Wired or Battery?

Installing stick up cams with solar panel,,in the setup should they be set up as wired mode or battery mode? When I use the battery mode with the solar panels it works fine as far as I can tell, but it’s telling me to use the wired mode and then the setup locks up on WiFi.

    Good question, @Bhendricks! You are correct to have used the Solar Panel in battery power mode. Although you can always change your power mode, when using a battery/ Solar Panel in wired mode, the battery will drain very quickly. Feel free to check out our [help center article](https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/360045463592-Changing-power-modes-on-your-Ring-Stick-Up-Cam-3rd-generation-) about power modes for more tips on best use scenarios. I hope this helps! :)
