Hi!

What is the maximum power consumtion on the camera during communication to the basestation?. I feel that the batterylife is short!

Thank you for your answer. Have a nice day!

Regards

Search here - I think I remember a couple of posts about such data.

Battery life usually boilds down to 2 things - total time of recording and live viewing as well as the quality and strength of the WiFi connection.

By you title I 'll guess the original Arlo camera... to answer your question;

currrent draw peak ( not normal run current ) , IIRR, was about 200ma+, normal run current was about 100ma, armed mode very low, not armed almost null

On Arlo, with OEM cells and the Best video, I get consistantly almost 4 months ( capacity is aprox 3000ma )

On the Pro , I get with best video about 3 months +/- , ( capacity is 2440 ma )

These battery powered cameras are VERY dependent on the AMOUNT of live view/recording ( which use the most power)...And spec usage is =<5 min per day.   Some of my low usage cameras with a few mins a week go over 7 months on OEM cells.
