Trail Camera 12V / Solar Auxiliary Power Pack, 3-Pack (3 Items)

Delayed submitting this review in order to give it a good test...results - OUTSTANDING. Initially, I was skeptical but after plenty of research i gave them a try. Not a lot to say other than the test results. I put these out the first week of June in Central WI with one hooked up to 2 Browning Cams (all pics) with a splitter, 1 hooked up to a Browning Cam (pics) and a Radix Cam (pics/videos) with a splitter and 1 hooked up to a lone Radix Cam (pics/videos)...as of Dec 8th all 3 power packs are still at 100%, even with the past month of below freezing temps.There has been no issues all season, no maintenance other than to brush the snow off. Last important info is I average over 5000 pics on the 2 Brownings per week, over 2500 pics and 2500 pics with 2500-10 sec videos per week on pack 2 and over 1500 pics with 1500-10 sec videos per week on the 3rd power pack. That is a lot of pics/videos over the past 6 months...I'll let you do the math. Bringing them in at the end of Dec, will trickle charge and keep above freezing until next summer. So impressed and not expecting and problems for next year. For a $150 this was a great investment saving me over $200 in lithuim batteries for those cameras this year and if I get a full year out of these next year the savings will be over $500 for 2 years. Also...I put alkaline batteries in like they suggest for back up in case it goes dead...they died, don't know when, but no worries, the HMEs are pushing 100% yet even in the cold and with the sun low on the southern horizon. Oh, each pack averaged 3-5 hrs dircet sun in summer and 1-2 hrs in Nov/Dec. Love them. If I can't get more next year then I will definitely get the HME solar packs with rechargeable lithuim batteries in them.

The newly designed end/ connection plugs have mass to them making it difficult to connect to game cameras

I habe several old ones and they work great still. I'm expecting the same performance from these. The cable seems to be more heavy duty.

With the price of batteries, upgrades to these solar charged batteries was a game changer for maintaining battery life, they work great, easy to set up and the durability held up through a hurricane. It fit multiple different trail cameras

They work great, I haven’t had to change a battery all yr. I just wish they came with adapters for the Reveal.

No more large packs of AA batteries or unexpected dead batteries. I have cell transmitting game cameras. They don’t last at all on video mode. Now I never have to check a photo card or replace batteries. I haven’t needed to go to my cameras any since I got these solar packs out there.They come with a decent cord and you do need to place them and adjust the solar panel to maximize available sunlight. Camouflage with leaves or straw

Use these on my moultrie cell cams don’t waste your money the solar panels don’t work and the 12v they come with are junk
