Just putting it out there. After charging to 100% my battery died after 20 days. Just a tad shy of the 3 to 6 month mark. Buyer beware. I searched for keywords “outdoor” and “battery” on the forum before posting but the threads I saw were 16 days old. Thought I’d toss out an updated result. Sorry i…

Wow, thanks! Interesting metic!

I also got around 20 days and that’s with an average of one event a day! Yes, one! I drive by it numerous times a day but my SUV must be too small for the motion sensor to pick up. This camera is one big disappointment.

I’m also really struggling with battery life (about 3 weeks per charge). I don’t get many detections per day and I’m not live streaming. Maybe I’m too far away from the base station but I’m really not that far. I haven’t installed it where I want to yet because I don’t want to drag the ladder out ev…

How many detections do you have on a daily basis ? Are you connected to Google/or Tinycam ?

Hi. Maybe 4 or 5 a day. And no not connected to anything other than Wyze base.

I am experiencing similar very short battery life…and most of my use has been inside in 70 F or less air conditioned space, I was anxious to install it outside, but after seeing battery life drain about 20% in 3 days of very light indoor use, I knew there was NO WAY the battery would last as long as…

Have you tried troubleshooting the battery life in the thread I linked below. An employee from WYZE has been helping troubleshoot the issues. The battery definitely should not be draining that fast.
