Still very impressed with that camera Darren. One thing I noticed was that it had 9 pics in the same minute. That's very fast. Keep those great pics coming.

I am a little confused after checking them today tho. I got 70 some pics this time. Something happened after the first 24 hours, and it stopped taking pics, but the camera batteries were still plenty good. The last pic I got was on the 3rd, and over half of the corn was still there. 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.

They are from a homebrew I just finished. I used a Sony P32 for a camera, and the rest is a kit from Yeti.

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.

Darren, nice pics again. As far as batteries buy a good charger and some Sanyo Eneloops batteries. You will get alot of charges off of them.
