Not bad
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Tried these cameras they are good, the one thing I didn’t like is that you can’t turn them off, we have the Arlo set as well and it makes it easier with geo to turn them off

I would recommend this to a friendWorst Ring Cameras on the Market!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Horrible once again. The only reliable ring cameras are the video doorbell and flood lights, which do not work with solar panels but then again solar panels are worthless. These spotlight cams do not work and miss every event. I’ve messed with sensitivity settings and all for a year and still having issues. Do not buy trust me

Posted .Hi RonK.
Thank you for sharing your experience with us!
We understand how important it is to have your Ring Spotlight Camera Battery capture all the correct motion events. Ring devices were designed to capture motions based on your specifications to help keep your home secure. 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 your device is not detecting motion the way you want it to. Motion Zones allow you to define a specific area that you want your Ring security camera to cover while ignoring everything outside that area. In order to get proper motion detection, battery-powered cameras using passive infrared motion detection, should not be placed facing a window or in front of a glass door. To adjust your motion zones, follow these steps in the Ring app:
Tap the three lines on the top left.
Tap Devices.
Tap the device you want to adjust.
Tap Motion Settings.
Tap Edit Motion Zones on the top of the screen.
Tap Main Zone on the bottom to adjust the main area.
Tap Done on the top right to save your zone.
In addition, the Motion Wizard will help optimize your motion detection for your home after you answer a few quick questions. We highly recommend you use this as a starting point to set up motion detection for your Ring device. Visit our support center for additional information.
Ring Community was launched in March 2019 to help deliver the most current news and educational information to our neighbors. It is our first peer-to-peer community forum, giving our customers the ability to help one another and share their feedback and experiences with Ring.
All the best,
Nicole from Ring.

||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I just bought this solar cam., because somebody recommended to my sister and told her that a lot are happy with them.
I would recommend this to a friendIt's okay, gets the job done, but could be better.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Not quite a bright as I'd hope, but gets the job done. If you have a large area/driveway that needs to be monitored, get a floodlight camera. This isn't going to work well. I have 400mbps internet , and this has a pretty bad delay sometimes. Not sure what the issue is, but luckily something hasn't happened and the lag has caused issues

Posted .Hi Dave, thanks for taking the time to share your feedback on the Spotlight Cam Battery. Great callout that a Floodlight Cam may work better for neighbors who have a larger area that they want coverage for. Wifi signals don't travel very well outside of the home, which can sometimes cause instability for devices that are set up outside. I'd recommend testing your wifi where your Spotlight Cam is installed to get a better idea of the signal strength https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/360020638172-Test-Your-Wifi-Connections. For any other questions or concerns, try browsing the Ring Community https://community.ring.com/ to find answers from other neighbors. Best, Ashley from Ring.
