Spotlight cam battery not charging with solar panel i have solar panels connected to my spotlight cameras amp.
Ring spotlight solar panel not charging.
Route the charging cable from your solar panel into the power connector on spotlight cam.
I have had to change the battery twice this week already.
My panel is not a ring branded one so they did not want to replace it although i already had the company send me a new one initially thinking that was the issue but it was not.
They said per the logs it is charging but i see it dropping 7 8 battery everyday with only a few motion triggers per day it should be able to keep up.
The solar panel is on toof top getting at least 12hrs of sun daily.
Note that the spotlight cam solar panel is unique to the spotlight cam.
With just a few hours of direct sunlight per day it will keep your spotlight cam or stick up cam battery fully charged.
The solar panel which sells independently for 49 00 is weatherproof and connects to your spotlight cam battery using a 13 foot.
Charge the battery for five to 10 minutes then reinsert it.
The spotlight cam solar panel is a small device that can be mounted outdoors and connected to your spotlight cam or stick up cam battery with a cable.
Contact support if the issue persists.
Plug the solar panel charging cable into the spotlight cam.
Plug the snap ring barrel charging cable into the power connector on spotlight cam.
Though ring sells other solar panels like one that charges the ring stick up cam the spotlight solar panel only works with the spotlight cam.
Remove the center plug.
Initially it was jus one of my spotlight cams bit now both cameras i had to change the battery amp.
You may need to try a different power outlet or micro usb charging cable if there are no charging lights lighting up on the battery.
If the camera is still not powering on hold the setup button for 20 seconds.
