Well did the hard reset and nothing. Stupid thing wouldn't even boot up. So I brought it home and on a whim, swapped the sim card and put some different batteries in it and it booted up.
The app wasn't indicating low battery either. Go figure. I bought the solar panels with the integrated battery. They are 60$. Being that every time I had to change the batteries it cost 30$ they will pay for themselves in short order. Solar panel with integrated battery is the only way to go as far as I'm concerned. My cameras have never had batteries in them. I use a piece of 2x4 screwed to a metal fence post, panel on top, camera below it. This way I can move them easily and don't have to worry about connecting the 2 pieces each time.

Riflenut is that the solar panel from Tac.? It's a Winghome panel from Amazon. It's one of the ones Tactacam recommends. Here ya go: Linky

One of mine hasn't updated or sent pics in 4 days. I seriously doubt someone found it, and the batteries are new 🤷🏾♂️

One of mine hasn't updated or sent pics in 4 days. I seriously doubt someone found it, and the batteries are new 🤷🏾♂️ That has been my primary problem. I have one that hasn't checked in for 2 days. The last one that was doing that said it had 100% battery and when I started messing with it, it wouldn't come on. Replaced the batteries and its all good. I just got my 2 back I sent off, and they seem to have fixed them. Put in new batteries, powered them up and they seem to be working. I am about to buy a bunch of their battery packs. I am not sure I can make the solar panels work.

Dang things acting up again. Changed out the batteries last go around because they apparently went dead, AND i added a Solar panel, this was back in the 21st and last pic i got was the 19th and hasn't checked in in 4 days. Definitely has a power drain, going to have to contact them i reckon.

ISNT the purpose of the solar panel to replace the batteries or keep them charged?
