    Not overly thrilled with these cameras. They completely miss some things, but they are very clear when they record. The mounts aren't very good, either

    It would be nice if they had a built-in solar panel immediately on top but I like the size and the batteries last longer than I anticipated.

    It is a good camera but the black color not always is available at stores if you need to replace any other one that you have for any reason. For the rest it is a good outdoor camera.

    It works great butter you need two batteries unless you like changing them once a week. Maybe the wired connection is better

      Hello Okay,

      Thank you for leaving a review. We understand how important it is to ensure that the battery is holding its proper charge and how cumbersome recharging the batteries can be. Please know that we are here to resolve these concerns with you today.

      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.

    Works well but not perfect camera. Sometimes, it is slow to connect WIFI to view live. Also, paying a subscription is required after 30 days for trial.
