I would recommend this to a friendNot charging correctly
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sad to say it’s not charging like it’s supposed to. I have the exact panel 50 feet away set in the same position with the sun on another cam, and it does fine with one battery. I ended up purchasing a second battery for the cam, but doesn’t charge up. I even turned the cam off from videoing in hope it would charge up. But nothing. I restarted and cam cleaned the panel, but it seems to barely be charging. I feel it’s not putting out the 4watts like it states in the specifications. I might try contacting the manufacturer or Best Buy on getting another panel.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from Ring
Posted .Hi Jayamd.
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 are experiencing issues with the device in regards to battery life. The Ring Solar Panel is designed to provide a trickle charge to the Ring camera to extend the amount of time between charging cycles. There are some troubleshooting steps that you can take to ensure that you have your device set up for optimal performance. Be sure to fully charge your Ring Quick Release Battery Pack prior to connecting the Ring Solar Panel to the camera.
While batteries in Ring devices can go months between recharges with normal use, this is dependent on a number of factors in your home's environment, such as the local weather and the number of activities captured. The more events captured by your Ring camera, the more your battery is used to power the live HD video stream to your device. Even if you do not answer the call, video is still sent from your Ring product to the Ring servers. In addition, the battery is also drained each time you use the live view to look or speak through your camera.
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,
Melissa from Ring.
