    Arlo Outdoor Floodlight Camera

    Overall quality of the product is good. However, this device is not particularly friendly to the traditional computer users, who may encounter a variety of unexpected, unpleasant and costly issues. The Arlo website attempts to address certain issues, but certain answers I find are unsatisfactory. Most of the time, when certain issues arose, I had to resolve them by myself and live with them whether or not I like them. I've used it for about a month, and I am now accustomed to it. In addition, it is hard (if not impossible) to find certain accessories that may be desirable or necessary.

    I installed this myself, and stripped the provided round head mounting screws doing so. Not a probalem as I have more in my toolkit, but they were not solid enough. The charger should have been the same as the other cameras that I installled at the same time, Pro 4s and Ultra 2s, but isn't of course. Finally that 25ft cable that I had to buy, not easy to drill a hole to feed that magnetic coupler through , even a wooden deck. I needed longer, and also now need much shorter ones for the other cameras. Once installed it seems to work well, only time will really tell, but happy that it's there!

    I purchased this to keep an eye on a parking area that’s not Visible from my house… it follows the animal or person and automatically zooms in. The zones took some time to get setup just right. And the light is nice and bright!

    The Arlo floodlight has been working great for us. It has crystal clear video with a wide viewing angle. We enjoy being able to use the 2way audio to speak with our dogs while we are gone and the notification system is amazingly fast when detecting an object.

    Good picture and floodlight, but. The camera requires a 2.4 ghz WiFi and will not connect to a 5.0. I have an Orbi router that has a meshed 2.4 and 5.0. I tried for hours trying to change settings and it still would not connect. Because 2.4 ghz is good for longer distances and 5.0 for shorter I took the camera 300 feet from the router and tried connecting. It worked! Now it’s connected it remains on the WiFi without any problems. You would think Arlo tech support would know to try this solution, but they didn’t. They simply said it won’t work. I have to play with the controls more but I haven’t discovered how to adjust the alert sensitivity yet.

    The addition of the floodlight camera to our system was a no-brainer. It lights up our alley driveway very nicely considering it runs off of battery. Definitely recommend if you have an existing Arlo system.

    The Arlo floodlight camera is exactly what i was looking for. Having the ability to turn on the floodlight with my phone or the motion activation is great. I recommend using the Arlo power cord to get the brighter light.

    We have owned ours for a year and I am glad we waited so as to give an honest and accurate account of our experience. At first we loved our flashlight, the images were clear and crisp and the battery lasted about 5 months. Now, our battery lasts 1-2 months with no difference in foot traffic. Apparently, the 6 months is meant for 5 movements a day which is unrealistic for normal activity- home residents, delivery persons, animals… Also, the camera misses movement that is right in front of it so you might lose capturing a significant event. Like a break in. To make matters worse, we thought it would sustain Los Angeles rain which is only a handful of days in a year. NOPE. This camera was so full of rain after just 2 days of spotty rain. Neither the camera nor battery are working. Not worth it! Find something else.

    This is our newest addition & our 5th Arlo camera. All are working after several years of operation in all kinds of weather. This one was placed behind our house in a dark area and so far (luckily) we have only picked up pics of critters, no people. Keep safe & enjoy your life!

    I love that I can adjust the sensitivity of motion sensor. This camera has clear video and audio works great. When my husband is outside I like to mess with him on the 2 way audio. Keeps us secure and it’s fun. Dual purpose. Lol.

    Works like a charm, far more responsive than my other Arlo cameras and the light is exceptionally bright. My only concern is it catches "everything" but that is not bad and you can reduce the sensitivity.
