Now I don't have to worry about climbing ladder to charge batteries!! Work great. They were professionally installed to get the most available year round sun.

Works well with our Arlo cameras. You just have to make sure it is positioned to get the sunlight. I've only had a few cases where we've had to replace the battery versus the solar panel charging it - and that's when we've had a long stretch of cloudy days during the winter when days are shorter.

Quality product. Just didn’t work good for where are cameras are placed. They need to get full sun to properly work and the areas were to shady to use them.

Worts great and nice you don't need to always have to take the cameras down to charge. Only unfortunate thing is in the winter there isn't enough sunlight to charge the cameras.

We have had this solar panel for a couple weeks now, 100% on our battery after a few days. So far working great!

Overall theyre not bad. They are a little difficult to position since the base has a screw lock mechanism, and will rotate with the panels base mechanism.
After ser up, they pretty much keep the battery charged throughout the day.
Note. Battery life and charge does vary on settings and daylight. Doesnt necessarily need direct sunlight to charge.

This thing is a great for your outdoor cameras. We had to add a couple cameras outside due to issues in the neighborhood. I put these up with them and have never had an issue with needing to charge the batteries. I prefer using OEM pars and I don’t regret the extra cost on these. The cameras have never missed anything due to a dead battery.

Panels do not prevent the battery from completely discharging. In my install, the panels are like a trickle charger that extends the time between complete battery re-charging. With that in mind, they work well. However, I think they should be capable of keeping the cameras operating. Hardwire if you don't want to replace the battery in the camera.
