Wireless Outdoor Camera Not Charging

I charged my camera for a week before installing it. When I went to put it up today, the camera was lost at 2 percent! Any ideas what that’s about?

    Hey everyone,

    If your Roku Outdoor Camera isn't charging properly, here are a few things to check:

    • Confirm charging source: Ensure the camera is plugged directly into the Roku Base Station using the provided cable.
    • Allow for full charge: Turn off the camera while charging for at least 4 hours.
    • Try a different cable: If possible, use a different Micro USB cable.

    If the camera flashes red but the app shows 0% battery:

    • Repair the camera with the Base Station.
    • Update the camera firmware to the latest version.
    • Manually switch the camera on/off using the power switch.

    If the issue persists:

    • Start a new thread in the Community.
    • Contact Roku Support for assistance and provide the App Log ID:
      1. In the Roku Smart Home app, go to Account > Roku Support > Submit a Log.
      2. Choose Outdoor Camera > Battery Performance.
      3. Fill out the details, check "Send log files," and tap "Submit."

    We hope this helps!
