supply that matches the specs of the cameras, some wiring and soldering and cutting a notch in the camera for the wires which could potentially make the cameras no longer water resistant. Several people have requested that Arlo come out with a way to do this on the original Wire Free cameras. Don't know if Arlo will actually do it or not.

do a search , it has been done. Just remember any warranty will be void

Thanks all. I will do some more googeling and see what I can come up with. Getting really tired of charging batteries. We have nine cameras and and the batteries don't last more than a month or so even if not used more than a total of 1-3 minutes a day. Tried all kinds of different settings etc. Will let you know if I find something.
