Default For those of you with stealth cams

Just thought I would post this to let others know what kind of batteries I've had success with. I had my MC2-G out for 22 days using Rayovac Maximum plus batteries and they were still going when I went to change them. There were only 36 activations on them though.
I'll have pics when I get them developed. That is if they aren't all of weeds.

Thanks for the tip. Rayovac are usually pretty expensive as well are they not?

I found the Rayovacs about mid way through last season. They workedd as well if not better than the Duracell Ultras or the Energizer Max and they are cheaper than both. Make sure you get the Rayovac Maximum Plus. They are silver with black and blue on them.

Dose anyone use a digital stealth cam? I'm expecting mine to arrive this week and was wondering about batteries. I've heard the digital cam are hogs when it comes to batteries. I might just get rechargeables as they will be cheaper over the long hall. If it arrive tonight I'll probably just put it out now and try the Rayovac.

Any suggestions?

I usually buy a pack 18 from Walmart for around 6 bucks I think.

I have had mine out for over 2 months before I had to change out the batteries.
I am using the Duracel's.

Been looking at the digital stealth cam with rechargables and the solar charger for it but really cant justify the cost

I hear you Ausie. I've considered the solar panel as well but thought it would stand out too much. I hope to hide the cam well so It won't disappear. If it dose I'd rather be out 240$ instead of 350$.

I know it's too much to ask but I sure do wish we lived in an honest world.[:'(]
