Review on iTODOS Solar Panel Works with Arlo Essential Spotlight Camera, 11.8Ft Outdoor Power Charging Cable and Adjustable Mount - Pack of 3, Silver by Mikey Shook

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Do yourself a favor and do not buy this item! Doesn't charge, drains battery!

First of all. Some of the panels I received had stains on the glass itself. Problem 1) Once you put it on, the locking mechanism is so poorly designed that it won't lock where you actually place it, so you just have to do it until it closes completely. , which is meaningless since being outside, a strong gust of wind could move it. But the way it pivots on the mount, it can't lock there, allowing the panel to move whether the mount is locked or not! Problem 2) The item does not charge the camera but discharges it. The camera battery can officially last 3 to 6 months but after fully charging all my cameras to 100 I connected them to solar panels. ALL cameras were completely discharged to zero in 4 days!?! Problem 3) You would assume that if the sun hits the panel directly for more than 20 minutes then the panel should charge the camera, but not with these panels. She was sitting facing and facing the right way in the sun as the instructions say, but he didn't even charge the camera! It is charged once, and then not charged in a day, and then discharged for several days. All of the above problems did not occur with any of the panels received. but also to all the panels that I installed for my cameras.

Pros
  • availability
Cons
  • sad packaging
