i have been switchin over to them rechargeble batteries i use the energizer ones in all my lights and i used a set in my fuji camers and they do pretty good the only thing is they are only good for a month or just a bit over a month but they are worth it because you can recharge them over and over. i have a car charger and a home charger for them .i useAA/AAA/D sizeenergizerrechargable batteries. just when you buy them go with the highest nuber thats on the side of the battery i think mine are the highest power ones and they say 2450 i think.</p>

Ordered me a set of 8 Tenergy D cell 10,000 mAh high capacity rate NiMH rechargable batteries and charger. They are not cheap but will pay for themselves in only 6 months if you figure a set of 4 Durracell once a month. In the meantime I put in another brand new set today and it would not even power up. Went to the Cuddeback web site and went through their troubleshooting. Looks like a return is in order.</p>
I did pick up another cheaper (Wildgame) brand on Black Friday for $49. Takes good daytime photos but not as good as the Cuddeback for night time shots. Got one shot of a kid on a 4 wheeler trucking down the pipeline that crosses my place. The trigger spot had to be over 40-50 foot from my camera. Not once for a lucky shot but 4 times in a half hour.</p>

It also caught this pair of night prowlers trying to sneak in the back gate. Dang I knew there were deer out here but did not suspect they were hanging out in the front pasture. The funny part was I had just went through that gate 30 minutes before checking the hog trap before heading to work that day.</p>

Sure hate to hear that about your Cuddeback. We've never had no problems to talk about,other than beardamaging them. I do havetwo camera's, that the batteries, after installing them, one has totwist them to make them make contact.....But Cuddeback, has agood warranty....</p>
If you could just get a camera shotof theface of the " rider", and give it to the sheriff's office. All you would have to do isbust one. Word get's around quickly. </p>

Sent the Cuddeback in for waranty repair. In the meantime have to settle for poor night time shots. This camera take great daytime shots from a great distance but night time is not so good.</p>
Would of likes a better pic of this guy out at the lease. He was less than 15 foot from camera.</p>
</p>
These two showed up on New Years eve. They were only about 20 foot from camera.</p>
</p>
Good trigger speed and range. I was passing at a good speed 40-50 foot from camera. Just need better flash.</p>
