Posted .Hello Ed8020,
Our top priority at Ring is to ensure that our customers have the best possible experience with our products. We really appreciate your feedback. Our team is always striving to improve our products and their performance.
While batteries in Ring devices can go months between recharges with normal use, this is dependent on a number of factors in your home's environment such as the local weather and the number of activities captured.
The more events captured by your Ring Spotlight Cam Battery, the more your battery is used to power the live HD Video stream to your device. Even if you do not answer the call, video is still sent from your Ring product to the Ring servers. If your device is capturing an excessive number of events each day, you may need to recharge your battery sooner. In addition, the battery is also drained each time you use the Live View to look or speak through your camera. To prevent excessive activity, you can adjust your motion settings to a lower sensitivity, disable certain zones, adjust the motion frequency to best fit your needs, or adjust the direction of your Ring device.
For any additional questions or concerns, please feel free to reach out on our community forum at https://community.ring.com/. You can also visit our help site, https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us, for tips & tricks, videos and help articles for all our Ring products.
Thank you,
Antonio from Ring

I would recommend this to a friendMy second Spotlight Cam...
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.and it does the job watching my property. Sometimes it is a little slow to react , but I think it is an Amazon issue and not with the camera itself.

I would recommend this to a friendGreat item
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.They work well but you may need a WiFi extender. A WiFi extender of more than 750 mbps if you are using multiple cameras and the extender must be properly placed.

||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Camera works great if you have a strong wifi signal. My wifi strength isn't the best, so my camera doesn't always work like it should.

||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Just what we wanted, downloaded the app - and now the entire family has access on their smart phones. Also works well with Echo Show.
I would recommend this to a friendGood for security
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We really like the benefit of have the ability to activate a light on notice of nighttime motion. The light casts a glare, though, and makes it hard to see anything.
I would recommend this to a friendWorks well, but video quality is just OK.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The camera works well, and the notifications on the phone are quick (within 5 seconds) when it senses motion. The video quality is its weakness. Definitely not 1080p, as advertised. It’s 480p at best. I tested it next to the router with speeds of 210/20 Mbps. Since it doesn’t support 5G bandwidth, those speeds mean nothing to this camera. They also exaggerate the Ring doorbell’s video resolution; that one is well below standard definition.

Posted .Hi Raul,
We understand how important it is to have clear video from your security devices. The Ring Spotlight Camera is intended to deliver up to 1080p HD video. Although upload speeds do affect the overall performance you get from your device, you should still be able to get great functionality from your camera. We're here to help you find a solution.
If your distance test resulted in the same video quality, it may be due to network congestion. In this case, you can change your current wifi channel to 1, 6, or 11 as they do not overlap other channels. Changing to one of these channels should improve your video quality, and can help with most audio issues as well.
Although we are confident that the above will resolve your issue, we invite you to visit our Community Forum for further advice. You can visit us at https://community.ring.com/.
All the best,
Marlom at Ring
Wow... It lights up too!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a pretty cool add on to the Ring system. It’s small enough to not be obtrusive outside and lights up as well!
I would recommend this to a friendGood product
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It’s good but I’m not sure how long it’s going to hold up in the weather. Barrie’s have lasted a month so that’s great. Love the motion activated lights and sirens
