Ring Solar Panel 2nd Generation 4W for Outdoor Cameras — USB-C, Adjustable Mount, Black

The Ring Solar Panel (2nd Generation) 4W is a weather-ready solar charger that keeps compatible Ring outdoor cameras powered by converting sunlight into a steady trickle charge.

Designed for backyard cameras and pole- or wall-mounted systems, this updated 4W panel uses improved solar cells and a built-in USB-C connector so your Ring Outdoor Cam Plus, Stick Up Cam Pro, Spotlight Cam Plus, and Spotlight Cam Pro run longer between battery charges. The kit includes a USB-C to barrel adapter for older Ring models, a flexible adjustable mount, cable management, and hardware for straightforward outdoor installation.

How does this solar panel extend camera runtime?

The upgraded panel delivers up to 60% faster charging than the previous generation by using higher-efficiency solar components. It supplies a continuous low-voltage charge that offsets power draw from motion, live view, and night recording so cameras need fewer manual battery recharges.

• 4W solar output tuned for Ring outdoor cameras
• Faster charging keeps batteries topped in good sunlight
• Continuous trickle-charge reduces manual charging frequency
• Includes adapter for legacy Ring devices

Will it work with my Ring camera models?

This second-generation panel is compatible directly with Outdoor Cam Plus, Ring Stick Up Cam Pro, Spotlight Cam Plus, and Spotlight Cam Pro via the built-in USB-C cable. For older Ring Outdoor Cam (Stick Up Cam) 2nd/3rd Gen and Spotlight Cam Battery, the included USB-C to barrel plug adapter provides backwards compatibility.

• Built-in USB-C connector for newer Ring cameras
• USB-C to barrel adapter for older Ring models included
• 6.5 ft (2 m) cable lets you position the panel separately from the camera
• Works best with at least 2–3 hours of direct sunlight daily

How do I mount and position the panel for best performance?

The solar panel ships with an adjustable arm that rotates a full 360° and tilts 180°, giving wide flexibility to catch sun angles throughout the year. Built-in cable management and included mounting screws, anchors, and cable clips simplify a tidy outdoor installation on siding, eaves, poles, or fence posts.

• Adjustable arm for precise sun-facing angle
• 360° rotation and 180° tilt for seasonal adjustment
• Mounting hardware and cable clips included for easy setup
• 6.5 ft cable with built-in management keeps wires neat

What should I expect from real-world charging and maintenance?

Performance depends on location, shading, and weather. In sunny climates the panel can significantly reduce how often you remove and recharge camera batteries; in shaded or northern exposures expect reduced solar gain and plan for occasional manual charging.

• Ring recommends 2–3 hours of direct sunlight per day for optimal results
• Weather-resistant construction for outdoor use
• Periodic cleaning of the panel surface keeps output high
• No complex wiring—plug-and-play with provided connectors and adapter

Who is this for: The Ring Solar Panel (2nd Generation) 4W is ideal for homeowners, renters, and small business owners who use Ring outdoor battery cameras and want a low-maintenance way to reduce manual recharging. It’s a good fit if your camera sees regular sunlight and you prefer a simple, weatherproof accessory that installs with basic tools and keeps your security system running longer between charges.
