A:AnswerThe plug-in does not include batteries. You can buy batteries and you only need 1 battery but there’s space for 2. It doesn’t appear that you can enable the camera to run off it in a backup scenario. So it may be a waste of $35.
A:AnswerHi Parrot1.
Thank you for taking the time to reach out to us with your question. The Ring Spotlight Cam Plus was designed with customizable light and motion settings to be adjusted according to your needs. By default, the spotlight on the Ring Spotlight Cam Plus will only come on when it detects motion at night. The Light Settings tab on the device's page in the Ring app lets you control when your spotlight comes on. As long as the Motion Detection toggle is turned on, the camera will continue to record when motion is detected, even if the lights are turned off.

A:AnswerHi goose.
Thank you for your question! The newer Ring camera's that can be powered with a plug-in adapter are all designed with a USB-C port. While you have these dual power devices in battery mode they will use the battery inside the device to stay powered. While in plug-in or wired mode the device with stay powered on AC power with fully feature use. If power goes out your device will start to use battery power, but will still have full features enabled, this will cause the battery to drain faster then keeping the device in battery mode.

Good question. Yes, the Ring Spotlight Cam Plus is on a ball joint, so you can adjust it to face in the direction you want it to. Your camera can be mounted on an outdoor wall, eave, or overhang. As a reminder, when installing, please do not remove the rubber seal from the base, as this could cause potential water damage.
