Great clarity wide angle vent lens was easy to install makes a big difference in my security. I feel safer that I can see my entire property coming and going. I like the alert. It gives me on my phone. I think it’s a great product.

This works so well. I havent had to charge my camera since I bought this. 8 ft cord so that you can place this anywhere to catch the sun. I will definitely be buying again for my other cameras.

Keeps the cameras alive a bit longer. Provides a trickle charge but it’s better than having to take the cameras down and charging them often.

I bought this as a Christmas gift for my mother since she uses Arlo Cameras. Unfortunatly it did not fit the modles she currently had, as they accepted different cords than the solar charger. But after getting the correct camera model, this solar charger has worked great, or so I have been told!
