I am using some older Moultrie 6v cameras, and have a battery question. i have tried the rechargeable spring top 6v with solar charger and it won't keep up with camera, usually dead within a couple weeks. might mention settings, 3 pics every minute. what i have used before used and worked great is a 6v tractor battery. same size as car battery, but only 6v. it would run camera all year without issues. one of my two has died and i can't find any more, not under a $100 anyways. will the 6v 12 amp sealed rechargeable w\solar keep u with the camera? any other suggestions would be appreciated.

I'm using a spring top rechargeable batteries and solar panels on 2 of my cameras. I've only had 1 camera go dead after a month and had to recharge the battery but it was my fault I thought I had it in the sun and was in shade. Your solar panels should be putting out around 9 volts.. mine do and keep all my batteries charged.. all my feeders are set up the sameway.
