Spot Light Cam Power Issue or Camera issue?

Hi All, I know this issue has been documented but i cant find any thread with same problem i am having. Spot light camera installed, it has 1 removable battery that came with it and the hardwired kit. Hardwired kit installed and mains power outputting to the usb connector. Camera looks to be working fine and no errors on app. About a week later i get a notification requesting to reconnect mains power, i did nothing and the power seemed to return. Initially thought an odd blip and no cause for concern. All is fine for another 2 or 3 weeks but now it is disconnecting from power daily, there is no issue with main power in my home and i cant believe there is any issue with the install as if there was it would not be outputting power from the first day. When i open app i can see the camera is drawing from the built in battery, and i see an error on the picture of the camera telling me please reconnect power. If i reboot the camera it comes back to life now receiving power and then the battery begins charging again. The fact it begins taking mains power after a reboot would indicate and further prove there is no issue with install or any connections either with the hard wired kit or from the usb to the rear of the camera. Has anyone had this issue, my camera is approx 6 weeks old, did i get a lemon? Thanks for any help.
