Thread: Moultrie M - series game cameras....Anybody else having issues with these?

I purchased one of these from "that"H & F store in November 2018.......well before the ChCH issue and the flow on before anybody asks why.

It caused me endless problems with turning it self off despite charged batteries. Finally earlier this year it turned itself off for good. Back to that store who supplied a M8000 as a replacement as the earlier model had been discontinued.

Same series of problems again despite being on charged batteries and even a 12 volt battery running through a 12 volt dc -dc Buck-Boost Converter.. A link if you don't know what they are. https://tinyurl.com/nm4lbva The output from this converter is a steady 12.23 volt whereas the output from 8 1.5 volt aaa cells starts at about 12.3x volts and drops down to diddley squat.

Finally the replacement Moultrie turned it self off permanently so another trip to that store and on to camera #3.

As this is such a bad performance from the Moultrie M 8* ( 3 in less than 12 months) series, I am curious if I am just unlucky with getting "Monday" cameras or if others have issue with their Moultrie M8* series.
