We had bought a trail camera that ran on 4 'd' batteries, but the cold weather where we live drained the batteries quickly. We would like a trail camera that doesn't eat up batteries in cold weather. We need something for home security also, and would like a trail camera so we can use it for security and hunting. Is there a solar powered trail camera, or some type of security camera that doesn't get affected by cold weather?
where does he live? was the camera put through a harsh winter? we live in south dakota

My son has a Moultre I50. They claim 150 days on a set of batteries. His ran from October to March last year without a battery change.

Help finding a good set of security cameras for community entrance without electricity?

I need advice on security cameras. We have two entrances to our Colorado mountain community neither of which has electricity. We want to post cameras at both entrances and maybe one or two other locations. I am thinking we'd have to go with battery operated cameras and even better if the cameras allow the batteries to be solar recharged. To save us having to climb trees, removing memory cards, etc., we would like cameras we could drive next to with a laptop in the vehicle, download the pictures, delete the pictures from the camera, be on our way. Would be even better if we could transmit the pictures via the internet but nothing electronic out there, like a router, and transmitting pictures via satellite would like be too expensive, I think. Might someone here know of a good camera or a kit that would fit this need? Our budget is $500 max and that will be a bit of a stretch.

Check out wildlife/trail cameras with GSM connectivity - if you've got some sort of cellphone reception in that area.
Can't recommend any brands or even websites, though. Most of them seem to come from China anyway.
What I can see from here, the prices for the GSM models seem a bit overrated, though (around 350$) - a German supermarket chain is regularly selling the cheapest no-GSM-model for 99 â¬.

If you don't have GSM connectivity in that area, you might check if an Eye fi card works in the cameras that might be suitable for you: http://www.eye.fi, those look like ordinary SD cards, but provide WiFi connection in addition.

Oh, and perhaps run a cord down to a battery compartment at ground level. Saves you climbing that tree to change batteries unless some a**hole rips out said battery compartment (won't do them any good with the batteries inside the camera still operational...)
