Like most smart cameras, the Ring Stick Up Cam is limited to a 2.4 GHz connection on the outdated 802.11n, or Wi-Fi 4, standard. That said, should you find yourself regretful about having purchased the battery-powered version, Ring does sell kits to convert the camera to solar-powered or wired. Ring offers no specific battery life claims, only that it can go months between charges during normal use, and as far as I can tell from my subsequent tests, that is likely true. After inquiring with Ring, I was told by a representative that what I experienced was the camera self-calibrating, and that the problem was likely an inaccurate reading and that over a few recharge cycles, accuracy should increase. I had initial problems with battery life - the camera’s charge had dropped to 36% within three days, but thereafter began behaving normally.

I actually got to put that to the test when the Stick Up Cam Battery caught someone trying to open a window on the back of my house, about a week into testing. How they each approach this task varies massively, but the end result should always be that the people who buy them feel safer. The third-generation Ring Stick Up Cam Battery joins an increasingly crowded field of affordable, battery-operated, WiFi-connected cameras, where names big and small are pushing out little white plastic tubes and boxes designed to intelligently sense, capture, and categorize unusual activity outside your home.
