Argus Eco got water in it after the first rain

Is this common for this model? I just put this up at a remote location five miles away a few weeks ago and it has water in it.

Your customer service is not good if you want me to forward this problem to someone else. You should be doing that, and your engineers and techs should be reading the problems at this forum. Once again, I had to drive 5 miles to the camera location with a ladder and remove the camera and bring it home. When I opened the cover to remove the SD card, water poured out. I'll be returning it through Amazon, and I already have a new one to replace it.

@email_525317533946102 Steve, she asked you to take it up with the support so that they will investigate further and will definitely ask you to return it to them. This may lead to improve adhesion process during manufacturing. We apologise for the inconvenience but appreciate if you email the support. Thanks.

I participate in several "community forums" for various products and have observed similar confusion on most of them. Customers assume that the forum includes company engineering and support staff, whereas the company intended the forum to be a convenient way for customers to communicate between themselves. (Rather than, for example, set up a forum on Reddit or snbforums that has no participation by the company at all.) Reolink's forum appears to be a combination (mostly intended for customers, but with some employee participation as well.)

Reolink's link to Support on the web home page directs to this page: support(dot)reolink(dot)com/hc/en-us/ (This editor does not allow URLs even though it has the URL symbol on the edit menu).

(I presume that in other countries the link will be to language specific pages.)

Please note that I (personally) think that manufacturers would be better off to assign staff to monitor their community forums:

• To be aware of "hot" or trending topics
• To deal with issues such as this.
