Can this camera be attached to a solar panel? It’s not a pro.if so will I have to use a Arlo one or can you suggest a compatible solar panel?

No. Generally, the cameras use non-rechargeable batteries so a solar panel would be useless, even if you found a way to hook it up. Even with rechargeable batteries, such as the approved Tenergy system, you'd have to figure out how to charge them since the batteries actually are two sets of two, with the camera switching between them.

 

It wouldn't be impossible but likely would need some electrical knowledge and lots of putzing.
