Hey I'm developing a device for 6 volt trail cameras that does not need exposure to light It's based off the technology that's over 100 years old I'm just surprised people forgotten about it potentially this could run your camera permanently it does not put out much energy that's why it was not pursued deeper but with today's modern electronics that's perfectly fine especially trail cameras that draw a couple of milliamps
Just started looking into solar for the trailcam. I know nothing about the solar stuff, but found this video pretty good. I use a Browning StrikeForce HDpro and GardePro A3 cams. Will this unit work with these? And how would two be connected?
Both of those cameras you mentioned require 12V. This solar panel has one 12V output.. the other two outputs are 9V and 6V. If you would want to run both of these cameras at once off of the same solar panel, one of those cameras would require a 6V or 9V input. You would need a solar panel for each camera. You will not go wrong if you decide to purchase these!!
Do you know (for sure) if it will hook up to a Vikeri 4K trail camera? I picked up the WingHome solar panel/battery and it will not connect to the Vikeri, wrong cable sizes... HELP!
Will a trail camera that has a 12-volt port for a solar panel. Can it run off 9-volt solar panel? I was going to run an Exodus Render off the 12volt port and an Exodus Lift II off the 9volt port? If so I could use this panel.
Would this solar panel run the Tactacam camera better than or about the same as the Tactacam solar panel? Would I still use 12 AA batteries with the solar panel?
@@jimallen1176 They will both power the unit, but this panel will last much longer and also charge more efficiently. You can pull up specs to compare side by side, but the main thing is this panel has a 25,000 mah battery compared to tactacams 3,000 mah
Cellular plans in Canada for trail camps are ridiculous they're $15 a month for the basic package at most 100 low quality pictures and coverage is spotty at best in rural areas And if you're like me running six cameras Plus that gets expensive real quick $90 a month and that's if you don't go over the hundred pictures and forget about video you're probably going to hit the thousands you're better off just running a cellular plan for $60 a month per camera with unlimited data this would come out to $360 a month or $4,320 a year and I still did not include the online storage in that price You're better off getting a non-cellular camera that can take a massive SD card like 128 gigs or 512 sitting your videos to 10 seconds and 5 minute intervals between photos and video But I do like solar panels nonetheless they work great on cameras and on top of that you can get away with a smaller solar panel if you don't have cellular I like to check my cameras once or twice in a year and then yank them after hunting season
I got mine in today from spypoint and it’s been on charge for about 4 hours and still only one red light blinking with the green light am I doing something wrong or not understanding something?
Is spypoint 15,000mah? as I think they might be the same panels, but this one is 25,000...I think that panel will take longer than 4 hrs to charge....or is that what the specs say? it usually takes 8-12hrs to charge 10,000 mah but it also depends on the type of plug end that fits into your panel as they are all rated for different charging rates.
It was verified herd has not paid for any exclusivity nor does he have any sort of agreement for any rights to any design ideas he may have sent to the manufacturer. Not to discredit anything herd may have said about making suggestions to the manufacturer but everyone knows the manufacturers will sell their products to as many companies as they can. They do this with trail cameras and every other product they own. It is commonly referred to as a "white label" product if a single company does not own the rights to any design.
Thanks for looking out for me Jesse. Unfortunately what Wayne says is true. When I first approached several manufactures overseas to take what I had been building customer for years into a manufactured product for me I settled with the current manufacture and we had an agreement not to sell them to anyone else. I immediately went to work giving them design changes for a future model. They then started producing the new model with all my exact design enhancements. Then they informed me they would start selling to other companies. This was a huge blow to me and I looked at every avenue I could to stop it. They also informed me that our agreement was only of the first generation model. So when nobody in the industry had or even thought of a larger unit I came along and found someone to buy into what I was already doing and therefore created my own competition. Won't happen again and I already have design ideas to make it better. Now I just need to find out how to keep it exclusive this time.
@@herd360 Agreed, I just bought a 1025 from your website thank goodness I caught that info before I purchased from Spypoint. Now it’s like every time I look at solar panels for trail cameras your solar panel is showing up on multiple different places. I hope you’re able to keep your next design from being stolen and I look forward to the release of an improved design over the Gen2.
Sorry for your ignorance in manufacturing, but we understand who the trolls work for and everyone can see your motivation in leaving this comment, true or not. For the record we have never heard of herd until long after we had ordered and received this panel from the manufacturer. In fact we have discussed this with herd, we received our first shipment of panels at almost the same time as herd and well before he released any video or marketing of it. So no need to imply we "stole" anything, that is just ignorance on your part, or maybe you are aware of this but simply have another motive.
If you purchase from the manufacturer that stole his idea , you are still stealing, just like buying stolen product from someone,that you know stole it ,make you guilty as the thief
ya its hard to find anything cheaper though with that amount of juice as all these companies buy from the same Chinese supplier...You would save on batteries for sure...So after 2 years you would be ahead of the game if your cameras take lots of pics.
The solar panel can support a python cable for anti-theft purposes. We realize this solar panel isn't for everybody, but it's designed for certain situations where the camera may be located deep in the woods, or in an area of poor sunlight.
That looks like the panel that Mike from Herd 360 designed and brought to market
check the thread below where mike explained this already
I need to get two of those cameras and two of those solos

