thunderbolt Report post Posted July 26, 2008 I have a moultrie camera and was wanting to order the solar charger from harbor freight that some one here pointed out. My question is what battery are you guys using ? Do i need to find a rechargable 6v battery for it. And how is it hooked up ? I'm tired of buying batteries, and these gas prices are killing me to where i can't go as often. If i in fact need a rechargable 6v, where do i find it? Radio shack ? Thanks for any input.

GameHauler Report post Posted July 26, 2008 I use the moultrie rechargeable batteries and their charger. When I checked mine last week after a cloudy week and not a lot of sun where it is located my battery was at 99% Headed out within the hour to check it again when (if) second Girl shows up.

huntemup Report post Posted July 26, 2008 I use the 6V rechargeable Moultrie batteries. You can buy them at Sportsmens warehouse. I have never had a battery get below 59% after 4 weeks of running. Solar panels work great. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

grizzly Report post Posted July 27, 2008 Got my solar panels and batteries at Cabelas. I think they came to about $25 together, hard to beat. Also added a 2 GB sd card from Megalomart for $6 and I can leave my cams out for months. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
