Ring Security Cameras
Received replacement camera. Solar charge doesn't connect!
Hi. My Gen1 stickup camera was replaced under maintenance/warranty with Gen3. Was told it would work with my solar charger. Unfortunately mine is micro USB. New is barrel connector. Can you send an adapter or a new panel? Also, old one never "saw" the panel. How do you get the camera to "see" the charger so it stops trying to sell me one?!? Thanks!

Yeah... 45 minutes plus hold times, no ability to leave a message or request a call back, short loop music and marketing the whole time. Not my idea of a good time to fix your representative's mistake! Thanks!

Good one, thanks. Yeah, had to send images so may have had access to emails. Endured the hold times running many errands along the way. Had to send image of panel but new one was approved. Replacement camera and keypads installed though the "old devices will automatically be removed" thing did not happen. Once new panel arrives and I return failed/obsolete items all will be good again. In my experience with other vendors this might be considered a "new case" and may or may not be something which can be done by email or a "call me" request. Dunno!
