Glad I could help👍🏻 There’s no risk of damaging the camera by putting the batteries in the camera itself while it’s on and connected to the external power. This is because the camera is using the external power so the new batteries won’t have any effect on power when you put them in the camera while it’s on.

@@uoutdoorsThank you! All clear now, perfect 👍

I made the posts and shelving myself. The tree stumps were stripped cedar logs I picked up from a local woodworker, then I sanded them, stained, and sealed them. I will say that they might be a little too smooth/slick with the sanding and sealing, the cameras can’t grip the posts very well so it’s a pain to setup but they do look nice👍🏻

We shall see! The Rye established really well after this mowing (I have another video showing the update) so with both the clover and rye growing I don’t think the clover will choke it out. May actually be the opposite with the Rye suppressing the clover due to how thick it is now. Will be interesting to see next spring👍🏻

Ya I saw that other video and hour after this one. We will be watching next spring. 👍🦌🦌

Definitely!

Try a new SD card in the camera that’s sending the same images over and over. That should fix the issue. Let me know if that works👍🏻

Initial planting was the previous year about August 25th. This was our Fall 365 mix so the rye portion would come out to around 20 lbs/ac. Clover in that mix was medium red, we added more clover to this years seed mix for a full rate since I thought it was a little light in this plot. The additional clover is ladino white clover to give us more diversity, better weed control, and more forage.

I just posted an update video of this plot if you’d like to see what it looks like now👍🏻 ua-cam.com/video/pNghf1vQ4to/v-deo.htmlsi=qumERQEB0A8TDDXc

Just nature. I think with a clover base you can really do a lot of different things with minimal effort and lots of diversity plus it’s a great safety net for years like this that was so dry👍🏻

Thanks for the input and sub, glad you liked it! On this small property I only have 2 stand sites and the one with the waterhole has great access, that's why I put it there vs somewhere else. Every property is different so it's hard to say where to put things every time but I do think my thought process is a bit different than others I've seen on UA-cam. I prefer to concentrate movement as much as possible and actually have fewer stand sites. Most others seem to want more stand locations on a property. I'll explain the whole setup on Episode 8 with a map, I'm sure it'll make more sense then :)

@@uoutdoors thanks for the reply. Totally get it, I prefer putting attractions or draws not all together. I’ve already got em coming to the food, don’t need a second attraction. I’d rather use that attraction in an area that doesn’t have an existing attraction. You are absolutely right about all properties being different, always appreciate seeing others strategies. I have a mock within range of every stand, generally a camera on the mock. Great stuff man, best wishes this season, hope you bag a monster!

Glad you liked it!

On a 4D powered camera you should get 1 1/2 to 2 months of run time depending on pic counts, link signal strength, etc..could be less with lots of pictures. I’m assuming those moultrie and bushnell cameras are just SD cams, most cellular (and cuddelink) take much more power to operate. I recommend external power on every brand of cell cam I’ve sold. I definitely recommend external power on the Cuddelinks, they just take more power to run and like you mentioned the point is to not visit the camera very often. There’s 2 different solar panel options. 1) is the PW-3600, this works well if you have good sunlight and are placing cameras on trails, scrapes, field/food plot edges. I’ve had them run for a year without touching them. uoutdoors1.com/store/solar-power-bank-model-pw-3600 Option 2) is the PW-003 sun and shade solar panel, this can work in semi shaded areas and full sun and would be a good option for everywhere including feeder locations. It is a bit overkill for moderate pic locations with good sunlight though. uoutdoors1.com/store/cuddeback-super-solar-panel-pw-003 You can also go with external battery packs like the Dx6 or Dual Power Bank, you would be using more D batteries though which it sounds like you prefer not to use. These would be good in wooded spots where solar wouldn’t be ideal. If you have any other questions please let me know👍🏻

@uoutdoors I'll check out those options. Just checked my cameras, and it shows 2 of the cameras, I just put fresh batteries in 3 weeks ago, as low. Neither of them have had many pics taken lately. Maybe 50-100 pics in the 3 weeks... I guess I just expected more out of cameras that cost $200 each.

