Works well but overpriced
Works perfectly but is very expensive

Hooray arlo cams last more than 50 mins now
It's easy too expensive but better than the knock offs that stop working rapidly. We (my gopher DS) doesn't have to change the arlo pro 4 camera batteries every week anymore in the summer. Just be sure to get the gutter mount kits otherwise it's recharge and change fort nightly of your lucky.

It work’s (in an English summer at least)
Impressed. Had it 3 months and usually keeps it at 100%. Never dipped below 68%. Don’t know how it will be in winter but worth it even if it only save charging half the year

Charging slowly but surely
Connected up to my Arlo essential spot light, wireless camera. As battery was lasting 5 months when motion detection and everything turned off. But with normal viewing use it was only lasting 2 to 3 months. I just got fed up charging it. The price of this solar panel was much cheaper than others I had seen. I cable tied it up just like I did the camera. (Which was meant to be temporary but is doing the job of staying put very well lol). When I connected it up, the camera was on 30%. Viewing on and off through the day on my phone, and overcast weather the charge went down to 27. The thunder bolt was showing up ten minutes after first plugging it in. More sun shine in the days that followed and keeping the motion sensor off for now, and only viewing outside when needed. The battery charge is going up 7% a day, on sunny days. Testing the night vision and with the spot light on and odd viewing for 5 to 10 minutes through the day direct from my phone, only reduced the battery by 3%. Once it’s fully charged I will turn the motion sensor back on when needed. So far I’m really happy with this solar panel. But I don’t need to rely on it for constant security reasons. It’s mainly used to check on the kids when they r outside, when I’m not in the room to look out the window. I’m hoping even if or when the camera goes dead in the winter; it will turn back on come summer, without me having to mess about charging it again. Because every time I was having to remove it for charging, I was frightened of dropping the camera. Especially if I suddenly saw a spider.Update: battery icon on camera setting wasn’t showing the thunder bolt all day and still showing 72% since the day before. But the next day the charge showed 84% and no thunderbolt still but the black bar in the battery icon is fully filled. So even though I was getting worried some days it wasn’t charging if the thunder bolt icon wasn’t showing, it is charging! So I’m still happy and the camera charge only goes down one percent, when I’ve viewed the outside from my phone a few times for around a total of 10 minutes a day. The extra charging percentage just takes a full day or even the next day to update on my settings it seems.

Does the job, just not in winter
Perfect fit-and-forget accessory though it does not work in winter. The other three seasons are all OK but you will have to charge the battery in the more conventional way during winter.

Must have to your Arlo cameras
Brought these as my battery life after changing my cameras was running out rather quickly and invested into these for my cameras and I was rather skeptical seeing reviews and honestly I cannot fault them they are doing an amazing job

No nail clips included
Works well no issues after several months. Seems to hold charge around 85% and I have a 24hr recording subscription. It's an external cable but offer no clips to run cable sadly, Screwfix had some for very little money. Arlo eco system is very pricey but I find keeping genuine parts worth it especially is have new subscription which includes added warranty.
