Had to really look to find this one.

I'm having a lot of false triggers from my stealth cell cams.
I do get a few from time to time, but I also find frames with birds, squirrels, and rabbits in them. I almost ruled the above a false trigger, was tough finding that deer on this little phone screen. He was almost perfectly lined up with the leaning tree.

It's a good and bad thing. Good thing is I don't think much gets by them. Bad thing is dead batteries, deer will walk right by during delay/recovery time, and deer will avoid the area if there is repeated flashing

Yeah, the app has been screwy lately too. I get notifications of new activity and there's not, then later on get a dump of pics that should have been earlier. I do get some frames I can't find anything, mostly on my food plot, and here lately getting some empty frames where deer has blown by the camera. All in all mine do a fair job though.

Of the 4 stealth cells i am currently running, the only one that ate batteries was the revolver. I put a solar pak on it last year with old batteries and the battery status never changed the remainder of the time I had it out. Put the same batteries back in it when I put the camera out this year with the solar pak and they have remained at the same level.

Amazon had those 5000mah solarpaks under $50. I have two of them, but haven't tried them on the regular cell cams.
