I’ve given up on the stick up Cam and I’ve given up on using the Battery Spotlight Cam with a power adapter. I’ve got Battery Cams and solar panels set up at two houses. Going on the 2nd year now and all of them work beautifully. I don’t have the energy to deal with it anymore. I’m purchasing a wired Spotlight Cam. If it doesn’t charge right out of the box I’ll consider a different line of cameras for indoors.
