Wyze floodlight v1 and new V4 cam

Be careful with the extended USB cable especially connecting to Floodlight V1 USB auxiliary port. You might run into problems if the cable is too long.

I was previously running a 33 feet USB cable setup to power a V3 camera and it started acting weird. It will record fine for a few days and then it stops recording and I get “No video at the selected time” when I try to playback my SD recordings. The camera itself still functions fine except for recording (detection, siren, live view, & everything else still works). It is only until after restarting the camera does it start to record again, but then it stops after 2 to 3 days. In the end, I finally figured out it was my long 33 feet USB cable was causing the voltage to drop too low at a specific outdoor temperature (mainly on a sunny afternoon) so I used a separate 5V 2A power adapter plugged into an outdoor socket to fix it.
