if i have my cameras set to all motion OFF and therefore the only time i can view them is via web browser or app, does this still cause the batteries to drain?
im not really using the cameras now. I just wanted to test them out. I still have the base station and everything connected to the network. If the batteries are still draining because they are in the cameras, i would like to know so i can take them out.
thanks.

They are still on so there has to be some draw but it would be so small that the batteries should last at least a year, depending on how much live viewing you do. If you did none, they should last a VERY long time.

As mentioned, in sleep mode power usage is almost nill...
I had two cameras that were use very little except for detection of motion ( no motion in those rooms ) and maybe 2 mins per week...
OEM batteries lasted almost 7 months

"is out side set all time movement"
Does this mean your recording all the time?
