Both panels are working as expected, especially considering I installed them just before the first winter frost/snow/freeze. One took a couple of weeks to begin powering the camera, but that was also due to trees obscuring the panel with strong winds. If the panel is squarely facing south and nothing in the line of sight, as are my other two panels, there is a 100% charge regularly. Better performance when installed where there is direct access to sunlight.

After having just the cameras for close to a year. I got tired of having to change the batteries every 2-4 weeks. Since getting the solar panels i havent had to change the batteries yet in 2 months. Must have in my opinion

Easy installation works with direct sunlight, charged my camera to 100% with regular cord and hooked up the solar and its stays at 100%

Solar panels for your Arlo pretty much are a must if you're going to put them high up and in a spot that's hard to replace the battery with. I definitely would recommend it as it's essential to getting the most out of an Arlo. Additionally the amount of power you get out of it is honestly, shocking, given how small the solar panel is. Definitely impressed.

So far the Pro 4 cameras and solar panels are working fine. I am glad that there is a long charging cord for the solar panel to optimize placement in direct sunlight. The Arlo connection to my iPhone 12 Pro max is running smoothly. There is a good sense of security when combined with my dedicated ADT home security system and a large Google WiFi mesh network. This set gives me the versatility to change cameras later down the road without the major changes involved with replacement of hardwired systems.

I bought two Arlo pro 4 cameras and both were recording activity pretty heavy. One camera would not last a week without it needing to be recharged and it became frustrating. I bought the solar panels and did not change a thing as far as settings were concerned. Now both cameras are holding at 100 percent consistently. I would definitely recommend these panels. Remember to fully charge cameras before you use the panels and you will be fine.

We purchases Arlo cameras and flood light and were climbing up a ladder to change out and recharge batteries. When it started getting cold, my husband had enough of the up and down. We bought this solar panel for our flood light and had it installed a month ago. Haven't had to pull out the ladder not once since the installation. Why didn't we do this sooner! I highly recommend this panel for all of Arlo's wireless outdoor equipment.

This solar panel charger has been a great addition to my camera. Makes it so I don't have to charge my camera. Just make sure the sun lights hits the panel, I did not at first.
