1.4 Power Supply
A. Batteries
Camera runs on 6 or 12AA size batteries, can work with alkaline and high-quality
NI-MH batteries. And we suggest not to use Lithium batteries.
Batteries should be inserted as indicated inside the battery case. Upside down
batteries electrode may cause device malfunction. Also, we strongly recommend
changing the batteries when power icon on camera screen or photo stamp is empty.
Note! Don't mix batteries types! Different batteries to be 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, and using environment, etc; we're not able to list out
exact number of photos and videos that camera can achieve. So, given table below
only shows approximate number of photos or videos camera can take with 12 AA
alkaline batteries.
Test Condition: LCD screen off. Mode: "Power On" _PIR intelligent automatically monitoring.

B. Solar Panel
To bring users better using experience, our engineers designed this camera to be
able to work with most standard 12V/1~2A lithium battery build-in solar panels.
However, as rechargeable AA NI-MH need higher voltage for charging that solar
panel can't charge the batteries in using in camera batteries cases.
C. Power Adaptor, Security Surveillance Purpose
This camera can also be powered by an external 12V/1~2A DC adaptor.
Recommend to remove the AA size batteries when power adapter is used.
Electrical power is recommended for security purposes.
