Ring doorbell solar panel review.
The solar charger for the ring video doorbell 2 is a small device that can be mounted behind your ring video doorbell 2.
I purchased the ring stick up camera and solar panel about six months ago on amazon.
Low and behold this the wrong solar panel.
Though ring sells other solar panels like one that charges the ring stick up cam the spotlight solar panel only works with the spotlight cam.
I tried installing and wondered why it wasn t fitting.

The battery in the camera is supposed to go a year on a charge that will never happen.
I purchased a wall solar panel as the ring solar panel is not strong enough to keep a full charge on the ring doorbell 3 so i drilled into the ring doorbell solar unit running the wire from the wall solar panel and soldered the wires inside to the screw of the ring doorbell.
Well this is not the case.
If you want more than that you should look at a charger with a full solar panel or consider running wires to the ring doorbell.
With just a few hours of direct sunlight everyday your doorbell will stay charged around the clock.
The camera that comes with ring s spotlight cam solar bundle is the same as the company s spotlight cam battery 199 but with a 7 75 by 5 5 inch rectangular solar panel that you connect to.
If clouds are in the way.
The site suggested this solar panel.
The camera is great and the solar panel kept the camera fully charged all summer but after the first cold snap the battery dropped to 50 and won t go any higher.
The ring doorbell that i ordered with this was 2nd generation.
Ther solar charger is convenient power to help charge and extend the battery life of your ring video doorbell 2.
So if your goal is to extend the time between charges and if your doorbell does get some direct sunlight then this charger is a perfect solution.
Note that the spotlight cam solar panel is unique to the spotlight cam.
Solar charger is a secure mounting bracket with built in solar panels designed for the original ring video doorbell.
Since i have another solar panel that is charging a ring stickup cam battery very well i expected the same results with the wasserstein solar panel for the ring video doorbell 2.
Just like the description says the wasserstein solar panel for ring video doorbell 2 needs direct sunlight.
Meanwhile this is for a ring 2.
