    I don’t think these help all that much at keeping the ring battery charged. It is very easy to install.

      Hi Hill.

      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 the device is not performing as expected. There are some troubleshooting steps that you can take to ensure that you have your Ring Solar Panel 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,
      Miyuki from Ring. Ring

      Hi LuisaW.

      It sounds like the Ring Solar Panel was not what you expected. We wanted to share with you some of the key features that the device offers. The latest Solar Panel with upgraded solar technology keeps your camera charged longer with up to 60% faster charging than the previous generation. You can connect it to any Ring USB-C Security Camera with the built-in USB-C connector or barrel plug camera with the included USB-C to barrel plug adapter. And you can keep your setup tidy with built-in cable management.

    It's wonderful. Install it In the evening when the sun was going down so I could see how good it is for a full day charge. Where I installed it it gets sun about 6 hrs a day. Battery was at 5% by the end of the day it was 95%. Order another great product so far Just have to see how long it lasts
