Ok... that's fine.Certainly Lee, originally I left it at the default settings but I found that I would miss some action at the end of the clip.
I now have sensitivity on 'High' and the interval at 5 seconds. I've had up to 50 video clips during the night (average around 30) and a couple have been of nothing but it has enabled me to see some continuity in activity on clips that are good (most).
I find the Eneloops are easily lasting 3 nights with it being set to come on at around 8:15pm and off at 6:am and then I recharge them just to be on the safe side ... they might last 4 nights or more but I don't want them to conk out mid-flow.
I am about to set up my second camera and wanted to see if it was worth changing settings, so reading what you've written I'll leave them on what they are(which is the same as yours).
I have set mine up in my 4 acre woodland(which is in the next village but only a 15 minute walk away), so it's a little trickier as there are a lot of trees and ferns etc so I don't have a large clear area, however, I have managed to capture a young roe buck, and doe, and this morning I see she has a fawn.
I am using normal Energizer max batteries, they have lasted a month so far in the first one. I leave mine on all day and night, so how long are your videos for?.
