Review on πŸ”Œ Wasserstein Quick Charge 3.0 Power Adapter for Arlo Pro, Pro 2, Go - Weatherproof (White) by Justin Early

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Not what I was hoping for!

I received my order quickly and immediately tried to install the power adapter on one of my Arlo Pro external cameras. It was a little difficult to connect the USB connector to the camera as mentioned by others who have also ordered a similar item. After a few minutes I felt like the cork was in place as much as possible. After I checked the Arlo app to confirm the adapter was working, my camera displayed a message saying I'm using an unverified power adapter and it's not charging properly. The app indicated that the battery might have been charged (small flash), but in fact the battery was still not charged even after 24 hours. In addition, the operation of the camera with the new adapter was very unstable. I removed the Wasserstein power supply and used one of Arlo's internal replacement power supplies for now. The camera in question works properly again with the Arlo adapter. I then tested the Wasserstein adapter on another of my cameras and got the same result as on the first camera. I'm not sure if the power supply is defective, but it's unusable for me at the moment. I will have to send it back and order an Arlo weather adapter. Another problem was the design of the power supply. When plugged into an outlet, it sticks out nearly 3 inches, which gets in the way. I believe the connector should have a 90 degree connection to make it more efficient.
