different types of batteries at the same time. If you will not be using the
hunting camera for a long period of time, remove the batteries to prevent

distances and angles so that you can move around the area repeatedly. The LED
lights will flash, indicating that you are within viewing range. Once the LED
lights stop flashing, you are out of the monitored range.
This testing will help you determine the best place to install the hunting
camera. The height from the ground depends on the size of the game you want to
record. The recommended height from the ground is between 90 and 180 cm (but
