    The product work as it should. Easy to install. Takes a few days to get 100 percent charge from dead but will maintain chargers after started.

    They changed the cable connection on the cameras so when you buy new cameras you have to rebuy new solar panels.

    One of these stopped charging and is no longer returnable because it was 45 days after purchase. There should be at least 90 days to return!! Now, I'm out $35!! Buy the name brand and watch the warranty on these since there really is no way to tell it isn't charging until at least 30 days.

    Saw a couole of reviews and thiught these sounded good. Im not aure ifni have a defective set or what but ultiamtely the chord that plugs into the back of the camera makes any mount unusable the way you have to plug it in. When plugged in it covers up the mounting hole and therefore i am unable to use. Very unsatissfied.

    A solar panel is great, when it works. I returned this junk and bought cables instead. Cables work day and night, cloudy or sunny, and, if you do a good joob, look better.

    Drains my batteries instead of charging them!

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I recently installed one of the solar panels on my camera that is facing my back patio, a location that does not get a lot of action so the camera does not go off very often. Within a week, my battery went from 100% to dead to 4% the next day back to dead to 5% the next day and then dead again. I replaced the battery with a 100% charged battery and after two days and very little motion detected, it is now down to 18%. Rather than charging my batteries, it’s killing them! My other cameras, which detect motion frequently throughout the day, tend to last 30-60 days. They do not have panels connected to them. I do not reccomend this product.
