RE: new Cuddeback - don't tell me I'm gonna have problems with it too
If you can get to your camera easily keep trying different things and test it to see if it is picking you up as well. These electronic gadgets seem to do funny things sometimes. Move it up and down that tree and see how it goes. Did you shoot all of the tall deer this season???
I often have more than one camera out at a feeder and notice that sometimes the better cameras get more pictures with the same delay than the other cameras. I can't really explain this though but it has happened with the Cuddeback.
I have a 12 volt rechargeable battery with my Stealth as well and got about two weeks the first time and then only a few days here in the house. I'm trying it again, in fact it will take my picture when I get up to go to bed here in a couple of minutes. Although not until I'm a good ways down the hallway.
Keep experimenting with that Cuddeback and let us know what happens.
