Hi All,
Simple Questions - How long would I expect a Tactcam Reveal Cell Camera to run on new Alkaline batteries? They are currently 1/8 the price of lithiums so I'd like to have some idea of what others have experienced. I only need to get 3-5 months out of the camera to make it worth it for me. I will also be testing to see how far a camera goes in the upcoming months.
NOTE - this is under moderate temp, strong cell service, and conservative battery life settings.
Just to give everyone an idea of pricing - 7 Cell Cams in my arsenal.
7 cams x 12 batteries - 84 total
84 x .26 cents (Alkaline - Amazon) = $21.84 for the year
84 x 2 dollars (Lithium at Sam's Club) = $168
I'd be fine with running the fleet for $22 a year if I got 3-5 months out of the batteries.
Thoughts?
