I'm wondering if anyone can help me out with a problem I've been having with my Stealth Cam STC-WD3.

When I bought the camera, it was brand new in the package...worked fine in my apartment for a week or more, and I decided to put it up for a couple weeks until I had time to take it out to the woods. When I finally got there, it indicated low battery--and has done so ever since. I've tried 3 different sets of "C" batteries, as well as the 12 volt external attachment...nada. The camera powers on for 5-10 seconds, then goes dead.

I'm guessing that there is something with the wiring, but Stealth Cam is refusing to stand behind their warranty, so I'm in a pretty good pickle, any help would be great!!!
