It was such a difficult process to do returns.
||Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It broke about 6months after the warranty expired and was a Lil faulty before that.It expired during covid-19 pandemic when everything was shut down. So now I’m stuck buying another one. Did BB have a plan in effect to accommodate their customers during this trying time?

Posted .Hello Stephaneb,
Thank you for taking a moment to leave your review of the Ring Solar Panel. We know how important it is to have peace of mind when it comes to your home security, and having an unresponsive device can be concerning. Please know that we are here to assist and are confident that we can find you a resolution in a timely manner.
After reading your review, it seems that your Ring Solar Panel is not fully charging your Ring Spotlight Camera Battery. Ring recommends at least three to four hours of direct sunlight, depending on your usage. Make sure there are no obstructions that could cast a shadow on your solar power device, such as an extended roof, tree branches, or bushes. If your installation area is frequently very cloudy or gets a lot of rain or snow, this could limit the amount of sunlight that your solar power device receives.
The solar panel requires direct sunlight. Filtered/indirect sunlight through the clouds will not provide a charge to your doorbell/camera. Here is a helpful article that explains this in more detail: https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/115005282806-Solar-Panel-for-Spotlight-Cam-and-Stick-Up-Cam-Battery-Information.

Great solar panel
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These panels work great with all the ring devices. I would like to see the bases to be made thicker for windy areas as they may be more likely to break.

Mediocre
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Hopefully this one works. Bought 2 a year ago and one has stopped working. Will not charge my camera battery. It does keep the battery charged when working. Hopefully this one works for a while.

I would recommend this to a friendSolar battery power
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.First time I hooked it up my batteries were already almost dead at 19 % set this up and within a couple of days the 2 batteries were only at 37%. Not saying it doesn’t work but it’s slow on charging I upgraded to the wireless pro

I would recommend this to a friend Nice charger.
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Works well. It keeps the camera charged. It was buried in snow for a couple of weeks and resumed charging when the snow melted. Worth the investment!
I would recommend this to a friendTime saver!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This solar panel has saved me a lot of time from having to recharge batteries. I my batteries still lose charge and have to be charged every now and then but I believe that is due to me not having the solar panel in the most beneficial place. I could have done better and seen better results.
I would recommend this to a friendA solar panel that works

I would recommend this to a friendGreat product
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Have not installed yet but I love all my Ring products to date. We are putting this with a camera in our eaves so we don’t have to keep changing the batteries.
I would recommend this to a friendNice for the price.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This does well. I think it could be a bit smaller and less noticeable. HOA had issues, so I had to move where it was placed. It gets a little less direct light, but still powers well.