@@whitetailhunter7202 do your cameras take 4D batteries? What brand are you using?

@@uoutdoors yes, 4 D cell. Duracell. Was going to purchase a different brand to see if I get the same results.

@@whitetailhunter7202 try Rayovac High Energy, they work the best in the Cuddeback’s

That would definitely be another great option!

Thanks for the feedback! I don’t script anything so I tend to ramble a bit sometimes. I definitely feel it’s getting easier with every video though👍🏻

Correct, the new ones don’t have the holes. Are you just putting 1 camera and 1 solar panel on the post? If so you can just slide the solar panel into the mount or if you want to tilt it up (my preference) you can attach the tilt mount to the post/camera bracket using a hose clamp or UV resistant zip ties. I do wish they keep the holes though…

I’ve grown Egyptian wheat and sorghum in Iowa and Wisconsin and it actually does well during dry hot weather here but I know our dry/hot isn’t the same as it is down south. If things go well I may plant giant miscanthus in this spot in the future so I don’t have to replant every spring👍🏻

@@uoutdoors My Egyptian wheat popped up nicely a foot tall, green, then the rain stopped for the rest of last spring and summer, it dried up and turned brown and died. I used a water tote wagon and tried to save it by watering it but it failed. This year we are under severe drought again and the miscanthus has held up nicely. Much better than the Egyptian wheat, 4 feet tall and still green. I definitely don’t want to keep planting screen every year. Too much area to cover here.

@@MyVisualRomance that’s great to hear! How many rows of miscanthus did you plant in your screen? How much do you think it costed you per 100’ (or any easy to measure length)?

@@uoutdoors I ordered 2,300 rhizomes spread 18” apart gives you about 3,450’ of coverage. It cost about $1450. In my case we have a LOT of screening that had to be done here so I planted double rows only and we still didn’t get all the screen cover we really needed but the good news is that in about 2 years they will spawn new roots which can be dug up and planted where we need them. Spoke to a lot of folks who did this cause I was concerned about it spreading like wildfire and all of them said its easily controlled.

@@uoutdoors Fig did a good video series on miscanthus. ua-cam.com/users/shortsdWGbcKXCIZs?feature=share

These beans won’t create pods, not far enough along to do so. In either case it wouldn’t be a bad idea to do it. Brassicas would work best at the grow stage they’re at now but our Fall 365 mix contains cereal grains and some peas so I want to get them buried a little. That’s why I’ll lightly work it up to plant those.

Your video is good as well, I don’t personally have much experience with liquid fertilizers but I can see the advantage with rain timing. Do you know why the liquid won’t also evaporate to a degree when it’s sprayed on top and no rain is in the forecast?

They’ll work mock scrapes all summer if they’re available and in a good location. I’d say most of the hot scraping action would start in mid October through November.

Cameras on the internal 4D batteries themselves will last around 2 months (give or take depending on situation). Don’t have any hard numbers on the big solar yet but my experience with the PW-3600 (smaller panel) has been great. These need to be in sun but if they are I’ve had mine run all year without using the internal D batteries of the camera. Of course this will vary depending on pic counts, sun, link signal, etc… the big solar has I’ve over 2x the panel surface area and has 2 internal battery packs (vs 1 in the 3600) so it should last much longer.

@@uoutdoors I know some company's recommend having batteries in the camera with solar panel but you've ran your cudde cams with out batteries for almost a year?

@@MakingHope yeah pretty much, the camera never switched to the internal D batteries so it would have been good to go without batteries as well.

@@uoutdoors was your camera getting a lot of sun or in the woods?

@@MakingHope full sun, I’d do full sun for the 3600 panel. The big panel will handle more shade but of course sun is better.

