BATTERY LIFE
Long battery life is one of the most important requirements for convenient and enjoyable game camera use.
There are several variables that will determine the battery life including type of batteries, temperature outside,
recording settings, frequency of camera activity, etc. Colder temperatures, more advanced settings, night
photos and high photo frequency (low camera delay) will result in shorter battery life. Different brands of
batteries may also perform better than others, so please experiment to find what works best for you. (NOTE:
Capturing video clips and time lapse videos uses more power and will result in shorter battery life then capture
motion detected photos.)
EXAMPLES:
- Camera in standby mode with limited record activity may produce up to 1 year battery life.
- Camera with a lot of day activity in mild climate may produce tens of thousands of photos
on one set of AA batteries.
- Time Lapse 1 minute Interval mode may only result in 15-20 day battery life using 8 AA batteries
and 25-30 day battery life for Time Lapse 2 minute Interval mode.
- Setting the camera for video mode can greatly lower the battery life if videos are captured at
night when iR LEDs are illuminated. If night video capture is required, setting the video length
for 5 or 10 seconds is recommended to maximize battery life.
- Do not mix old and new batteries
- Do not mix battery types-use ALL lithium or ALL alkaline
