Chuck,
Glad to see you over here my friend. I own two I-40s. The battery life is about 4-5 months. While the trigger time might not be as fast as some, putting out a little food can completely cure that situation. I agree with the other poster who suggested logging onto
www.chasingame.com for information on about any camera. Also, when you are ready to purchase, I highly recommend talking to Rich at
www.trailcampro.com. His customer service is out of this world. If you want further info on about any cam, PM me. I have spent way too much time researshing this subject.
Blessings.....Pastorjim