That would be done where I live in Canada, bears would eat that for a joke
Comments are being deleted if you say anything about there being the same one available on amazon.

@@spencerlewer7053 I was hoping for a splitter cable, but thanks for the reply. Still in the thinking stage anyway.

How long before the squirrels to eat the cord
I have a Covert AW1-V Trail camera. Do you think the Solar Panel will work with that camera?
Or a better question is it universal?
Will a trail camera that has a 12-volt port for a solar panel. Can it run off 9-volt solar panel? I was going to run an Exodus Render off the 12volt port and an Exodus Lift II off the 9volt port? If so I could use this panel.
Hey James, since both of the cameras require 12V, this will not work to run both cameras at once.
Maybe you can help me out and direct me in the right track cuz I don't know the exactly what to get is there a link
Will it work with tactacam reveal cellular trail cameras
Yes, it comes with a power cord that will fit the tactacam reveal.
Would this solar panel run the Tactacam camera better than or about the same as the Tactacam solar panel?
Would I still use 12 AA batteries with the solar panel?

This looks identical to my herd 360 ....🤔 so they change the name name on it and claim as their own....
see thread below under jesse smith comments where mike explains what you are saying is not true
Bingo
Cellular plans in Canada for trail camps are ridiculous they're $15 a month for the basic package at most 100 low quality pictures and coverage is spotty at best in rural areas
And if you're like me running six cameras Plus that gets expensive real quick $90 a month and that's if you don't go over the hundred pictures and forget about video you're probably going to hit the thousands you're better off just running a cellular plan for $60 a month per camera with unlimited data this would come out to $360 a month or $4,320 a year and I still did not include the online storage in that price
You're better off getting a non-cellular camera that can take a massive SD card like 128 gigs or 512 sitting your videos to 10 seconds and 5 minute intervals between photos and video
But I do like solar panels nonetheless they work great on cameras and on top of that you can get away with a smaller solar panel if you don't have cellular I like to check my cameras once or twice in a year and then yank them after hunting season
Which cameras are you running in Canada ?
I got mine in today from spypoint and it’s been on charge for about 4 hours and still only one red light blinking with the green light am I doing something wrong or not understanding something?
Or should I return it
Is spypoint 15,000mah? as I think they might be the same panels, but this one is 25,000...I think that panel will take longer than 4 hrs to charge....or is that what the specs say? it usually takes 8-12hrs to charge 10,000 mah but it also depends on the type of plug end that fits into your panel as they are all rated for different charging rates.
This panel not only can hold more juice but the panel its self will recharge the batteries much faster than theirs.
Did you just straight up copy the herd 360 solar panel? It's exactly the same and he claims to have designed it.

@@jettamustang thank you 😊
@JettaMustang mine still includes some accessories that none others do
Make it bigger🤣🤣🤣
Overpriced, the cheap stealthcam sol runs all year and has lithium battery built in for less than half price .
Too bad you count create your own product and instead steal Herd360's panel, not only that you sell it for MORE than he does with less accessories 😂
nice job stealing the herd 360 design. Very inovative

Secacam solar Premium ist's the same
That’s the one they stole from Mike Kirkpatrick. Go buy his instead.

Nice, but way overpriced!
ya its hard to find anything cheaper though with that amount of juice as all these companies buy from the same Chinese supplier...You would save on batteries for sure...So after 2 years you would be ahead of the game if your cameras take lots of pics.
Sold me 🔥🤘
YOU FOR REAL ??? Can't imagine that giant thing for some one to steal.
The solar panel can support a python cable for anti-theft purposes. We realize this solar panel isn't for everybody, but it's designed for certain situations where the camera may be located deep in the woods, or in an area of poor sunlight.
