Hi KevinC.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We understand the importance of having a solid charge on your Ring Outdoor Cam (Formerly known as the Ring Stick Up Cam) so that you are able to have a longer time between charge cycles. Having longevity in a battery-powered security device is crucial when it comes to monitoring your home, especially if you are away for long periods of time. We are here to provide you with some education to resolve the battery life issue you mentioned in your review.

It sounds like the device is not performing as expected. There are some troubleshooting steps that you can take to ensure that you have your device set up for optimal battery-life performance. The more events captured by your Ring devices, the more your battery is used. Using "Live View" can also drain your battery faster. If your device is capturing an excessive number of events each day, you may need to recharge your battery sooner.

To prevent excessive activity, under "Motion Settings" for your device in the Ring app, you can:

Adjust your "Motion Sensitivity" slider to a lower sensitivity.
Redraw your "Customizable Motion Zones."
Change "Motion Frequency" to regularly or periodically.
You could also adjust the direction of your Ring device so it doesn't detect as much motion.

You can go to "Power Settings" in the Ring app to see what features may be draining your battery.

To access "Power Settings," open the Ring app:

Tap the menu (≡) on the top left of the dashboard.
Tap "Devices."
Tap the individual device (video doorbell or security camera) you want to check.
Tap "Power Settings" to check your "Battery Level" percentage and "Feature Power Usage."
Tap a feature to adjust "Snapshot Capture," "Motion Frequency," and "Video Recording Length.".

As cold weather sets in, lithium-ion batteries like those used in Ring Doorbells and Security Cameras may experience several issues, including trouble holding a charge, running out of power faster than normal, or losing functionality. Knowing at what temperature batteries will start to be impacted can help you take the necessary steps to keep your device working. When the temperature drops to:

36°F (3°C): The battery may not hold a charge as effectively, resulting in having to charge the unit more frequently.
32°F (0°C): The battery may not charge at all. Even hardwired configurations may not charge the battery.
-5°F (-20.5°C): The battery may stop working completely until temperatures warm up.

When it gets cold and your device's battery runs out, bring your entire device inside and charge the battery with a USB cord. This will allow your device to warm up while the battery charges.

If any additional information is needed regarding your Ring Outdoor Cam, please reach out to our community. Ring Community is our first peer-to-peer community forum, giving our customers the ability to help one another and share their feedback and experiences directly with Ring.

Thank you for being the best part of Ring! Have a wonderful day!

Sincerely,
Miyuki from Ring.

Hi Champ.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience and feedback with us. We understand the importance of having events recorded on your Ring Battery Doorbell Plus. Being able to save, download, and review footage captured by your Ring Battery Doorbell Plus is a valuable feature of the Ring Home Plan. We are happy to hear that you are enjoying the functionality of the device. While subscribed to one of our Ring Home Plans, you will have access to videos of every motion and live view event. Without this service, you will still receive real-time video alerts on your smartphone and have access to the live view feature. For more information on Ring Home Plans, please visit this link: https://ring.com/support/articles/v5hc7/introducing-ring-home-plans.

Hi DOGEWIN.

Thank you for taking the time to share this feedback with us.

We understand the importance of having all relevant product information prior to purchasing. The features and technology provided by the Ring Stick Up Cam are incredibly valuable and help provide you with peace of mind about your home security. We can definitely provide you with more information regarding the concern mentioned in your review.

It sounds like you are enjoying the features of your Ring Stick Up Cam, but you would like it to adjust modes using a geofence. A geofence is a virtual boundary you can draw around the location where your Ring devices are set up. When you draw a geofence using the Ring app, it can remind you to set your mode to "Away" when you exit the geofence. When you re-enter the geofence, the Ring app can automatically snooze alerts from your devices. Visit our support center for steps to set up geofence in the Ring app to automate features like home and away mode and snooze alerts without lifting a finger.

Hello OkVee

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We understand how important it is to get your Stick-up Cam working correctly. For your Motion Detection, we recommend first looking into your Motion Sensitivity and increasing it to maximum. Then you want to adjust your Motion Zones as well. https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/360050360052-Customizing-Motion-Zones-for-Video-Doorbells-and-Security-Cameras. We also recommend enabling Smart Alerts. https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/360032947972-Refining-Your-Motion-Alert-Notifications-for-People-and-Other-Motions-. If your Camera has poor signal strength, we suggest reviewing this Help Center article on what can be done to help. https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/217271526-Checking-Wifi-Signal-Strength.
