Camera lights turn on without motion

The lights on my floodlight cam and spotlight cam often come on at night multiple times without any motion detected, or light schedule. Just wondering if anyone else sees this behavior, or knows the possible cause.

    Hi @tpg0007. This could be because you have the Light Sensitivity set too high. You can adjust this in the Ring app under Device Settings > Light Settings. Also, be sure that your Cam is properly positioned to optimize how motion is detected. This Help Center article [here](https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/360000124983-Proper-Positioning-for-Your-Floodlight-Cam) has more information about proper position.

        I have exactly the same issue. I have recuced sensitivity, moved the camera position and even recduced the range, but the lights comtinite to trigger regularly through the night. I have now resorted to totally disabling the lights on the app but they still come on and it's really annoying our neighbours!
