I've noticed when the camera wakes up to record an event, a few seconds into the recording the video will flicker, as in briefly blank out and return, and adjust exposure. Kind of like a camera switching from Night mode to Daytime mode, but night mode was never switched on (color before the black out and color after).


Sometimes the event is so short the whole flicker will ruin a good part of the useful video.
 
I have my wireless doorbell installed to the existing wiring. Anyone else have this issue? I have sample video as well. VAC measured at 13V at the doorbell. 

Happens so frequently I can see the flash in a few of the history thumbnails.
