So I went a head and bought the 4 camera system at BB.  I have a few questios before opening it up and installing it.

 

1) the maximum recording time is 2 minutes when motion is trigger.  So what if motion keeps on going does the camera either keep on recording or stops at 2 minutes and starts recording again.  There are a lot of things that could happen for more than 2 minutes.

 

2)Could I schedule the different cameras to record at different times.  I have no need for them to record when I'm at home. 

 

3)I know these are built for exterior use, but could I truly put one outdoors without any cover around them.?

 

4)Where could I buy cheaper batteries so I could change them when the batteries stop working.

supaflyz,

 

1. If motion continues after the maximum recording time the camera will start another recording and so on until the motion ends. Resulting in multiple clips of the maximum recording time until there is no more motion.

 

2. Yes, you can schedule different cameras to record at different times using the Schedule feature: How do I configure and use the Schedule option?

 

3. Arlo Wire-Free cameras are weather proof and can be used both indoor and outdoor: Are Arlo cameras weatherproof?

 

4. Battery prices vary depending on region and retailer. You can find many discussions on this topic in the Buying Options & Tips board. For more information on NETGEAR battery recommendations, take a look here: Remember these golden rules for your Arlo camera batteries
