    Works Great Except 2 Things

    This is a great camera for our back patio security. There are only 2 things that have disappointed me so far: 1. The motion zone settings are not like my other 2 Ring cameras where you can custom adjust the zone to any size or shape you want. This camera only lets you adjust the size defaults. 2. When I receive an alert for motion I cannot see the video right away. It takes a minute or so to download. Not great if there is an active issue going on. This is the case with other Ring cameras on occasion too.

    I purchased the wireless and the wired version the biggest difference between the two is the customization. You are pretty much stuck with the settings this comes with. I wish you could change the lights brightness and the amount of time the light stays on, both can be customized on the wired version. I have the solar panel set up but haven't seen the sun since I installed it, so not sure how that works yet. Overall this is a great camera considering that it's wireless but if you have the ability to get the wired version buy that.

      Hi there, I understand the importance of having your Spotlight Cams detect and record visitors to your property. It's possible that whatever is triggering the motion detection on one Spotlight Cam is not crossing into the Motion Zones of the other. I'd suggest reviewing your Motion Zones, as well as checking the Motion Frequency setting to ensure it's set to your liking. You can learn more about Motion Frequency here https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/115003477106. If you still have questions, see what other neighbors have to say on the Ring Community https://community.ring.com/, our peer-to-peer forum. Best wishes, Ashley from Ring. Ring

    I liked the way install. I did return them because if you have all features enabled and all triggers on, it does kill the battery. It holds 2 batteries but only comes with 1 for each camera. Quality was ok. Motion sensor was pretty good. If you don't mind charging them often then this is for you. Also, anyone can remove there battery, as it does not require a special tool to open the battery latch.

      Hello TomBrady,

      Thank you for taking a moment to leave your review on the Ring Spotlight Camera. At Ring, we believe that stronger communities are the key to safer neighborhoods. 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. We are saddened to read that this device did not meet your expectations, but are still here to assist you, if needed.

      Based on your review, it seems that you are having trouble keeping your Ring Spotlight Camera battery charged. If this is the case, you may want to adjust your motion settings. Motion Frequency is a control in the Ring app that allows you to customize motion alerts to your home environment and preserve battery life. When the areas that you’re monitoring have excessive or repetitive motions, such as children playing in a yard, you may receive too many alerts, which can drain battery-operated devices too fast. Motion frequency controls were designed to help you get the notifications that you want and preserve battery life. Here is a helpful article that explains this feature in more detail: https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/115003477106-Understanding-and-Optimizing-Motion-Detection-with-Motion-Frequency.

      If you still have the Ring device in your possession, we invite you to reach out to us at https://community.ring.com/. Ring Community is our first peer-to-peer community forum, giving our customers the ability to help one another and share their personal feedback/experiences with Ring. We look forward to hearing from you, if we can be of any further assistance!

      Thank you,
      Jamila with Ring Ring
