    Brandon installed our new ring cameras and solar panels. He asked us about how where to use the cameras to improve security and then quickly recommend placement location, installed and set up each camera and solar panel. He made sure that the cameras were all linked to our existing system. Quick, neat, courteous and good representative of Best Buy Total Tech.

    Arlo mania

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

    The Arlo system serves me well. It captures a wide angle view, however, it is mounted in a high traffic area causing detection every few seconds, ive adjusted the Svensson settings, but, i still get constant movement. The battery life for the ones not in high traffic areas will last well up to 2-3 weeks without a charge, however, over time the battery depletes and must be charged daily. Overall, this was a great purchase, i will purchase additional devices. The Geek Squad came out and set everything up, and adjusted the angles for bed views. They were remarkable. In and out less than 30 minutes.
