Hi all,
Worked out the issues with the camera (Paul, I got a Toguard H85)
...I had the sensitivity it set too low on it...
So once that was fixed, I got some great footage of several cats...the quality of the images are great on it so I'm delighted about that...but with all my messing with the settings the 8 x batteries were used up in 2 days!!!!
Good grief...that is not ideal.
So I've now ordered a 6v 2A DC power supply. That's the end of me using batteries. That's arriving on Tuesday...so I'm just using my other dome camera until then. Foxy and Hedgy are still visiting though.
Today we got around to putting the Oak tree down in the ground. The joy it has brought me. I keep going out to look at it. Can't wait to see bird sitting in the branches.
Its a young tree and will take years to establish, but to give you an idea of the size, the hedge behind it is 7ft high.
