Review on Arlo Floodlight Wire Free 6 Month Activated by Terry Kohl

I've been using Arlo cameras for 2 years and I really like them. The best thing about them is that they can be installed almost anywhere and I always make sure the power cord is there so I don't have to keep changing batteries. I currently have 3 Arlo Ultra 4k cameras all using Wasserstein power cables with no issues. When I bought this fixture I ordered the same cables as the fixture uses the same cable connector as the Ultra 4k cameras. I like Wasserstein because they are reasonably priced and of good quality. The problem is that this Spotlight cam turns itself off when using anything other than Arlo's own power cable (and at a ridiculously high price). What the hell Arlo? In the first screenshot you can see the heater turning itself off when connected to the Wasserstein power cable. The funny thing is that in this screenshot, the camera directly below (Arlo Ultra) uses the same Wasserstein cable and is working fine. There is no explanation for this other than that Arlog is getting greedy and implementing firmware updates designed to block third-party power cables. I wouldn't mind buying Arlo cables, but they cost $50. Yes, $50 for the USB cable! The camera itself is good and the light is bright so I keep it to myself. You can definitely tell it's not as good as 4k cameras, which makes me wonder why the Spotlight isn't offered in the 4k version. But my biggest concern is that if all new Arlo cameras only require Arlo-branded cables, I probably won't buy them again. I've been a regular Arlo customer and have recommended them to friends and family, but that will now be discontinued unless Arlo allows us to use third-party cables like all of their older cameras do. Yesterday I got this stupid $50 cable and now it works like it should with other cables. There is no reason why this shouldn't work with Wassersteinkabel.
