Battery spotlight cam misting over

I’ve just bought and installed two spotlight battery cameras (purchased as a twin pack). The last two mornings with the temperature at -1 one of the cameras is completely misted over (“Garage”) in the attached images; “Patio” is the other one from the pair and this one is fine.

I know this was an op from some time ago, so this is a general observation on camera lens fogging, this happens when relatively cold air contacts the relatively warmer air inside the camera lens, this causes condensation on the warmer side, to prevent this would require the interior of the camera to be hermetically sealed by either a vacuum or purged and the Air replaced with an moisture free inert gas, or a heater near the lens to evaporate the condensation, at the price point of these cameras this would not be a reasonable expectation, while consideration of water exposure should be given when mounting exterior cameras, it is not possible to eliminate moisture in the air, sorry this is not a answer that offers a solution but is meant only as an explanation of the cause of the effect