Are you looking for the L cell home (without camera)? If so I have some in stock. If you ever have questions or need anything let me know, I’m usually more helpful than the CS department👍🏻 uoutdoors1.com/store/cuddelink-l-series-cell-home

@@uoutdoors already purchased several Cuddeback products from you after visiting your website. Including the cuddelink home. Thank you!!!

Is there a cell plan for unlimited pictures

@@arnw7933 yes there is! For a month to month plan it’s $40/mo for unlimited pictures. You can put up to 24 cameras on one system/plan👍🏻

To get the videos you need to request them. To do so you need to purchase video requests ($5/50 requests). Go to your photo gallery, press and hold on the image you want to request a video of, it will bring up 2 icons (HD and video), select the video icon. It will give you the option to purchase those requests, press yes. It should then send you videos on the next camera checkin. Each time you request a video it’s going to give you the $5/50 video message but it won’t charge you unless you use all of your 50 requests. Hope that makes sense.

How much will it cost to get camera video sent to your phone?

​@@uoutdoors bruh what lmao micro transactions have infiltrated land security now? Absolutely insane

Yes it does. You need to have your camera settings to pic + video and you then need to request the video (it doesn’t automatically get sent to the app). The video (and HD photo requests) cost extra, it’s $5/50 requests.

Rechargeable batteries won’t work inside your G cam because the voltage is to low with only 4 D batteries. I also wouldn’t recommend rechargeables in the 6D externals as they just won’t last very long without something to keep them recharged. If you want to use those rechargeable D batteries I would put them inside a Dual Power Bank and also hook a PW-3600 solar panel to it or if you have some 6D cameras (K or J with 6D back) you could do the same by putting those batteries inside the camera and hooking up solar directly to the camera. Hope this helps and wasn’t to confusing👍🏻

Thanks👍🏻

No problem👍🏻

Anytime👍🏻

Yes, you can run a cable lock through the bottom hole on the mount and it’ll lock the pack to the mount and the mount to the tree. You can also use a locking clip and padlock it to the mount as well, in that case I’d probably get a metal mount and screw it to the tree.

@@uoutdoors Awesome! Mine arrives Wednesday so I will look for the hole on the mount. I've got a cable lock for this camera coming too. Many thanks for the fast response!

@@MikeS-7 no problem! If you’re ever looking for more Cuddeback products in the future please let me know! Here’s a link to our website www.uoutdoors1.com/

@@uoutdoors I just checked out your website, products, and pricing (free shipping). Everything is competitive or better than Amazon.

No, there’s no settings that need to be changed internally. The 4D setting you see is on the J series cameras and is referring to the battery compartment on the camera itself. The J cameras have come with 12 AA, 6D, and now 4D battery compartments so you just have to set it to the correct one. If yours takes 4D then leave it as is👍🏻

@@uoutdoors thanks so much

@@rc5994 anytime! If you ever need any Cuddeback stuff in the future please let us know!

We actually have a different set of ROS that IMO work a little better, haven’t made a video on them yet but here’s a link to them. They’ll be back in stock soon👍🏻 www.uoutdoors1.com/product-page/ring-of-steps-with-ocb-by-treehopper

You can kind of see the impact in the video, it was farther back than I wanted but I still caught lungs and didn’t touch the guts. Found the round ball near his rear quarter on the opposite side just under the skin.

It sounds like only 1 of the 2 banks was low, on your report it should say Ext 1 or 2 (can’t recall which shows first) and then it will go low. Once that bank (6 batteries) dies it’ll go to the second bank and do the same thing. Then that bank will go low and the report should show OK, that means the camera is now using its internal batteries and the ones in the DPB are dead. Each bank (6 batteries) should last you 3-4 months which it sounds like it did. Hopefully that makes sense, if not please let me know👍🏻

No, there’s no chance of it popping open if you cam it over all the way. It’s supper tight and the buckle is firmly against the tree.

I have this camera on a headband mount, it comes with the Fish-I so you don’t need to buy anything extra! Here’s a link to them on our website with a list of what is all included. If you have any questions please let me know. www.uoutdoors1.com/product-page/tactacam-fish-i
