Today the 5th, the corn was gone. So for some reason, there were no pics taken the last day and a half. I am not sure if it is the 9volt for the board or what. I cant believe the 9 volt would be dead after only being out a couple of days.
Darren, something I forgot to mention in our discussions on homebrews. Don't use alkaline batteries in the camera. You need to use recharchables or lithiums. Also, if you have externals that are alkalines, DO NOT USE LITHIUMS in the camera. You cannot mix lithiums and alkalines. This will cause major problems. If you have externals that are alkaline, you need to use rechargables in the camera. As far as the 9v running your board, you should get about 4 months out of that depending on your picture count.
