Title: Batterys don't last on my STEATHCAM(Looking for a new one any HELP)
Post by: bear hunter on September 21, 2013, 06:45:37 PM: I used it twice and it only lasts 5 days and 2 pictures then dead. It takes 6C battery's and costs me to much to run. I had it out for 2 weeks but that was not with the trip to Lopez to find only 2 pic's. I need help on one under 150.00 and lasts more than 2 weeks. PLEAS HELP LOL

Post by: threedwizard on September 21, 2013, 10:07:13 PM: I've been using the Covert cams. Fast trigger, great battery life and good photos. My last soak was 2 months, one camera took over 1100 pictures! Try the MP6, gets good reviews and Wing Supply has it for $120.

Post by: bullseeker on September 24, 2013, 08:28:43 PM: I have 6 different stealth cams and some take c batteries and some take the aa batteries. They all last at least a month plus and get 500 to 1000 pics. They don't last as well in the winter but still get a lot of pics. Which model stealth cam do you have? Might need to send it back to the factory to get fixed.

Post by: Thefisherman83 on October 01, 2013, 12:42:09 PM: My stealth cam Sniper started doing that after a year or so of use. Pretty disappointing for a $200+ camera. I run wildgame's now, so far so good.

Post by: ironhead14 on October 09, 2013, 06:18:14 PM: Cuddeback is the only one. Long battery life, works in sub zero weather, fast trigger speed. The initial price seems high but mine has never missed a beat for 5 years!
