Awesome
Great product, and it worked with my ring. Easy setup

Works as designed
It was easy to hook up and seems to be working so far. My Ring is at my gate and I had access to the rear USB port so it was easy to plug in. Standard installations may not have access to the rear of the Ring.

Works great with several camera brands.
Note, I intend to edit this review several months down the road as the weather changes.Two LITTLE things keeping this little gem from 5 stars for me:1. The USB-C and mini-USB adapter cables could use a little O-ring or a little one-shot of silicone sealant in the package, to be applied when attaching to the camera. Most of these outdoor cams have a little O-ring around the connector hole, but not all of the connectors of these panels fit that snug to keep water out. Just one more thing to make the whole experience perfect. I simply used a little silicone sealant around the outer plastic of the connector when inserting into the camera. The adapter-to-main-cable junction is solid and hasn't leaked as is.2. A removable cable on the panel itself so that I can replace with something shorter if I don't need 9+ feet of cable.First the BAD:1. The mount. This is NOT a deal breaker, and likely trivial to some: I really don't like that the tightening ring is so small. Might be fine for most, but with my hands, being that small means I have to use pliers to get a grip, even to "hand tighten". Additionally with the ball being small and metal and the pressure point being small and plastic, I worry about what the weather will do to it. I've found that the best "ball joint" mounts for these smaller panels, in harsher weather, have either plastic on plastic or metal on silicone. Additionally the tightening ring has more diameter and/or "wings" to make it easier to grip by hand.OK, on to the good stuff:1. The mount is the "threaded rod on a ball joint" type. It is comparable to all the other ball-joint mounts with the standard threads. In fact, for this eval I remove an existing panel, and re-used it's mount. This panel fit perfectly. It's solid and works perfectly (save for the personal opinion noted above). Anyway, the threaded rod/ball joint combo means you can angle the panel as needed. Some of the other small panels I've tried 'clip' into the mount with a small plastic tab the only security, and/or they adjust only on 1 plane, and/or are made entirely of thin plastic.2. Charge performance: Under an Autumn sun in the lower US latitudes, it added 15% to the battery of a Wyze Battery Cam Pro in just over two hours, and it added 13% battery to a Eufy E40 in the same timeframe (previous day). Even as the sun gets lower going into Winter, I'm expecting this won't have a problem topping off the battery and keeping it charged. I use the live view of my cams pretty often, so we'll see.3. Weather resistance: It rained HARD all night. The panel started adding to the camera battery as soon as the sun peaked out this morning. Upon inspection the little panel was still wet, and was charging the battery.4. Size. Of all the panels I've tried, this is the smallest in the 5W range. I wasn't expecting it to perform this well, to be honest. I'm really happy with the size/performance.5. Maintenance. So small a simple wipe of the panel would take one second, if/when needed.So first impressions are that it's a quality panel, with a quality mount and adapters. Just needs some tweaking.

DEFINITELY worth buying!
I ordered this solar panel to replace a Wasserstein one with less than half the wattage. my backyard Ring camera kept dying whenever the weather dropped too low.I am so glad I upgraded. I have had zero problems with this solar panel. it never dies on me anymore and I can even have more of the settings turned on that drain the battery. it supports it 100%! It’s also smaller, skinnier and nicer looking than the old solar panel. not that it matters all that much.I wasn’t entirely confident when purchasing this, but I didn’t want to spend so much money on Ring’s version, so I gave it a try.If you’re on the fence about it, GET IT. you will not regret it.

Good but does not work with ring cam Pro
I bought it after reading the reviews only but unfortunately it did not work with my spotlight ring cam Pro. I did everything like updating the latest software, deregister and then re-register the device again but nothing worked. Camera doesn't recognise this solar panel as a source. I then used official ring solar panel and camera recognised it without any issues.
