Brother had a gift card from Academy and since the 2012 moultrie's don't look that great we wanted a another 2011 m80. Academy finally got 4 on the shelves. Got one and it ate batteries. Took it back for an exchange and this one went through a set of batts in less than a week. Now going to try lucky number 3, but bet it has the same result. Tested the batteries and used different brands. Just seems like a bad batch. There are still 3 or 4 on the shelf, so anyone shopping at the Springfield Mo. Academy might want to wait on buying the 2011 m80 until they get a new shipment in from Texas, which they said would be soon.

Did you do a firmware update on the cam?

They had the updated version already installed. I had a bad feeling about these cams when they only put 4 of them on the shelf, seemed odd to only get 4 in a shipment. When you hook an external power source up to both cams and go to battery life in days it would read 'Not Applicable'. The other 3 we have will read 250 days. They are not updated, so thought this may be an updated version thing. The internals will give a reading in days though.

P.S- if you turn my thread into a cudde thread I'm going break out the WHOOPING STICK and bash away :lol: :lol: :lol:

Update: 3rd ate batteries, returned it, and ordered one off their website and it works perfect.
