We have two Arlo Pro 2 cameras. I would like to get the Arlo camera that also has a light. Will it operate through the base station that we are currently using? Or will it require a separate base station?

Cheaper getting yourself some solar PIR lights, will have far better light. .

@anent We have a solar powered motion detector light on the side of our house. It puts out a lot of light! Purchased at WalMart for $15. The area I’m looking at needs both a motion detector light and a camera.

Depends the area you want light up? Its only a small light built into the camera. Would another pro 2 camera and another light out of walmart be cheaper and put out more light?

@anent Great video! I’m thinking another Pro 2 and a WalMart light may work just fine for us.
