While many factors go into battery life including temperature, amount of motion detected, and quality of batteries, we’ve seen an average of 3 months between charging times. The general rule of thumb is cameras that face an active scene (think busy street or an active sidewalk) tend to need recharging more often. This is because of the amount of motion that gets detected. Every time motion is detected, the video is recorded then transmitted to a cloud server. This process uses a significant amount of battery.
