This includes an adjustable mounting bracket, a screwdriver, a drill bit and one installation screws and anchors.
While this shouldn’t be an issue in the UK, it should be noted that the maximum operating temperature is 48 degrees Celsius.
Be sure not to have it in places that can get extremely hot in a heatwave, especially since some parts of the country experienced 40 degree heat last summer.
But remember to keep it in view of sunlight.
One happy customer called the accessory a “game changer” when it comes to keeping their Ring device going.

“I am very surprised and pleased with the difference that this made. I was hesitant to spend the money when I already had a battery that I could charge, but this is well worth it.”
Another said they had to buy the solar attachment due to the battery drainage.
“The solar definitely works, not as often do I need to update the battery,” they added.
