Step-by-Step Guide to Charging Your Wyze Cam with Solar Power: Maximize Battery Life with Wyze Solar Panel

To keep your Wyze Cam Outdoor or Wyze Battery Cam Pro charged using the Wyze Solar Panel, follow these steps: 1. Installation: Choose a location that receives direct sunlight throughout the day. Use the wall mount base to secure the solar panel, ensuring it is angled upward at 30° and facing south if you're in the northern hemisphere. 2. Connection: Insert the micro USB cable from the solar panel into the waterproof sleeve of the power adapter. For the Wyze Battery Cam Pro, ensure you have the Wyze Solar Panel USB-C Adapter Cable, which is sold separately. 3. Charging: Remove the silicone cover from the camera's charging port and insert the power adapter securely. The solar panel will charge the camera during daylight hours and will stop once the battery reaches 100%. It will resume charging when the battery level drops below 90%. 4. Adjustment: You can adjust the solar panel's angle up to 90° at the elbow or side to side by loosening the locking screw cap. Ensure all screws are tightened after adjustments. By following these steps, you can efficiently harness solar power to keep your Wyze cameras running longer without frequent recharging.
