Today’s best Arlo Essential Spotlight deal in the UK
Arlo Essential Spotlight camera:£129.99£97.50 at AmazonIn the UK, the saving on the home security camera is a little bigger – it’s been reduced by £32.49 to £97.50, which is a 25% saving. Like other Arlo home security cameras, it can be mains powered or battery operated and records FullHD footage.
The Arlo Essential Spotlight camera has a built-in LED so footage in is in color both during the day and at night, and it supports two-way audio so you can remotely converse with anyone in its field of view.
However, unlike other Arlo cameras, the battery isn’t removable so the weather-proof camera will be out of action when it needs charging. Arlo says the battery will last up to six months between charges, but this will depend upon how often motion is detected, how many times the spotlight is triggered, the amount of time spent viewing footage through Live View, and whether the two-way microphone and speaker are used.
