I figured it was operator error, but it's not. I put the energizer lithium batteries in it 2 weeks ago had a couple pics of me after it was setup and noyhing else. When I walked up to it today it didnt take any pics. When I opened it up the batteries were totally dead.
All the cameras soaked the same amount of time, and battery life was good.
Any one else have this problem?
Oh yea the 35mm I bought at walmart for $60 in 2006 and it still works great.

I have 2 trophy cams 2 tascos and one 35mm. The first trophy cam works great. This is the 2nd winter and its still working well. The Tascos. I dont expect much from, but they are doing fine also. The other trophy cam is the 8 pix and it sucks!This is crazy because I was going to start this exact thread with my 8 pix trophy cam, the one with the lcd screen. I've only been doing one week soaks, the first time I put it out on (not very) old batteries and came back a week later and just had set up pics and the batteries were dead. So I put 8 off brand batteries my brother had and four energizers I had (all new) in it and another week later exact same thing. So now I'm confused, thought ok its a coincidence, first time old batteries, second time crappy but new batteries, so then i go buy 12 brand new energizers and put them in last weekend, then checked it this Saturday and the exact same thing nothing but set up pics on the first day and all batteries are dead. Soooo this Saturday night I went and bought 12 Ultra lithium batteries and put them in it, and bought a Tasko cam. I hiked in today and set up the Tasko but decided screw the bushnell and brought back it home and was going to start this thread. Obviously I'm having the exact same problem. Oh and there was tons of tracks in the snow going right by my cam but no pics, I payed a pile for it and now wish I bought 5 Taskos instead.

The owners manual say it might be a problem with the SD card, can this be the problem?
