TOO EXPENSIVE 2 WATT SOLAR PANEL + CABLE

If you need to install the Ultra in an area with a lot of object or people moving, DO NOT BUY THIS. Because it can only charge your Ultra with a few percent capacity per day. If you plan to use Ultra for such a remote location with less traffic, it will work fine for you. This panel is only "2W", EXPENSIVE. You can buy a flexible solar panel that has a USB connector and a 7m 40us cable and you can enjoy CVR recording all day long, not this overpriced panel.

Pros
  • New
Cons
  • Almost OK

Solar charging is awesome!

Camera (arlo ultra) is good but does not always report movements, night vision is better but not the advertised color wonder, 4K is really only 1080 because it costs more to use (subscription) and mostly it times out because the connection isn't strong enough to stream or just a server lag. I just used 1080 by default. As for the solar charging system, it's amazing! No charging the batteries every few weeks or the hassle of a wired power cable, especially as almost 7 months after I received the

Pros
  • Permanent test results
Cons
  • I vaguely remember

Works better than previous version for Arlo Pro

This version is fully sealed. The charger features an electromagnetic charging tip that requires no entry into the case. It is simply glued to the bottom of the ARLO Ultra Series. The solar panel seems to keep my camera fully charged and stays weatherproof. I only give 4 stars because the price is outrageous. Sorry, but you can buy a solar powered charger and just plug it into the ARLO USB for less. It won't be as weatherproof or thin, however, so you'll have to pay the price. If it lasts, I…

Pros
  • Few competitors
Cons
  • The list will be long.

Makes my life so much easier!

I can't believe I ever lived without a solar panel. And as soon as I can stay on budget I will be buying more for my other cameras! It really is a lot more convenient than lowering the camera to change batteries every week. I put this on my cameras by the door so my kids are constantly coming in and out and I don't have to keep changing batteries. And although there is only a few hours of direct sunlight in this location, this camera never charges below 90%. I'm excited to see how well it…

Pros
  • Easy installation
Cons
  • Some problems

Virtually useless *

There were high hopes that this thing would at least hold a charge, but no. Gets at least 3-4 hours of direct sunlight, and in the 90's it's been cloudless for over a week, and it's still steadily draining the charge. When I received this a week ago the charge was 68%, now it's 52% and falling. I gave it one star because it expires at least a bit slower I think. But my main reason for buying this overpriced device was not having to climb the stairs to charge it every month. another hour or two…

Pros
  • Weight
Cons
  • Some bugs

A must-have accessory for your Arlo Ultra

The Arlo Ultra 4k camera is quite a power-hungry device if you want to record 4k video. If you don't record in 4k, I don't know why anyone would buy an Arlo Ultra. So unless you plan to manually charge your camera frequently (every 2-3 weeks for me) you should get a solar charging pad. I would recommend going with Arlo as it seems better than others and less sensitive. You need to position the panel so that it gets as much direct sunlight as possible, otherwise you won't charge the camera…

Pros
  • This is awesome
Cons
  • Negative is present
