Keeping your outdoors secured doesn’t have to be a hassle. The most convenient security cameras are the ones that don’t require complicated installation or batteries to keep going. These usually pair with a small solar panel to stay powered. If you own one or are planning to pick one up, Amazon is currently offering a 1.9W solar panel for Ring cameras for less.

It usually goes for $40, but a nice 20% discount has now dropped the price to just $32. The offer applies to both white and black color options. Note that the retailer has marked the discount as a limited-time one, so it’s likely to wrap up soon. It’s best to place your orders without wasting time!

Wide Compatibility

This tiny solar panel uses the same upgraded solar tech as Ring’s larger panels, but in a much smaller frame. Setup is pretty straightforward. The included 6.5-inch cable lets you comfortably position the panel in an ideal sunlight spot without feeling tied to the camera. Plus, even when it’s installed in place, you’ll still have the option to rotate and tilt it, so you get the best angle throughout the day. This is especially great for cloudy days, where the sun is trying to play hide and seek!

Once it’s up, the solar panel keeps your camera running smoothly with just a few hours of direct sunlight each day. Compatibility is just as impressive, as it plays nicely with a bunch of Ring’s wireless cameras, including Outdoor Cam Plus, Outdoor Cam (Stick Up Cam), Stick Up Cam Pro, Spotlight Cam Plus, and Spotlight Cam Pro. There’s also a USB-C to Barrel plug adapter included, which means the solar panel is backwards compatible with older models like the Ring Outdoor Cam (Stick Up Cam) and Spotlight Cam Battery.

Included in the box are the solar panel with a USB-C cable, an adjustable mounting base with cable management, a USB-C to Barrel plug adapter, mounting screws with anchors, cable clips, and a user guide.

You can now grab the Ring small solar panel for just $32, down from $40. That’s thanks to a 20% discount that saves you a nice $8. But again, note that the offer won’t be around for long. We highly recommend grabbing it now if you want to avoid paying the full price later. Both colors are discounted, so you pick the one that matches your Ring camera.
