Hi Wonder.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. We understand how important it is for your Ring Spotlight Cam Plus to function consistently and reliably, so you can effectively monitor your home. The features and technology provided by the Ring Spotlight Cam Plus are incredibly valuable and help provide you with peace of mind about your home security. We want to ensure your device is working as intended by providing you with solutions to resolve the concern you mentioned in your review.

It sounds like the device is not performing as expected. To begin troubleshooting the faulty battery port that is causing the device to always report the battery as dead, start by removing both batteries and carefully inspecting the battery port contacts for any dirt, debris, or corrosion. Gently clean the contacts using a dry cotton swab or soft, dry cloth, then reinsert the batteries firmly until they click into place. If the issue persists, try inserting a fully charged spare battery to determine whether the problem lies with the battery itself or the port. If a known good battery still shows as dead, this strongly points to a hardware defect in the port.

Next, try restarting the device by pressing and holding the setup button for 10 seconds. After the restart, open the Ring app and navigate to Devices → Device Health to check whether the battery status has updated correctly. While in the Device Health section, also check whether a firmware update is available, as battery reporting issues can occasionally be caused by a software bug that an update may resolve.
