      Hi GeorgiannH.

      Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. We understand the importance of having a solid charge on your Ring camera so that you are able to have a longer time between charge cycles. Having a solid connection ensures you do not miss any activity around your home. We are here to provide you with some information to resolve the issue you mentioned in your review.

      It sounds like you have concerns regarding the solar panel’s charging performance. There are some tips that you can follow to ensure that your Ring Solar Panel is set up for optimal performance. The device's battery level may vary based on the amount of direct sunlight the solar panel receives. It is important to ensure that your Ring Solar Panel is installed correctly and that it is receiving enough direct sunlight to operate as intended. For best performance, Ring recommends at least two to three hours of direct sunlight for the Ring Solar Panel. With the recommended amount of direct sunlight, the device will remain continuously charged under most conditions.

      Make sure there are no obstructions or objects that could cast a shadow on your solar panel, such as an extended roof, tree, or bush. Seasonality and how far north (or south) you live can affect the strength of the sun. If you live in the Northern Hemisphere, install your solar panel facing south. If you live in the southern hemisphere, install it facing north. Ring recommends using the adjustable arm to angle the panel at about 45 degrees toward the sky to get the most sunlight possible.

      If any additional information is needed regarding your Ring Solar Panel, please reach out to our community. Ring Community is our first peer-to-peer community forum, giving our customers the ability to help one another and share their feedback and experiences directly with Ring.

      Thank you,

    The problem with this solar panel, is it is NOT compatible with all my external Ring cameras, so as soon as my Ring cameras no longer worked after a # of months (this has happened to a couple of my cameras already, disappointed), I had to buy a different solar panel. They should make these solar panels to be universal and work with ALL Ring cameras, which to me is a flaw in the item itself, that's my opinion. Another issue I found is that the solar panel doesn't pick up enough sunlight. I believe these solar panels should be improved.

    I bought the panel so I wouldn’t have to remove and charge the battery every couple of months. So awesome. Even during power failure I still had video because my network is on a ups. But my ring flood light is ac hardwired and was down. So thankful they have the solar charge feature

    Exactly what I was looking. I had purchased a ring camera that only had battery option. I didn't want to have to deal with replacing batteries, this recharges the battery quickly enough to not have to replace it. So far so good!
