Ike, I have similar experiences with Browning. Due to the high cost of AA lithium, I tried using alkaline batteries in them. That was pretty much a waste of time. Once the alkalines start to loose juice, night time vids quickly went from 20 seconds to about 1-3 seconds. Litiums seem to be more...

Spike, I grow RR corn in the Ogdensburg area. I just went to Bordeaux Bros in Canton and asked for a bag of RR corn to be used for a deer plot. They sold me a damaged bag at a discount. I have no idea what brand or growing type it was but it grew very well. Raccoons got their fair share of it...

Not a great answer to your question, but some info on battery life in these cams. I just got 638 thirty second night videos on a fresh set of Energizer Lithiums ( by mistake). I put out a Gardepro E5 recently with brand new Energizer Lithiums . I had the side PIR sensors on, with a zero wait...

Those Gardepro cameras take amazing pictures. Even better videos!

After my limited comparison, I find the A3S has much better sensitivity than the A5. Also night vision with the A3S is much better. Either way, both perform very well. They are on sale on Amazon. Happy Holidays all !

I too am switching from Browning to Gardepro. Also building external batteries with cables from Herd360.com.

I believe I’ve come home at 2:30 am on Halloween sounding like that a couple of times. Those cams take great vid BTW !

Good stuff Ike ! I switched to AA alkalines this season due to the cost of Lithium AAs. Alkaline suck. I picked up a solar panel sold by Browning, and have built a couple of 10 amp hour 12 v rechargeable battery packs. I have high hopes for them.

How do you keep good batteries that long ? Thanks

I bought two based on the recommendations here, and the price. After the first card pull, I’m pretty impressed, especially with the night time vids. Glad I didn’t know about the Prime Day deals, I would have had to purchase a couple more. !

I have one that must be near a hickory tree. Squirrels trigger it during the day. Mice trident it at night. Time to reposition.

Thanks, just ordered a couple to add to my collection.

What’s your opinion on that brand of camera ?

I run all 13 browning Dark Ops cameras on 1 min video mode using a 64 gig SD card. It only records for 20 seconds per vid at night. The flash on this series of cameras is supposed to be invisible to critters. I have two cameras on a social scrape that has been very active for at least 10...

Beautiful rifle.
