Great Cameras for security.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Been using these cameras for a while now and they never disappoint. Users should definitely purchase the optional solar panels from Ring or the third party as you will never have to replace or charge a battery ever again. A small issue is that everything doesn't always pick up a recording depending on how far the distance is from the camera... Some things may be in view but not in good recording distance. Images are pretty clear, but probably even better on the more expensive model. Still highly recommended.

Posted .Hi kcj393.
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. We are pleased to read that you are enjoying your new Ring Spotlight Cam Plus and that the features included are meeting your expectations. At Ring, we believe in keeping people close to what’s important. That is why we are driven to create products that help you protect what matters most at home and empower you to connect with your visitors from wherever you are. Together, we’ll make neighborhoods safer!
We have included some information here regarding the motion detection issue that you mentioned in your review. 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's page in the Ring app. Additionally, you can choose how often the camera checks for movement in those predefined zones via the "Motion Frequency" setting and increase the "Motion Sensitivity." If you find that your camera is missing some motions, please set the motion frequency to "Frequently."
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."

A lot of bang for the buck
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are pretty cool! You can mount them anywhere that you have reasonable wifi access. I have one in the trees on the side of the house giving a great view of a hidden side of the house. They run on batteries. You have the option to use one or two batteries, it comes with one. Thus far, I only use one battery. To avoid stressing the battery too much I do not let the battery get below 45% or so. I get about 5-6 weeks out of one battery. The light power is so so. But the low light camera is very impressive. As I write this, I think Ring allows an unlimited number of cameras on their system for $100 a year (I think). Which is means you can check all of your cameras cameras on your phone or web site whenever you like. All in all, a pretty cheap method of monitoring your property.

Easy to assemble and clear footage
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I can't say I love it. It comes with 1 battery that was dying within the first 2 weeks of use. I had to purchase another battery to hold both slots, hopefully the batter will last a little longer, otherwise, I'll have to purchase the solar panel. Camera has a good picture, very footage. Easy to assemble.

Posted .Hi SavieMAC.
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We understand the importance of having a solid charge on your Ring Spotlight Cam Plus 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 you are enjoying the features your Ring Spotlight Cam Plus has to offer, but the battery life is not what you 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.".

Thank you for being the best part of Ring! Have a wonderful day!
Sincerely,
Miyuki from Ring.

Worth every cent
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We have been using Ring for about 4 years. This camera by far is the best. When live viewing the picture it super clear and the interaction sound is awesome. We have it setup above our garage but angled to view the front door. The range is wider than the previous version it covers basically our front area and parts of our neighbors on both sides.

Excellent Bargain Both Video and Audio!
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is remarkable! The rechargable battery last for about a month of continual use! I bought an extra rechargeable battery, so I can continue to use the camera and speakers are great on this camera, too! Great Bargain!
