Will Maintain Battery only.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Works to keep battery fully charged. How ever the Zone option is only availble with AC plunged in only! Not available if Solar Panel is plugged in.

Not as simple as I thought...
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I figured these would be plug and play but I ended up having to update the firmware on one of the cameras before it would work. I’m also if your camera is busy it probably won’t keep up.

Solar panel should last longer!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Use the solar panel to charge the Arlo security cameras outside the house. They should last longer than they do.

Easy
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.No more climbing up a ladder to change out batteries. This thing has made maintenance a breeze. The only time it becomes a hassle is in the cold, when the sun isn’t as frequent

Too many charging problems.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Not sure what the fix is or when they will find a solution, but these solar chargers do not charge up the camera battery. Everyone I know that has one has some sort of problem with the power cord. I'm sure Arlo knows about this but has not come up with a solution. Another problem is replacement power cords. I had one that got damaged and they cannot provide me with a new one. Been waiting about a month now and nothing yet. They say they can't source a supplier and have no stock to send.

A must have.
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Depending on how much traffic you camera picks up. The batteries may have to be recharged more often. For myself every 3 to 4 weeks. I hate having to climb the latter to do so. With this solar charger, I do not have to. I love having this feature.

Powers my Arlo Pro II’s
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased two of these solar panels. One of them was defective and was exchanged at Best Buy. Since that was replaced they work like a charm.

No luck yet
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Well, I charged my Arlo Pro 2 and attached the Panel. For one reason or another I noticed my Argo getting knocked off line. I will try again and see what happens.

Good solution for charging batteries
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These panels are great to charge the batteries, they're a bit more involved than connecting the Ring solar panels.

Good Panel
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This has been a good panel which is used in a remote location. Can't say how well it is doing with weather as far as environmental wear.

Arlo Solar Panels: Name Brand the Best
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've ordered other solar panels for my Arlo Go cameras but find the mounting adapters of the actual Arlo brand to better thought out and feel assured that they will product the cameras from water seepage, but a durable mount.

This Solar panel was so easy to install.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This was a dream come true, no more climbing up the ladder to recharge my camera. everything you need comes with the solar panel . the only thing you need is a ladder and a drill gun. Install time less than a half a hour.

Solar cameras
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent for areas that are well lit but in filtered light it still struggles. Make sure to look up which direction you need to face it for your area (south where i am)

Decent solar cell
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is the newer version of the solar cell for the arlo cameras. Note the numbers are the same as the older version. I wouldn't buy the older version.

Nice
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It is very good but I expected more . It can be very helpful for my Arlo camera because I have very heavy traffic on my driveway

Great solution to not needing to charge batteries
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I really love not having to swap out or charging batteries with the solar panel. My only disappointment is it doesn't allow your camera to create "activity zones" like you can if hardwired to AC power.
