Q: QuestionI'm looking for install several cameras on our golf course facilities. Do you have any commercial cameras available ? We also need to be able to go back in time and print images as needed. Also are all the cameras used batteries ? and a Hub ? Thanks

Asked 4 years ago by Victor.

• A:Answer Although not a commercial solution, the Arlo solution might meet your needs. You’ll have to figure out how big of an area you’ll need to cover and if the number will meet your needs. You can use their cloud based storage or a Hub solution to store video content but Arlos typically are set up with triggers - motion triggers to store content. All come with rechargeable batteries that look to last 3-6 months depending on usage.

Q: QuestionHow does the camera stay attached to the house?

Asked 4 years ago by bigdaddy.

• A:Answer There's an attachment on the back that screws in to the wall or whatever you're mounting it to. Once this is screwed in, the mounting hardware on the camera clicks into place securing it like a twist lock. Then there's a tension screw that can be tightened down. Trust me, it won't be able to be pulled down once it's in place.

Q: QuestionI have 2 rental properties, can I split up this 3-pack and put 2 cameras at one property and one at another, or do they all have to be linked to the same wireless router to work?

Asked 4 years ago by CTmn.

• A:Answer I didn't install the cameras yet but I would assume you can do that because the Arlo pro 4 camers don't come with a base station that they all connect too, not 100% on this
