Review on 🌞 iTODOS Solar Panel with Outdoor Power Charging Cable and Adjustable Mount for Arlo Pro and Arlo Pro 2 (Silver) by Rushabh Gonsales

Revainrating 5 out of 5

The rating is almost zero. Please read why I changed my mind

I ordered a used one of these solar panels from Revain inventory at a reduced price. When I received the product, as recommended, I left it in the sun for several days without plugging it in. I live in Las Vegas, where it's almost always sunny. When I went to connect the solar panel to the camera. Nothing has happened. I figured it might need a few more days to charge, or the place I kept it got partial sunlight. Nothing happened again. I even tried leaving the panel plugged in to see if it charges when the sun comes up. After trying for several days, I decided to return this panel and do away with this brand. But then I thought I'd return this one and try another. After receiving my "new" used panel from Revain's warehouse, I replaced the old panel with a new one at the same location and waited 3 days to charge it. After 3 days of charging, I plugged in the panel and it immediately started charging the camera. Camera charging at the end of the day went from 12% to 68%. The first panel was of poor quality. I was going to give zero stars but then realized it wasn't the company's fault that I received a bad used unit. Reviews should reflect the company's products and services, not Revain. So far I am very satisfied with the new solar module. A zero star is awarded to Revain Warehouse Quality Control for not inspecting the first solar panel, repackaging and reselling the defective unit. Luckily Revain has a great replacement/exchange policy but it took many days to see if the original panel would work. After all, I would definitely buy again for my other cameras.

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • No instructions
