A:AnswerI connected mine to the charger cable and extension cord during my install. If my power goes out the camera will still work. I have a battery backup on modem and router
A:AnswerIt does color and night mode which is B&W, but you can control of you want night mode on automaticly, all the time, or off completely. Resolution is good and ot picks up sound crazy good.
A:AnswerThis is not yet supported. I have a Google TV with Chromecast and can stream the previous gen Hello Doorbell, but not the new Nest “battery” cameras. Based on a recent article I read, Google/Nest might be working on adding these features - no specifics or release dates confirmed.
A:AnswerAs of right now, there are only two lengths of waterproof cables. I would imagine amazon and other 3rd parties will have some options available but who knows if they will work consistently or safely.
A:AnswerYour usage scenario requires it to be connected to some kind of local WiFi, whether that's a home WiFi or a hotspot that remains in the vicinity of the camera. The camera itself cannot send the video nor alerts via cellular data.
A:AnswerNo. But with the Home app, you can manually turn your camera on or off anytime so that you’re always in control of when it streams and records video. Please see this link for more details: https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/9247651
Our team is working on bringing full functionality to the Google Home app so you can have full control in the Home app.
A:AnswerNo. While Alexa supports Smart Home integration with Nest cameras and Nest thermostats, this feature is not currently supported on the new Nest Cam (battery) or the Nest Doorbell (battery). Currently, these cameras work with the Google Assistant.

A:AnswerHi there, Laurie. Thanks for your question. The Nest Cam (battery) uses a rechargeable lithium-ion (Li-ion) battery. It comes with a built-in 6 Ah (Ampere-hour) Li-ion battery, which is not user-replaceable. If you have more questions and other concerns, we recommend reaching out to our dedicated team of specialists on the Google Help Center here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp
