Yes 1) I bought four of the wireless (battery version). So far satisfied with performance (some glitchy stuff, but seems to be settling out) -- but mostly because I intended to connect them to the AC power to keep the batteries charged, relying on the batteries if should the AC go off. To do that, I called your help desk and asked, what is the specs for the barrel connector socket on the back (needed to select an AC to 5V DC wall adapter with the appropriate barrel connector). First they asserted it was impossible (recommended the wired one), then after I pointed out the solar panel has to plug in somewhere, they denied knowing anything about the specifications for the socket on the back. Totally oblivious and unhelpful 2) I got out my calipers and measured and confirmed the barrel connector socket on the back is 3.5 mm x 1.35 mm -- so I bought AC to 5V USB wall adapters and USB to barrel connector (3.5 mm x 1.35mm) cables on amazon and they're doing a fine job keeping the batteries charged up.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes 1) I bought four of the wireless (battery version).

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.That is what we did we brought the Ring battery spotlight security camera so if we want we can move it, we brought a AC adapter for it an the battery is always fully charged around 11pm the battery never goes down past 96% that is with on avg 35-50 motions a day an live view check about 20-25 times a day an we use the lights on it too works great, i would think the solar panel would do a good job too.
I would recommend:

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Hello Fishhawk, Thanks for writing me. Due to our Spotlight Cam Wire-free being Battery powered, you are unable to power it up by using a 120ac outlet. If you have any more questions please feel free to contact me directly at Kaitlyn.rosenthal@ring.com. Thanks, Kaitlyn R., Neighbor Satisfaction Specialist Kaitlyn.rosenthal@ring.com
