Nest Cam Battery Users Concerned Over Cold Weather Performance

In 2019, Google decided to completely embrace Nest and integrated the company into their Home division. A few months ago, Google updated the Nest lineup and launched Nest Cam Battery and Nest Doorbell Battery.

While the upgrades were appreciated by many, users have reported several technical issues such as the recent issue where Nest Cam and Doorbell owners were getting ‘can’t connect to assisting device’ error during setup.

As it turns out, Google Nest Cam Battery and Doorbell Battery users are now expressing their concern over the product’s performance in cold weather.

While Google says Nest Doorbell can operate in temperatures up to -20 degrees Celsius or -4 degrees Fahrenheit, it looks like some devices are going offline or not working properly due to extreme temperatures.

For others, the battery on the Nest Doorbell is draining in just a few days. Some also say that even though the devices say ‘plugged in’, the battery still drains.

This is really weird since Google claims the battery will last somewhere between 45 days to seven months. It is a really serious issue since many said they bought the device to keep tabs on their home.

Another user shared their experience with the Nest Cam Battery in sub-zero temperature.

Many are now wondering if Google tested the Nest Cam Battery and Nest Doorbell in cold weather before launching them.

Unfortunately, since Google is yet to comment on the matter, it is still unclear what is causing the Nest Cam Battery and Nest Doorbell Battery to go offline. Nonetheless, we will be keeping an active track of developments on this one and update this article as and when required so make sure you stay tuned.
