Frequently Asked Questions

What temperature range do Arlo cameras work in?
Arlo cameras operate optimally between 0°F and 110°F (-18°C to 43°C). Outside this range, the camera may throttle performance or shut down to protect the battery.
Why does my Arlo camera overheat in summer?
Arlo cameras overheat when exposed to direct sunlight, mounted near heat sources, or in areas with poor ventilation. Moving to shade or adding a camera housing can prevent overheating.
Can cold weather damage my Arlo camera battery?
Extreme cold can reduce battery performance and trigger protection modes, but typically won't cause permanent damage. Bringing the battery indoors to warm up usually resolves the issue.
How do I prevent Arlo camera temperature errors?
Install cameras in shaded areas, use weatherproof housings in extreme climates, keep cameras away from heat sources, and consider solar panels to reduce battery drain in hot weather.
Will my Arlo camera work normally after cooling down?
Yes, once the battery temperature returns to the normal operating range (0°F to 110°F), your Arlo camera should resume normal operation automatically without any permanent damage.
