“Why does the battery die fast? I only had my ring spot light for 7 day and I’m already had to charge the battery 4 times?”

• Mine only lasts 1-2 weeks on my inside cam. Very disappointing when Ring says 6-12 months! Can’t really tighten the zones much as it covers a 15 ft area. Plus what good is it if you can’t capture all the motion?

• I have the same problem. I have the settings set to the smallest area and still has to be replaced every four weeks at the most.

• Yes. Mine picks up everything even with the parameters very tight - causing the battery to run out fast.

• You may need to adjust your notification sensitivity. If it is high and your close to a road it will continously trigger and run the battery dead. My battery lasts about 2 months per charge depending on how much traffic I have in front of my house

• I have had my spotlight for quite some time now and the battery lasts at least a week or more. Have you checked your settings? Do you leave the light on all the time or just when there is motion? Leaving the light on or setting sensitivity too high can drain the battery If not, then you either have a defective battery or unit. I would contact customer service

• The more activity the more the battery life is used. I would go Solar and you never have to charge the battery.
