Installing your Ring Spotlight Cam Wired is a simple process. The steps below will help you prepare and mount your Spotlight Cam. image": "//en-uk.ring.com/cdn/shop/files/ring_spotlightcampro-battery_wht_1500x1500_be57658f-e5e4-484f-b9ed-cd3faf382c3e.png?v=1688385203",WARNING: Please follow standard electrical code in your country. Depending on the age of the home, the wires may not match the colours shown. Consult an electrician if you are unsure. For the technology the Ring Spotlight Cam Pro Battery includes, and the brand’s typical ease of use, it’s fairly reasonably priced – comparable cameras can easily cost up to a third more. However, it’s slightly pricier than Ring’s Spotlight Cam Plus Battery, which is its more affordable option. The earth wire must be connected to the product. DO NOT INSTALL if a working earth connection is not available. There’s no real indication of how long the Spotlight Cam Pro Battery’s battery should last, given that it’s largely dependent on use and the monitoring settings enlisted. Additional batteries state that they can last for months between charges, depending on use and the weather. We found that when set to frequent monitoring, our battery lost 20% of its charge in just three days, suggesting that those who want precise monitoring would be advised to invest in a second or third battery – and be prepared to charge them every fortnight or so. It was disappointing that Ring didn’t see fit to include a second battery, or a bigger battery that holds more charge. Our battery took 5.5 hours to recharge from flat.

No. You can still use your doorbell or camera to watch over your home and answer the door from anywhere, even without a subscription to Ring Protect. Without Ring Protect, you’ll still receive real-time notifications when anyone comes to your door, and you can answer the notification to see, hear and speak to visitors in real time right from your mobile device. Remove the brown (L) and blue (N) wires. Then, remove the yellow wired mount bonding conductor wire and the home protective earthing conductor wire. Illuminates and sends announcements to Echo devices whenever motion is detected, and lets you see, hear and speak to people on camera with select Echo and Fire TV devices.When mounted at 9 feet (2.7 metres) off the ground, with the motion detector parallel to the ground, the motion sensor is optimised to detect human-sized objects at up to 30 feet (9 metres). Ring Protect is a comprehensive subscription that activates video recording and photo capture, saving and sharing for your Ring doorbell or camera, plus a few extra perks.

On the whole, the Ring Spotlight Cam Pro Battery proved problem-free in terms of monitoring and alerts once it was set up, although keeping it “talking” to our Wi-Fi was an issue. The property where it was installed relies on booster discs to extend the signal outside – and while this has been sufficient for other outdoor tech, this camera didn’t work well on the system. Often simply nudging the camera for a better angle would cause it to lose connectivity. Essentially, you’ll need a solid Wi-Fi signal for the best performance – and you may well find that while the battery doesn’t limit where you install it, connectivity could have a bearing. Ring states that the Spotlight Cam Pro Battery requires a minimum upload speed of 2Mbps for optimal performance. Motion Detection uses radar technology to identify where and when a motion event will be recorded. The radar sensor measures distance and angle of objects in front of the camera, allowing for more specific motion detection alerts. Within the Ring app, users easily customize where on their property they want the camera to start recording when an object crosses a threshold. And, once 3D Motion Detection is set up, it powers Bird’s Eye View which provides an aerial map view at motion events in front of your camera and clearly shows the path that visitors take when visiting your property.

However, without a subscription to Ring Protect, you won’t be able to review any videos that you missed in real time, and you won’t be able to save your videos or share them with anyone. Photos will not be captured. If you have a subscription to Ring Protect, you can share your videos and photos with anyone, including neighbours, friends, family and local law enforcement. I found app installation and setup pretty straightforward. As long as you’re in range of the Wi-Fi signal the camera will be connected to, it’s simply a case of following the on-screen instructions to set up an account, or add the camera to an existing one. Yes. For step-by-step mounting instructions, please refer to the Setup Guide included with your camera or our Help Centre installation guides. What makes the Ring Spotlight Cam Pro a “Pro” device is that it’s equipped with Ring’s 3D Motion tech that’s also used in the Ring Floodlight Cam Pro and the Ring Video Doorbell Pro 2. Essentially, Ring’s 3D Motion Detection uses radar technology to gauge how far away an object is away from the camera, and then begin recording when a person is within a range you select during the setup process. I had the Spotlight Cam Pro set up to start recording when it identified a person within 30 feet.Note: Use a minimum 18AWG or higher round 3-core cable with outer diameter of 6-7 millimeters and core diameter of 0.75-1 millimeters. Linking the camera to Wi-Fi is straightforward, but the multiple decisions surrounding the settings you want lengthens the process somewhat, especially since they’re all available to toggle later on. An option to choose default settings would be a welcome addition for those who just want to get the Spotlight Cam Pro Battery up and running. A USB charging cable for recharging the battery is included. The rear of the Spotlight Cam Pro has a small knob that pops into an adjustable base. It was easy enough to manage, but nowhere near as simple as the Nest Cam (battery), which uses a strong magnet to keep the camera in place. Ring Spotlight Cam Pro review: Price and availability Operationally I felt there were a couple of shortcomings as well. First, the siren is plenty loud but it can only be activated manually, not automatically by motion detection as a conventional burglar alarm would. On all models, the camera and associated features remain the same, it’s just the power supply that differs. What’s more, you can retrospectively switch the power supply method by purchasing the relevant accessories.

The camera uses the same Ring mobile app as all other Ring devices and appears in a panel on the dashboard along with any other Ring devices you have installed. Tap the panel to open the camera’s home screen and then tap the play arrow to launch a live video stream that can be viewed in full-screen mode by turning your phone sideways. Here you’ll find buttons for initiating two-way talk, muting the speaker, and ending the stream. At the bottom of the screen are buttons for turning the lights and the siren on or off, and there’s a Control button that opens a screen where you can also turn the lights and siren on and off. (Credit: Ring) CAUTION: Risk of fire. Do not install near combustible or flammable surfaces. The Hardwired Kit must be installed on a wall or eave.
