I decided to add another cam...L series. Firmware in the cam is 1.8.0 but they seem to be saying to install 1.7.0. 1.7.0 is the latest on their website as well. On the app the firmware version is in red for this cam. I did get pics sent in the beginning but nothing the past 24hrs. Which means...
Slowly moving away from AA's. Stealth has an external battery pack now too. https://www.stealthcam.com/products/fieldmax-external-lithium-rechargeable-battery/?sku=STC-ERLP10
12 pack 18650 rechargeable Li-ion batts for $22.44 with the 12% coupon. Coupon only good for one 12-pk.

Probably for pictures. I have mine (that camera) set for videos but since it's quite a trip to the cams I've been switching out the batteries each time I go. Over 600 30sec videos one of those times. I'm guessing a solar panel would keep them charged...they are supposed to have one compatible...
GardePro has some cams with them. I have one- they don't last nearly as long as Energizer lithiums but I've got 2 cartridges that I can rotate. I have their (small)solar panel but have yet to hook it up.
StealthCam is supposed to be coming out with one.
I've had them in my "list" on Amazon in case they ever go on sale. I think if I were getting any to use with solar I'd just use cheaper ones, but these do seem to be some of the best.
Back to the Energizer lithiums... another thing besides the "bulk" discounts with JCB Products is that there...
May have been in this thread but I used those Ninmax for videos and there was a bigger difference(Energizer lasted longer/took more videos)- I even commented that I ended up using them for pic only cams though. I wonder how the price will compare to Amazon.
Why doesn't he just buy Energizer in...

Maybe some day it'll go on sale...
I'm guessing it's not as bright as Boly's other cams...may be good for closer shots 🤔
Cheapest I've seen is still from here: https://www.electronicsandbatteries.com/products/energizer-lithium-aa-battery?variant=36529047240868
Cheaper than Sam's Club even before any bulk discounts.
I did just buy a box of these though because of the $5 off coupon...
Are you sure that's not just when you first uploaded it? Usually it changes later and/or you can change it yourself- view at 1080 or higher depending upon the video.
