Nothing Short of AMAZING!
||Posted .Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.These Arlo Solar Panels are nothing short of AMAZING!!! They’re SUPER easy to install, and my batteries have remained at 100% since these panels have been installed! These are a “must have” for anyone who gets plenty of sunlight in the areas where the cameras are installed!

Pays for itself in time
||Posted .Owned for 3 months when reviewed.I love this panel. I haven’t had to replace the battery yet of my outdoor cameras. They go down to about 95% charged and go back up to 100% during day. Replaced the indoor batteries twice already

Excellent Product
||Posted .Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.I had my Arlo Pro 4 cameras about 2 weeks and decided to purchase these as charging 3 cameras would be a pain. I read reviews on these and some said don't work or must be fully charged to work partially. With 3 cameras facing different angles on my home was going to be a challenge facing the sun as my home runs north west to south east. I am totally impressed with these Arlo solar panels after a month. I tried mounting them south east and west and north west. I must have done something right because they charged my cameras excellent. Even on cloudy days the ultra violent rays come through and charged the cameras. If your having a problem charging with these you did something wrong. They will even take my cameras from 50% to full charge in a few days. I am extremely happy and highly recommend these solar panels.

Don’t buy it’s a waste
||Posted .Owned for 1 month when reviewed.I Purchased this for my Ultra 2. Initially bought 3 panels for 3 cameras but I returned two of them. Installation is a breeze and connectivity is simple as charging the camera. I followed all recommendations to make this perform at the optimal operation. As a background I live in Phoenix, Az that it is sunny most of the time. I installed this with my camera at 100% fully charged and face the panel where it would get all day sun exposure with its positioning. It worked fine for a week. After the week my camera percentage dropped to 35% after moderate use. It was not charging. In fact my camera would die and it would take 2 days to give it a little juice to start functioning again. My camera stays at 15-25% battery life with the “it’s charging Indicator.” This is the reason I returned the other panels. If you provide everything the solar panel needs to perform at its best and it performs poorly I can’t recommend it. On the side note with the Ultra 2 it overheats easily and says it needs to cool down. You would think that they would have it in mind when developing this camera to withstand all type of climates. I bought 4 of the Arlo Ultra 2 cameras. The quality is very good but if it’s not working 1/2 the time is it worth it?

Panels work great!
||Posted .Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.I have 6 of these panels now to keep the cameras charged. The cameras are on schedule for surveillance from dusk to dawn. The panels work great keeping all batteries at 100%. Very happy I’m not up on a ladder swapping batteries every 5-6 months.

Works Better than Expected
||Posted .Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This is great with the Arlo camera! There are other reviews that say it doesn't charge the camera and only maintains the battery life, so I wasn't expecting a lot from them. I had two solar panels installed with the cameras a few days ago. At the time one of my cameras was at 50% battery. The other was already at 100%. Now they are both at 100%. It did take a few days to get the one to 100%, but it eventually did. The solar panel is on a very sunny side of my house and there isn't a lot of activity there, so the camera doesn't use a lot of battery. But it's nice to know that the battery will get charged by the solar panel.

Q: QuestionDoes this need direct sunlight (on roof) or just getting any daylight will give it juice?
Asked by earlyriser93.
- A:Answer The amount of energy that the Arlo Solar Panel can produce depends on several factors: average sun exposure, weather conditions, tilt angle, and dust or debris. For more information on positioning the Arlo Solar Panel Charger, check out: http://bit.ly/30Rnknw ^KN

Q: QuestionWill this charge Arlo- Pro 4 with the magnetic attachment?
Asked by John.
- A:Answer Yes I have the Arlo4 cameras, the magnetic attachment on the solar panel is smaller but it still fits fine
Answered by JBLflip5
Q: QuestionHow long does it take to charge
Asked by Anonymous.
- A:Answer The solar charger will charge the battery but it is only a trickle charge. The time to charge the battery depends on how much sunlight the panel gets and how much charge is in the battery. I charged my battery to 100% before I attached the solar panel and my solar panel only gets full after noon sun. My battery power never goes below 100 %. I have 2 solar panels and 2 cameras and the camera always shows 100%. My advice is to charge your battery first and keep it fully charged with a solar panel and you will never have a problem.
