did not turn on after 8 months or after 4 successful charges

Purchased this item in October 2017 and has only been able to successfully charge my camera batteries 4 times with it. It's June 2018 and the station doesn't even turn on anymore. I'm currently working with Netgear support to replace this item, but after my research these charging stations seem to stop working very quickly (same problem, won't turn on). So I would definitely not recommend this product.

Pros
  • Nice
Cons
  • Faulty

These cables and micro USB connectors on Arlo cameras are .

This cable and the micro USB connectors on Arlo cameras are defective. I bought 5 refurbished Arlo Pro cameras and was able to charge them once with the cables that came with them. They didn't charge after that so I got this charger. I charged the batteries once and now it doesn't work anymore. I have tried several cables and chargers. The only reason I buy another charger is because it's too late to return the cameras.

Pros
  • Everything is fine!
Cons
  • Minus present

Netger Arlo is a great idea but their hardware quality control is terrible. We've had so many issues with cameras, batteries and this charging dock not charging properly. And Netgear knew there were a lot of fake serial numbers out there, but didn't bother to do anything about it. Worst of all, you have to deal with Netgear support. Oh, and you'll have to pay your own shipping for their defect. Charming,

Pros
  • Free for educational purposes
Cons
  • Available in black only

Disposable USB connector "mother " - beware!

Stops working after multiple uses. Many others had this problem. There is no electricity at the train station. This is due to inferior materials used for the micro USB socket. It deteriorates quickly. I confirmed this by examining the port with a 1000x digital microscope. If you are considering purchasing this item I would recommend that you connect the USB cable to the device once and then never remove it. This allows a longer connection to be provided. I thought of ransom and tried thisโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Useful beyond its intended purpose
Cons
  • Frequency

The charger is suitable for charging two batteries at the same time. There are no problems with charging. However, the reliability of the design of the docking station leaves much to be desired. I can see from other reviews that the design has a major flaw in the spring loaded battery holder. The nib and holder popped out of the dock on first use. I only discovered the issue after the Revain return period, thankfully the Arlo Support Center agreed to send me a replacement (which led to my extra

Pros
  • GOLS certified

  • Empty

Stops working after 4 months

Died after 4 months. The batteries in the cameras will continue to charge (a slower option that disables the camera - we did this to always have a charged extra pair of batteries ready), so we know it's a charger. It took three attempts with customer service to get a one-year warranty replacement. When I first called I wasn't home and once they understood my problem (communication was DIFFICULT) after about 30 minutes of conversation they asked for a serial number and I didn't have it with meโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Full set
Cons
  • Long delivery time

Just bought it, both batteries are charging and not broken (yet)!

Talk about low expectations. After all the horrible reviews of the Pro 2 chargers, I'm hoping to verify their reliability before Revain's 30-day return window ends. I treat him with kid gloves. I carefully connected the charging cable (minimize wear on the micro USB pins) and carefully inserted the two batteries at 60% and both batteries are charging (solid amber)! Charging the first battery took about 1 hour. Hopefully I can update the review after a few reloads. Hey Arlo, why are you tryingโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Elegant design
Cons
  • Communication with seller

I have an Arlo Pro home security/surveillance system. Each of my four Arlo Pro cameras came with a rechargeable Arlo battery (four batteries total), and the 'kit' included a 'Wall Wart' charger. Here's what happened: At one point, one of the four camera batteries died, and the Arlo system sent me a text message and email telling me that the camera battery was low and needed to be charged or replaced. Kudos to Arlo/Netgear for letting me name each camera and the alerts are something likeโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Acceptable
Cons
  • Minor
