Primos batteries

I use duracell also in my primos. Tried energizer didnt last half as long. Probably get 10- 12000 pics with duracell.
 
Mine did the same thing. This sounds crazy, but I found the original folder that was created (it also had a encrypted "something" within that folder), and I dragged it back to the memory card that I'm using and it works fine now. When transferring my pics, I took that folder off the memory card. See if you did the same thing. Good luck!
 
Try getting on ebay and ordering an external rechargeable battery. You can get one for about $8 (6amp). You can buy a cable on Amazon for about $8 also. I'd recommend buying an extra battery so you can swap them out. I tested them with my Primos cameras and you should get over 4000 pics with this set up. Plus, you will never have to buy batteries again.

Bass pro had a kit with the battery,cable,charger,and a weather proof bag that you strap to the tree, bought it yesterday prob try it out this week . Thanks for the idea.
 
would/nt spend to much on those cams.

they work fine year 1 and maybe 2, after then they are done.

I have 2 that gave me the same troubles, put them out a month ago, got into some chiggers and it took 2 pictures of coons and the batteries were dead.

replaced the batteries and now it won't power up at all.

Called Primos, they don't own them anymore or something, was told to call Bushnell. they want me to send it to them at my cost, with a 10-15 money order for processing and shipping.

don't think I'm sinking any more money into them.

Also have 2 blackout ultras that I bought last year and the same deal with them.

I'm just a little frusterated with all my cams and Primos this year.
