What happens here
After the charging cable is connected, ensure the Blink camera is turned on. There is typically a switch on the side of the camera for this purpose; quickly toggle it to the 'on' position. Crucially, the manufacturer of the solar panel suggests removing any batteries from inside the Blink camera itself when using a solar panel charger. This is to prevent any potential damage to the camera or the batteries from overcharging or conflicting power sources.
Goal: Activate the camera and prepare it for solar charging by removing internal batteries.
