I have had a two camera wireless system for about 1 year.  The last week one of the camera's has been eating batteries like every day and the other one is fine.  Today I went to change the batteries and it won't turn on.  When I put the batteries in it turns the blue light on for about 2 seconds and then nothing.  I have tried multiple batteries even taking the known good batteries out of the other camera with the same result then putting the batteries into the other camera and it works fine.  Do I have a bad camera?

It does sound like a bad camera. Use the Contact Support link at the bottom here for hardware problems.

Contacted Arlo support and it is determined to be a bad camera. They sent me an RMA and I shipped the bad one back 3 days ago waiting on a replacement. Will update after that. Really good service
