Power adapter for spotlight cam won't connect to camera

I just purchased a spotlight cam and solar panel from Woot. The included USB-C to barrel plug adapter does not fit into the power port on the camera -- it goes in partially but won't go all the way. The camera identifies in the device details as "Spotlight Cam Battery." I don't know if this is just the wrong adapter or if there's a physical problem with the power port on the camera. Anyone know if there are different size adapters for different models of spotlight cams? There is no USB-C port on the camera, sadly. Thanks.

    Hi @user_46bd2d. Does it specify if this is a Spotlight Cam Plus or Pro? Or does it only say Spotlight Cam? The original Spotlight Cam has a barrel plug, while the newer models have a USB-C port for the solar panel instead. If your Spotlight Cam has a barrel plug, the USB-C to barrel plug adapter should work.
