Background and Identification
This add-on Arlo security camera, model VMC 3030 is provided by Netgear. These cameras have been manufactured since 2015. In 2018 Arlo became a separate company from Netgear and since then, they no longer display the Netgear logo on their products. This allows the consumer to determine that they possess a later model by the presence of the logo Netgear embedded on the left and right side of the case on the camera.
These are small devices with rounded edges and about the size of a fist. The device comes with four rechargeable Arlo manufactured batteries. It has a 90-day software warranty and a one-year hardware warranty. The device contains infrared LED lights, motion sensors, a camera lens, and a magnetic mount. The camera has an advertised 300ft recording range under ideal circumstances. It can operate outside in rain or shine between temperatures of 15 degrees and 120 degrees Fahrenheit. When the camera is activated, it records video and sends a notification through email or the app. The recordings are then available on the cloud for seven days after notification.
