I might have 4-5 instances in a year where our weekly drop off the grid to generator power and back again mucks with the camera just right to keep it from coming back on.

In short: If you keep them powered up they keep trucking.

I have seen one of them flake out after 3 years of service though. Some days it would work and some not.

The issues I have had have all been their IP configuration somehow getting screwed up. We lost our camera halfway through last year due to this, with no discernible cause. We were not able to get it working again, despite the aid of several CSA's and multiple hours of dedicated effort.
