Power Supply   
 
9-12V power supply, to ensure camera well performance of all functions! 
 
1. Batteries 
 
Camera runs on 6 or 12 AA size batteries, can work with alkaline and high-quality 
NiMH rechargeable batteries. We suggest running the camera with NiMH batteries as 
performance of alkaline batteries is much poorer than NiMH batteries. Choose the 
battery type you’re using in the menu option “Battery Type” to reach longer operation 
time.  
SETUP→MENU→Other→Battery Type 
 
Batteries should be inserted with correct polarity as marked in battery compartment. 
Inverted or misplaced batteries may cause device malfunction. Change the batteries 
when power icon on camera screen or photo stamp is empty. 
 
Note! Don’t mix batteries types! Different batteries used in camera may cause 
permanent damage which also violates warranty policy! 
 
Due to different settings, objects activities within camera detection zone, different 
brands and quality of batteries, environment, etc..; we’re not able to list out exact 
number of photos and videos that camera can achieve. Given table below only shows 
approximate number of photos or videos camera can take with 12AA alkaline 
batteries; better performance can be given by 12 AA rechargeable NiMH batteries. 
 
 
 
2. Solar Panel 
 
To bring users better using experience, our engineers designed the camera to be 
able to work with most standard 12V/2A lithium battery solar panels.  
 
Note! Solar panel can’t charge the batteries used in camera battery compartment. 
 
 
3. Power Adapter 
 
The camera can also be powered by an external 12V/ 2A DC adapter or power 
supply. Recommend is to remove the AA batteries from the battery compartment 
when external adapter or power is used. It is also recommended to use external 
power supply for security and surveillance purposes.
