If your Ring solar panel is not charging, you&rsquo;re putting yourself at risk for camera outages. The Ring solar panel is designed to charge whenever it is exposed to sunlight. However, you can run into some issues.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>First, check and make sure that your solar panel is installed in an area that gets plenty of sun. If there are obstructions in the way, your Ring solar panel could just be suffering from not getting the required amount of sunlight to function properly.&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If your Ring solar panel is in an area that has good sun exposure, it might have been installed incorrectly. You should detach your solar panel and ensure that there are no foreign objects that could be causing issues. Also, check to make sure that the wires have no breaks or are not connected. When reconnecting your Ring solar panel, double-check not only the health of the wires but also that they are connected to the intended ports.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If the problem continues to persist, you could have a defective solar panel. If your panel is still not charging when your battery power drops below 90% and is not being detected under your Ring &lsquo;Health&rsquo; settings, the best option is to replace your solar panel entirely. Before reaching this conclusion, you should also try moving your solar panel somewhere else to make sure that the problem is not related to a light obstruction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ring Solar Panel Not Connected<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" src=\"https:\/\/solarpowergenie.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Solar-Ring-Solar-Panel-Not-Working-3.jpg\" alt=\"Solar powered camera\" class=\"wp-image-1030\" srcset=\"https:\/\/solarpowergenie.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Solar-Ring-Solar-Panel-Not-Working-3.jpg 640w, https:\/\/solarpowergenie.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Solar-Ring-Solar-Panel-Not-Working-3-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/solarpowergenie.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Solar-Ring-Solar-Panel-Not-Working-3-335x224.jpg 335w, https:\/\/solarpowergenie.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Solar-Ring-Solar-Panel-Not-Working-3-347x232.jpg 347w, https:\/\/solarpowergenie.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Solar-Ring-Solar-Panel-Not-Working-3-520x347.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\"><\/noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" src=\"https:\/\/solarpowergenie.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Solar-Ring-Solar-Panel-Not-Working-3.jpg.webp\" alt=\"Solar powered camera\" class=\"wp-image-1030 lazyload\" srcset=\"https:\/\/solarpowergenie.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Solar-Ring-Solar-Panel-Not-Working-3.jpg.webp 640w, https:\/\/solarpowergenie.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Solar-Ring-Solar-Panel-Not-Working-3-300x200.jpg.webp 300w, https:\/\/solarpowergenie.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Solar-Ring-Solar-Panel-Not-Working-3-335x224.jpg.webp 335w, https:\/\/solarpowergenie.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Solar-Ring-Solar-Panel-Not-Working-3-347x232.jpg.webp 347w, https:\/\/solarpowergenie.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Solar-Ring-Solar-Panel-Not-Working-3-520x347.jpg.webp 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/solarpowergenie.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Solar-Ring-Solar-Panel-Not-Working-3.jpg\" id=\"mv-trellis-img-3\" data-trellis-processed=\"1\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>You can check to see if your Ring solar panel is connected by entering the &lsquo;Settings&rsquo; menu. Once there, find the section labeled &lsquo;Health&rsquo;. Your Ring solar panel will be listed as &lsquo;Connected&rsquo; or &lsquo;Not Connected&rsquo;. However, while it may be your first thought, this does not mean that there is an issue with your Ring solar panel.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Your Ring camera battery is designed to produce the longest battery life possible. The more frequently your battery gets charged, the shorter the lifespan will be. Your solar panel is designed to begin charging the battery once it drops below 90%.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Even though your solar panel is functioning properly, your Ring will show that it is not connected. However, like with all technology, you can run into some unexpected glitches. On average, if your Ring is not connecting and your battery charge is low, restarting your ring can fix the problem.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Press and hold your Ring&rsquo;s &lsquo;Setup&rsquo; button for around 20 seconds. After 20 seconds, wait for about a minute. After a minute, your Ring camera should automatically reboot. Enter the &lsquo;Settings&rsquo; menu and ensure that the solar panel says &lsquo;Connected&rsquo;.<\/p><p>This article is owned by SolarPowerGenie.com and was first published on November 29, 2021<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Always make sure that your Ring camera software is up-to-date.

The reason that the terminology may have changed since you installed your Ring is due to a recent update.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>If you see &lsquo;Not Established&rsquo; under your Ring&rsquo;s &lsquo;Health&rsquo; settings, you should take the same steps as if your Ring solar panel was labeled as &lsquo;Not Connected&rsquo;. Anytime you install an update, your system can take a little bit of time to recognize it. As a general rule, after an update, you should restart your Ring camera system.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If your problem still persists, you should then look to manually troubleshoot your Ring solar panel. When it comes to outdoor technology, you always run the risk of an unintended obstruction either blocking your solar panel or causing an issue within the system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can also try uninstalling and reinstalling the app itself.
