Q: QuestionHow long does the battery life last until it needs to be charged again?(3 answers)
A: Answermy arlo cameras have been running for about 1 month and are around 50-70% battery remaining. 2 months would be reasonable before needing a recharge. FYI you need a paid monthly subscription to view any recorded videos. without it you can only play live video w/o saving.Answered by CoolCS
- A: AnswerYou can look at old footage but it only stores for so long unless you pay for it to be uploaded to a cloud storage for longer. You can use the cameras without paying for a subscription or purchase a subscription to have added features.

Q: QuestionDo these cameras work with the screw mounts?(4 answers)
A: AnswerYes. Once you attach the camera to it you can adjust the angle of itAnswered by molinaclanx10
Q: Questiondoes this camera record continuously or only sensor triggered?(3 answers)
A: Answeryou can change the settings to match what you want for duration and trigger for recording. Generally they are set to record or notify when motion triggered. But in order to view recorded videos you must have a monthly paid subscription older models still offer a subscription free plan that saves recorded videos for up to 7 days **** Most notably, not using a subscription will limit you to a total of five security cameras on one account, depending on which type you’re using. This limit applies to the Arlo Wire-Free, Arlo Pro and Pro 2, Arlo Q and Q+, Arlo Go, and Arlo Baby. These devices also have a limit for cloud recording, with recordings up to 1080P being stored on a rolling seven days system (this means they are written over every seven days) **** https://www.androidpolice.com/do-you-need-a-subscription-to-use-an-arlo-security-camera/Answered by CoolCS

Arlo cameras
Great video quality which is what I was looking for. Downside are subscription costs but that’s almost all wireless cameras. Another down side is the fact I need to charge the cameras when they finally die. I don’t like the thought of taking them down to charge leaving my family vulnerable for the time of charging. Opposed to a traditional battery where I could pop it out and pop new one in losing the cameras for a matter of seconds.

Great cameras to add some peace of mind
Great product! Simple to set up and so far so good, the batteries charged after a few hours, install took just a few minutes as it’s three screws and a QR code to scan to add the camera to the app. I like that the app has three sensitivity settings and the picture is very clear, video loads up quickly with great sound as well. Solid cameras to install around your property for the added peace of mind. Would recommend and buy again.

Good camera!
Really good picture quality. Pretty happy with camera except the activity zones set do not seem to work... every tine a car goes by, the camera records even though the activation zone stops before the street. This causes the battery to run down quicker.
