running costs for Arlo system - 3 cameras with Base Station

[enzobertola]

Hi, I am considering to get a complete system with 3 to 4 cameras and one Base Station, and would like to know about costs, after purchase. Understand there are periodical batteries changes and can use free of charge standard use of cloud. 

What about periodic SW updating/upgrading for the system? Are they always included with purchase price or separate cost will be required for this?

Thanks for kind help, Enzo

Hi enzobertola, 

About the firmware updates, there is no additional cost for it once you have bought the Arlo system.   There are procedures you have to follow in order to update the firmware of the Arlo cameras.  Check these articles below:
