I just came across your video; about to buy spypoint g-36's. I see amazon has the solar panels available. Is it still working after 1 year? Thank You for your time.
It is still working. I also use it with the Moultrie cams I have. Only problem now is buying the solar panel, Amazon is out of stock now. It’s been at a great price lately so been hard to get.
amzn.to/466LPP5 Not the same price point and haven’t tested it yet but does have good reviews. Ever since xtracker reduced their price’s Amazon can’t keep them in stock.
I use X tracker game camera solar panels, the Spypoints are too expensive. There is a link in the description of the video. I have several in service now and have had great luck. Just loaded up on several because they are $20 off
I don’t have batteries in it at all. Just running off the Solar now. I am just experimenting with different setups. Batteries are getting expensive so looking for some alternative setups.
Absolutely. These cams suck down some battery life. I was under the impression we had to connect the solar panel to an external battery then to the cam, but will try this. Thanks
@@stottscreekoutdoors at 7:36 in the video you state that you "do have the batteries in the camera as well". I'm trying to setup with solar panel without batteries and having problems
@@MattWarren-ve1sb I started with them in it, but found out it didn’t need them in as long as the Solar Panel is working. That Solar Panel actually has a battery in it. Although just found that someone, loggers more than likely unplugged the solar panel from the camera so wish I had the batteries as back up.
So the camera will default to the solar panel as a primary source and not use batteries if installed. I just picked up a flex at Walmart for $60 so this is a great video to keep me from buying batteries. Much appreciated!
