Battery FAQs
How can I recharge the Arlo Pro battery?
Your Arlo Pro battery is fully charged when it leaves the factory. You can use the
power adapter cable to plug the camera into an electrical outlet to charge the
battery. You can also use the Arlo Pro Charging Station (sold separatey) to charge
the battery. For uninterrupted Arlo Pro camera use, you can purchase a spare
battery and the charging station. Then you can put the fully charged spare battery
into the Arlo Pro camera while you recharge the battery. The charging station can
recharge two batteries simultaneously.
What do I need to know about using Arlo cameras in cold weather?
Cold temperatures can aect any battery’s capacity, due to the chemistry
of batteries. This means that if you install your Arlo camera outside in cold
temperatures, you might notice a shorter battery duration for the camera, or a
faster than expected drop in the displayed battery capacity.
Why does one Arlo camera battery drain faster than another Arlo camera
battery?
Your Arlo camera is flexible and you can use it in a wide range of environments.
Your environment might include elements that aect battery life. Some of the
places that you might place your Arlo camera use more battery power than others.
Note the following examples.
Arlo cameras work well in the dark. They use infrared sensors to monitor motion in
the dark. These use more battery power than cameras monitoring motion in a well-
lit room.
Arlo cameras work well when they are as far away as 300 feet from the base
station. Cameras positioned farther away from the base station use more battery
power than cameras positioned close to the base station.
Arlo cameras let you choose the quality level of the videos that they record.
Cameras set to high-quality video recording use more battery power than cameras
set to low-quality video recording.
Will my WiFi environment aect my Arlo camera battery?
Yes. If you are in a noisy WiFi environment, your Arlo camera battery might drain
faster. Use a WiFi analyzer to test the WiFi noise in your environment.
