How to Recharge the Outdoor Security Camera Series 2 Battery

The Outdoor Security Camera Series 2 has a rechargeable battery that lasts up to 3 months depending on settings and usage. If you plan on using your Outdoor Security Camera Series 2 with SimpliSafe® Active Guard Outdoor Protection, you will need to plug your camera into power using the outdoor power cable.

To remove the battery, simply untwist the front of the camera off of your Outdoor Camera Series 2. Then, use the pull tab on the battery to gently remove it from the battery compartment.

To charge your battery, you’ll need a USB power brick that supports 5V, 1.5A+ (7.5W+) charging. Using the supplied cable, plug the battery into the power brick to charge your battery. To fully charge your battery, it can take up to 6 hours. You’ll know the battery is fully charged once all 3 lights are illuminated and no longer pulsing.

To replace your battery, slide it back into the battery compartment in the Outdoor Camera Series 2 with the 3 gold circles on the battery facing up and the battery’s tab facing outwards. Then, twist the cap back onto the Outdoor Camera Series 2 clockwise until you hear it click.

You’ll know that your Outdoor Camera Series 2 has been assembled properly once it makes a high-pitched chime.
