Battery for outdoor camera still charging after 10 hours.
I just got my outdoor camera, plugged the battery to charge -- and it has been already 10 hours and the 2nd diode is still flashing. The paperwork and online info says it would take 5 hours.
I use the same AC-to-USB - A charger that I use for my phone. The phone charges within 60 minutes. I use the short USB-A to USB Micro B cable that came with the battery. So the charger is good.
Any suggestions?

OK, finally after 11 hours the battery is charged.
So I see the need for a spare battery or a solar panel charger. You do not want to have a single battery that leaves the system disabled for that long...

Hi @nahum,
It certainly should not take 11 hours for the Outdoor Camera's battery to charge, and using the power adapter that you use for your phone should be more than sufficient. The next time you need to charge the battery, I would try using a different outlet to see if that was the issue.
