SOLAR PANEL USAGE ON MOULTRIE’S 2007 CAMERAS

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE JUNE 1, 2007

SOLAR PANEL USAGE ON MOULTRIE’S 2007 CAMERA

(AFFECTS I-60, I-40, M-60, M-40, D-40, DGW4.0,

AND CABELA’S MODELS CDC5.0, CDC5.0V)

Recent publications have misstated the option of using solar panels with Moultrie’s new 2007 camera line. Moultrie cameras requiring D-cell batteries are not compatible with any type of solar panel, including the Moultrie brand solar panel.

Forums, websites and publications have misinformed readers to install rechargeable batteries in order to use a solar charger, this statement is also false.

To achieve extended battery life Moultrie only suggests using the 12-volt external power port option available on all 2007 camera models (as listed above).

Moultrie stands behind its newest camera technology and customers can expect exceptionally long battery life with current use of D-cell batteries. Please contact our customer service department with any questions, (800) 653-3334.

Thanks for sharing this info with us. I myself was thinking where is the rechargable battery and solor panel info for these new 2007 cams? I wanted a new one since mine is the old 1.3 mp 6 volt camera, but now, I'll hold off until Moultrie goes back to rechargeble batteries and solor panel connections, or I won't buy their cams any more. LOL.

I have the new I-40. In the field for 3 weeks, 687 pictures, and the battery life is 98 percent.
At this rate, you don't need rechargable batteries!

98% after 687 pics during 3 weeks? If this is true, then Moultrie is going to sell a ton of these cams. That would be about 6 months of battery life...
