- A: AnswerBattery life will depend on factors including activity, temperature, and camera settings that you select. You can extend the battery life of your camera by adjusting video quality, length of video clips, time between recorded events, and using activity zones to monitor specific areas. Here are some typical scenarios: Busy: About 1.5 months battery life (about 20 - 25 recorded events per day) Typical: About 3 months battery life (about 9 - 12 recorded events per day) Quiet: About 7 months battery life (about 2 - 4 recorded events per day) Also, Nest Cam only takes around 4-5 hours to fully charge the battery.

Q: QuestionCan the new nest battery camera be plugged in allowing 24/7 coverage(3 answers)
A: AnswerYes, when plugged in, it will record 24/7. WARNING -- this camera can not be viewed in the old Nest app, only in the Home app. ALSO, since this camera is not being "added" to the Nest "environment", it can not be viewed with a browser!Answered by RobRud

Answered by Vinny
Q: QuestionCan I install this camera outside, not under a cover?(5 answers)
A: AnswerWith an IP54 rating. It probably would be good to use some sort of covering to keep direct rain/snow from hitting it directly. IP68 and higher is what you want for full wet contact and shallow submersion in water. This camera is not completely sealed against water and dust.Answered by JinOH
- A: AnswerGoogle sells longer power cords for this camera separately. They are available in ~15feet & ~30feet. The prices are $34.99 & $39.99. You can also use an extension cord if you need more length.
Answered by Moes
- A: AnswerThey claim that under normal use the battery should last about a month. Charging from zero to full should take about 5 hours. And YES, the battery 'meter' is very large and clearly seen in the Google Home App.

Good camera. Google Home app is getting better.
I had two of these already, and I bought one for my sister and brother-in-law for Christmas because they wanted a camera. I also bought the long power cord for them in case they wanted to wire it. They have since let me know a few times they really like having the camera. As for me, I like how easy they are to install, since they're wireless. I even have one that is sitting in the yard on a metal bird feeder pole pointing toward the house. The magnetic base sticks to the pole, and there's no wiring needed. It's not far from the room where my wireless router is, so it connects fine. After I bought the long wire for my sister's camera, I got one for myself, and attached that to the wireless camera on my house so I don't have to worry about charging it and could see continuous past video like I can on my doorbell and on a wired Nest camera I have. But I haven't figured out yet why I still am only seeing even recordings where the camera captures an event, like a person or animal. I will need to contact Google support on that. One issue I have had, and have seen others report in reviews, is getting the camera to charge. I think if it completely drains, it takes a while for charging to start. You plug it in, and nothing happens. I've cleaned the contacts to make sure there was a good connection with the pins in the plug and the camera. I think you just have to wait if it's drained. It eventually starts charging. The long cord to make it a wired camera is the same as the charging cord. Just really long. I got the 10 meter one. The Google Home app is okay. The Nest app for my doorbell and wired camera is better. I think they are slowly improving the Home app, which is where I see my battery powered cameras. They do not appear in the Nest App.

Wire Free Camera for Google is a Hit!
I have always been interested in buying a Google Outdoor Camera but I was more interested in a battery powered, wire free approach and Google didn’t offer that. Well, finally Google has released their “Google - Nest Camera Battery” and for me it is a hit! UNBOXING & INSTALL: - Taking the Camera out you realize how great of a job Google did making this. It’s modern, sleek, and nothing about it feels cheap. - It’s size is a little bigger than a baseball, so not too small but not overly large either. - Installation was super easy on this! The main thing is that this required the “Google Home” app to set up, and the app does a pretty great job helping you step by step on setting this up. - I personally set this up for outdoor use and did not hard wire it as I want to use the battery. And mounting this outside was very easy. You just need to drill two screws into the wall you were mounting it too, connect the base, and the rest is just magnets! So you can easily adjust the camera or take it off when you need to recharge it or use it somewhere else. PROS: - I know I said this, but I do really like the look of this camera. Especially since it is outside, its just nice that it isn’t an eye sore. - The picture quality really is great on this camera! Yes it isn’t perfect super high end clarity but that is the trade off for a battery operated model. But regardless I was really impressed with the video quality! You can zoom in, it has a really nice viewing angle so you can see a lot of area, and overall works exactly how I need it to. - The smart features in this are no joke. It has facial recognition for people that come around a lot, can detect cars, animals, packages, or just any motion in general. It does a really good job telling you what is happening based on what it sees. - There is no base required, its all wireless if you want it to be! For me I really like the clutter free aspect of it since some outdoor cameras require a separate indoor base to connect to. - Something I like about the magnetic base / battery is that you can easily grab the camera and move it if you want to. If you want to move the camera from your yard to your dog’s kennel or your kids playroom you can easily do that! Just nice to be able to quickly swap it around if you need to keep an eye on something that you usually don’t. CONS: - As of the time of this review, the Google Nest Camera Battery does not work with the “Nest” app. I really like the Nest app as it is clean and easy to use, and its disappointing I can’t have this camera hooked up to the Nest app. - That being said, I don’t love the Google Home app. Yes it has a lot of nice perks, but I think for the camera integration I want something more focused on the cameras as soon as I open the app, with more picture settings, and easier history viewing. But those can all be fixed with time. - The Camera does not come with an “indoor” table top mount. That is an optional accessory you buy on the side, and it just would have been nice to come with it. BOTTOM LINE: - Google finally made a well priced battery operated indoor/outdoor camera and they did it right! The camera looks high quality, the picture is great, it has a lot or smart features, works well with your existing Google Smart Home, and helps add an additional level of security to your home. I’d highly recommend the purchase because I don’t think you will be disappointed!

As expected
I purchased this nest camera battery to replace another battery brand camera on the side of my house. I went into this knowing the new nest cam wouldn’t work with the Nest app and would have to use Google Home app to view it but having all cameras under one app is the end goal for myself. The camera itself so far seems to be great. I’m already subscribed to the nest subscription so it’s great not needing onboard storage and everything is uploaded to the cloud. My nest cam is roughly 9’ above ground whereas google recommends approx 6.5’ but it’s had no issues picking up people in the zone I’ve created. So far the battery has dropped 3% in just 24 hours but I blame the excessive motion it picked up yesterday. I found adding a zone for alerts only and setting the motion sensitivity to medium works best. I’m also using full resolution video so that will also deplete battery faster. I can see Google claims of battery life being accurate - pretty standard amongst other battery operated cameras, possibly a bit worse but this camera has much more onboard intelligence whereas my legacy nest cameras use the cloud for their processing. The big winner here will be when Google Nest releases their solar panel so it doesn’t need to be recharged every couple of months. The deduction of the star is simply due to Google’s inability to create at least one app that does everything. The Google Home app allows you to scrub events (battery) in the app or scrub video 24/7 if your battery cam is connected to a power source. Have an existing Nest doorbell or other older Nest cameras? Can’t scrub video - you’ll need to go back to the Nest app to do this on your other cameras where you’ll not find your new Nest Cam battery because it’s only in the home app! I’m sure (not really) google will introduce all these functions into the Home app, but why not now? Makes zero sense to me. Here are photos comparing the two cameras. The Nest cam has the much larger FOV.
