I've done it several times now on cameras I leave 6 1/2 hours from home.....you'd think I would learn by now!!
You'd think a game cam company could fix this... How about a feature that would switch over to "On" electronically if you left it in setup for more then 'X' number of minutes. That may be a best seller ever! Set the bar higher for other companies Pat.... Think outside the box!
Just checked a cam I had on the outside perimeter of the property that I had on a 2 week soak... Not a single picture because of dead batteries.
