motion in the dark. These use more battery power than cameras monitoring
motion in a well-lit room.
Arlo Pro 3 Cameras work well when they are as far away as 300 feet from the
SmartHub. Cameras positioned farther away from the SmartHub use more battery
power than cameras positioned close to the SmartHub.
Your Arlo camera lets you choose the quality level of the video it records. Cameras
set to high-quality video recording use more battery power than cameras set to
low-quality video recording.
Does my WiFi environment affect my Arlo camera battery?
