Whether the battery level increases depends on a balance between power consumption and charging input. Here are two common situations explain why the camera battery level might not increase:

• High activity while charging: If the camera is frequently recording during charging, power consumption can exceed the charging rate, preventing battery gain.

• Insufficient solar input: During cloudy or low‑sunlight conditions, the solar panel may not generate enough power to offset even the camera’s standby energy use.
