    This ring camera works great. The spotlight on it is bright enough and definitely is used as a deterrent for anyone that comes to our property at night.

    This is our third Ring Spotlight system. The range adjustment allows to customize how far out you want alerts and how sensitive. It's best to get the solar panel accessory.

    Purchased the out door camera as well. People see the camera and they really think twice. I like that you can hear the sounds outside and also can speak as well.

    Trust me- you will want 2 cameras when you put up one. They hold two rechargeable batteries, though it will work with one.

    I like it. For longer distances it's just okay in picking up movement but it is what it is. Good quality close and the battery lasts much longer than the doorbell.

      Hi Zayn.

      Thank you for sharing your feedback with us.

      We understand the importance of having a solid charge on your Ring Spotlight Cam Battery device so that you can have a longer time between charge cycles. Having longevity in a battery-powered security device, such as the Ring Spotlight Cam Battery, is crucial when it comes to monitoring your home, especially if you are away for long periods of time. We can definitely assist you with this today, and we are confident we can find the correct settings for your home’s environment.

      It sounds like you are having to recharge your device frequently. Your Spotlight Cam security camera may not need recharging with normal use. However, this depends on a number of factors in your home environment, such as the weather and the number of activities captured.

      There may be things in your environment, such as the shadow of a moving tree branch or the sun glinting off a shiny object, that may trigger a motion event and send out notifications that you don't really want. You can use the motion sensitivity slider to reduce these kinds of motion alerts.

      To Access Motion Settings:

      Tap the three lines on the top left of your Ring app.
      Tap your Spotlight Cam Wired.
      Tap Motion Settings.
      Adjust the motion sensitivity according to your preferences.

      Hello Rana,

      Thank you for taking a moment to leave your review of the Ring Solar Panel. We know how important it is to have peace of mind when it comes to your home security, and having an unresponsive device can be concerning. Please know that we are here to assist and are confident that we can find you a resolution in a timely manner.

      After reading your review, it seems that your Ring Solar Panel is not fully charging your Ring Spotlight Camera Battery. Ring recommends at least three to four hours of direct sunlight, depending on your usage. Make sure there are no obstructions that could cast a shadow on your solar power device, such as an extended roof, tree branches, or bushes. If your installation area is frequently very cloudy or gets a lot of rain or snow, this could limit the amount of sunlight that your solar power device receives.

      The solar panel requires direct sunlight. Filtered/indirect sunlight through the clouds will not provide a charge to your doorbell/camera. Here is a helpful article that explains this in more detail: https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/115005282806-Solar-Panel-for-Spotlight-Cam-and-Stick-Up-Cam-Battery-Information.

      Ring Community launched in March 2019 to help deliver the most current news and educational information to our customers. You can find tips and tricks from other Ring users at https://community.ring.com/. This peer-to-peer forum allows our neighbors to share their feedback and experiences to assist each other in resolving their concerns.

      Thank you, Jamila with Ring. Ring

    It’s not bad I just needed something I could see with better lighting and this just didn’t do it for me. Upgraded to the wireless pro. Way better

    I installed one on each side of my house and they cover the entire side. Tied these in with the rest of my Ring system and cancelled my house security system. Well worth the price!

    I definitely would recommend them to anyone who would want to keep an eye out on their property. You get notifications and you can check them out from wherever you are. Would highly recommend.
