      Hi Snookered, thanks for posting a review on Nest Cam (battery), and we’re sorry to hear about your poor experience with its connectivity despite having a strong signal.

      Sometimes, a range issue or wireless interference can cause your Nest camera to disconnect from your Wi-Fi. Try moving your camera a bit closer to your router. Sometimes it may pass the connection test during setup, but will struggle to stay connected if it’s just a bit too far away. You may also check for objects such as mirrors and refrigerators between the camera and your router as these items could block the connection. For more help, read Troubleshooting wireless interference here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/9276282

      If the connectivity issue persists, we’d like to check whether this is caused by the camera or other environmental factors. Feel free to find us anytime here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest

    As loyal google/nest user I gave these a try .. what a disappointment, what was google thinking? Battery is inadequate and lasts less than 2 weeks, even if pointed at a low traffic area. Why is the power wire facing towards the front? Google please design an updated and improved IQ cam to make up for this disaster. Returning.

      Hi LeMode, thanks for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that Nest Cam (Battery) didn’t eet your needts.

      Battery life will depend on factors including activity, temperature, and camera settings that you select. You can extend the battery life of your camera by adjusting video quality, length of video clips, time between recorded events, and using activity zones to monitor specific areas. Here are some typical scenarios:
      - Busy - About 1.5 months battery life (about 20 - 25 recorded events per day)
      - Typical - About 3 months battery life (about 9 - 12 recorded events per day)
      - Quiet - About 7 months battery life (about 2 - 4 recorded events per day)

      Your feedback is important to us as we are always working to improve our products and services. We’re hoping that you will continue using your Nest Cam (Battery). If you need assistance, feel free to contact our support team here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest
