Ring Security Cameras
Security Cam Randomly Flash Spotlights
Our security cam is randomly turning the spotlights on (for a second or two) periodically through the night. Even though the lights are off on the settings. Does anyone know why this is? It shouldn’t be happening as most people want security devices to be discreet.

Thanks Marley, I’ve doubled check all the light related settings and made sure it’s turned off. I have an indoor camera (different brand) which has been catching the events which show evidence of it happening. Can I send you the video?

Here you can see it. If you look where the dog is pointing towards you’ll see a glass door. Outside the door is our security cam but you can see the flash of light. This happens very often maybe every hour or so.

My wired spotlight cam recently started doing this as well camera works fine but lights are hosed. Reset and reconnected still won’t work and it has not been that cold here recently either.

I have noticed my wired spotlight cam light is turning on randomly at night when there are no events - I have the lights deselected on the device but notice that if I then go back into devices it has been selected again - it’s as if the app is not remembering my preferences - firmware says up to date - any suggestions
