    Actual battery life less than a month

    The battery life went down 5% a day, giving me an estimated 20 days of use and it required a full day to recharge. Makes this camera virtually useless for what it was intended to be. I know they say to adjust the motion settings to save on the battery but my truck is parked on a neighborhood street and the purpose of the camera was to monitor my truck. It naturally was going to pick up movement on the street in front of my house, but that’s what I wanted it to do. It’s not a Busy city street, it’s a neighborhood street. If you’re looking to cover an area that has little activity and no power source this may be an option but I can’t see under any circumstances where the battery would last the advertised up to six months.I gave it 2 stars because it did pick up the motion from my second story mounted position I can’t go higher as the wireless feature is the primary function and it doesn’t do that very well at all.

      Hi Pdmark.

      Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. We understand how important it is to have your Ring Stick Up Cam capture all the correct motion events. The Ring Stick Up Cam was designed to capture motions based on your specifications to help keep your home secure. 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 in regards to motion detection. We recommend a maximum mounting height of 9 feet from the ground for optimal motion detection. It is important to ensure that you have the proper motion settings in place for your environment. This camera uses adjustable motion detection and runs on passive infrared sensors. The system identifies visitors via a moving heat signature and sends a notification to your smart device when one is detected. You can adjust three preset motion zones and their distances under the "Motion Settings" tab on the device'.

      Accuracy in motion detection can also be improved by enabling the "Smart Alerts" feature for people only in your Ring app. To enable "Smart Alerts", please follow these steps:
      Tap the menu (≡) on the top left.
      Tap "Devices."
      Tap the device that you want to adjust.
      Tap "Motion Settings."
      Tap "Smart Alerts."
      Tap "Enable Feature."
      Tap "Continue."
      Select the notification options that you want for "Person" and "Other Motion."
      You'll see a video camera where you can select or de-select recording and a bell icon to represent alert notifications.
      After you've adjusted your settings, tap "Done.".

      We also recommend using a Ring Solar Panel with your Stick Up Cam to assist with extending the battery life of the device.

      If any additional information is needed regarding your Ring Stick Up Cam, 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,

      Hi nnnnn.
      Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We understand the importance of having a solid charge on your Ring Stick Up Cam so that you are able to have a longer time between charge cycles. Having longevity in a battery-powered security device is crucial when it comes to monitoring your home, especially if you are away for long periods of time. We are here to provide you with some education to resolve the battery life 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 device set up for optimal battery-life performance. The more events captured by your Ring devices, the more your battery is used. Using "Live View" can also drain your battery faster. If your device is capturing an excessive number of events each day, you may need to recharge your battery sooner.
      To prevent excessive activity, under "Motion Settings" for your device in the Ring app, you can:
      Adjust your "Motion Sensitivity" slider to a lower sensitivity.
      Redraw your "Customizable Motion Zones."
      Change "Motion Frequency" to regularly or periodically.
      You could also adjust the direction of your Ring device so it doesn't detect as much motion.
      You can go to "Power Settings" in the Ring app to see what features may be draining your battery.
      To access "Power Settings," open the Ring app:
      Tap the menu (≡) on the top left of the dashboard.
      Tap "Devices."
      Tap the individual device (video doorbell or security camera) you want to check.
      Tap "Power Settings" to check your "Battery Level" percentage and "Feature Power Usage."
      Tap a feature to adjust "Snapshot Capture," "Motion Frequency," and "Video Recording Length.".

    Trouble with battery not holding a charge

    Have to charge the battery too often. It is very inconvenient. Maybe I missing something! Then can't find a phone number to contact them to stop the annual automatic withdrawal of a fee for their service. Hopefully Best Buy can help me contact Ring

    I have 1gig internet and was having issues getting this to connect reliably. It was mounted just outside a glass door, but I have no other reception/signal issues out there with any other products. The nest camera I ended up switching to works perfectly. If you are getting one of these to use outside get a hardwired one.
