Does Netgear sell a DC power supply for the Arlo Pro Base Station?
I bought a VMS4430 | Arlo Pro Wire-Free camera system to install into a yacht. I need to power the Arlo Pro Base Station using 12V.
If not, what are the power specifications for the Arlo Pro Base Station? Input voltage, wattage, plug dimensions and plug tip polarity, etc?
Knowing the required input power would allow me to use a DC-DC power supply rather than a 12V AC inverter for the stock 120V AC power adapter.
The VMC4030 cameras ship with a micro USB power cable that can be combined with a 12V USB power cigarette plug adapter.

The Pro base uses an AC to DC wall wart that is rated at 12DC @ 1.5a , center Positive with coaxial plug the looks to be a 5 or 5.5mm by 2.1mm
( power supply same as the older Arlo base )... so you could direct wire using same with an inline proper rated fuse
As to the USB adapter, it has a dual voltage output... 5v and 9v ( the 9V is needed to charge the packs fully to 8,4v ) ...So it's not just a standard USB adapter.... Not sure how the PRO decides which voltage to use... may access another pin in cable

Like you I am after a 12volt solution to run the Arlo base station in my campervan that already has wifi. I am considering the Cellink-B dashcam battery pack that recharges when the van is running by the cigarette lighter. As you mentioned the Arlo needs 1.5amps, do I simply add a 1.5A fuse between the Cellink and the Arlo? Any ideas welcome, thanks Ged

Hi Gedhols, Yes, simply put a 1.5A fuse inline. I am using a universal type 12V cigarette socket power supply.
Hope that helps, Marty
