Battery Performance
Because camera settings, subject activity, individual battery performance and
temperature all vary, there is no way to precisely predict a camera’s
run time, the total
number of images that can be taken, or the temperature at which the camera will
operate on any given set of batteries. Therefore, the following table shows
approximate values
to be used as a guide in determining what type of batteries will
best suit your needs.
If your Camera is in an area where it is not seeing a lot of activity and subsequently is
not sending a lot of photos, it may run for 6 months or more. Run time is very heavily
impacted by how many pictures are taken and sent.
NOTE
:
The values in the chart below were based on taking 50% daytime photos
and 50% nighttime photos at 70ºF.
Battery Type

*
1,500 to 4,000
* High and low temperatures can reduce run time of NiMH batteries by 50% or more.
NOTE:
Battery life can vary greatly depending on signal strength.
TIP:
You can purchase 1.5V Lithium batteries as well as RECONYX

Warning
!
Do not mix battery types!
Damage to the camera can result and your
warranty will be voided if you mix battery types.
