||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am so very happy the Geek Squad installer-tech suggested that I purchase this Solar Panel for my Ring Security camera! I now do not have to climb the ladder to get the cameras to charge them!
I would recommend this to a friendGreat product
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These solar panels work great keeping our cameras charged. I do make sure they get good sunlight - if you live in an area with lower sun, you may still need to charge batteries, but if the panel gets good sun most days, you shouldn't need to charge the batteries.

I would recommend this to a friendWell worth it
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.As long as you install in an area with enough sunlight, it'll keep your camera fully charged with no issue! I would recommend an extension so you have more options for placement.
I would recommend this to a friendGreat purchase
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We have several of these solar panels since we have a wrap around porch and they work great! I just bought a ring camera for my elderly mother’s front porch in case she falls outside. This way I’ll get a motion alert and I can still talk to her until help arrives. With this solar panel it will be less hassle of keeping the battery charged. We haven’t had any issues with these same solar panels. Great product!
I would recommend this to a friendSolar Panel power cord:
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The item under review is a solar panel. This solar panel has been very helpful in recharging the camera, the Sun has moved out of range for recharge during this time of year, but still provides a little more time between battery exchanges. I do wish that the cord was longer for better placement.

Posted .Hi CraigG.
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. We understand the importance of having a solid charge on your Ring camera so that you are able to have a longer time between charge cycles. Having a solid connection ensures you do not miss any activity around your home. We are here to provide you with some information to resolve the issue you mentioned in your review.
It sounds like the device is not performing as expected. There are some troubleshooting steps that you can take to ensure that you have your Ring Solar Panel set up for optimal performance. The device's battery level may vary based on the amount of direct sunlight the solar panel receives. It is important to ensure that your Ring Solar Panel is installed correctly and that it is receiving enough direct sunlight to operate as intended. For best performance, Ring recommends at least two to three hours of direct sunlight for the Ring Solar Panel. With the recommended amount of direct sunlight, the device will remain continuously charged under most conditions.
Make sure there are no obstructions or objects that could cast a shadow on your solar panel, such as an extended roof, tree, or bush. Seasonality and how far north (or south) you live can affect the strength of the sun. If you live in the Northern Hemisphere, install your solar panel facing south. If you live in the southern hemisphere, install it facing north. Ring recommends using the adjustable arm to angle the panel at about 45 degrees toward the sky to get the most sunlight possible.
If any additional information is needed regarding your Ring Solar Panel, please reach out to our community. Ring Community is our first peer-to-peer community forum, giving our customers the ability to help one another and share their feedback and experiences directly with Ring.
Thank you,
Miyuki from Ring.
Amazing!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I recently purchased the 4 W solar panel for my Ring camera and I am extremely satisfied with my purchase. The installation process was a breeze and the solar panel has been extremely reliable in powering my Ring camera. I love that I no longer have to worry about constantly recharging the battery or running out of power during extended periods of use. The added benefit of being eco-friendly is also a huge plus for me. Overall, I highly recommend the 4 W solar panel for anyone looking to power their Ring camera for an extended period of time without the hassle of constantly recharging the battery.

||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Extremely useful especially if, like me, your camera is not in an easily accessible location. The installation is quick and easy, plus the available extended wiring helps if your panel needs to be a bit further from your camera. We've had extremely strong winds over the past month and the panel survived it - I was surprised given how exposed it is to the elements
I would recommend this to a friendMust have accessory
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Must have accessory for high mounted lights or cameras. This keeps a charge on your batteries and limits the need to change/charge batteries in high places.
