    Hey @stew455! If you Spotlight Cam is not powering up, I recommend checking the breaker or even testing another outlet to see if it will power on. The next best step would be to try a reset. For the reset, please press and hold down the setup button for 20 seconds, and then see if it powers on. If it's still not powering on, please reach out to our support team at 1-800-656-1918 for further troubleshooting!

      i had done all that troubleshooting turns out 1 of the 3 copper spring loaded prongs that conduct the current from the camera to the wired base was stuck pressed down. I played around with it and it released to look like the other 2 and when I reconnected the camera it powered on.

      This solved my issue, 3 years after this post was made. None of the prongs were stuck down but I pushed them down and poof, the camera powered on. Thanks stew455!!
