Solar cameras charge slowly

If your solar panel is charging slowly, please check the following:

Direct Sunlight Exposure: Ensure that the solar panel is positioned to receive direct sunlight and is not obstructed by eaves, tree leaves, or other shadows.

Reduce Camera Activations: Frequent motion triggers can cause the camera to wake up often, increasing power consumption. Consider adjusting the camera’s angle to avoid high-traffic areas, or lower the sensitivity settings to reduce the frequency of triggers.

Limit Live Viewing: Regularly viewing live feeds or playback can also drain the battery. It’s advisable to access these features only when necessary.

Alternative Solar Panel Setup: If your device have a fixed solar panel that cannot be moved to a better sunlit area due to installation constraints, consider connecting an additional solar panel to improve charging efficiency.
