    Late season has been tough. I have plenty of action near my stand but it is ALL at night . Thinking about puttin out the camera to see what’s coming in but haven’t heard good things about Moultrie’s and the cold. Anyone familiar with operation in the cold? I think I might also start moving down the main trail to get closer to them but am already close to a bedding area. Any thoughts?

    I had no trouble with my Moultrie IR40 in the snow… Battery life is shorter though.

    my I40’s work great to around -5 to -10 degrees, batteries will still last for weeks at temps near 0. Not sure about the other moultrie cams though.

    I change my I40’s to picture mode in the winter and have very good battery life. I just pulled 2 cards from I40’s at my cabin in northern mn. they have been out for 4 weeks. both had over 900 15 second video’s and the battery life was still at 30%

    Yep, a lil shorter life but I still get a good month or so with extreme cold temps with my I40, I50 & I60’s!

    I had my Moultrie I40 out and checked it this past weekend…the last pictures I got were blizzard pics from two weeks ago. It must have shut itself down for some reason because I went and hit the power button and it turned right back on!

    Also, I was out Saturday from 6:30 a.m. til 4:30 p.m. and saw 13 deer. Definately not complaining about the action I saw!
