for covert application- how long does this camera/battery last? I believe you need 9v. How far away does it get a picture?

This camera is solely used as a "body cam". Clip it on your shirt and use it dealing with issues you need to reference back to. Battery life is 2-3hr continuous run time. It includes a lanyard to go around your neck so if it accidentily unclips it will still be attached. I wear mine for on and off duty use.

It is a proprietary 3.7V 900MAH rectangular battery (I don't believe that it is common to any other devices) that you can pick up here on Amazon or elsewhere online for a very reasonable price. There are even offers for dual batteries plus an external charger which would be quite handy since the only other way to charge is in camera. These batteries last about 1 1/2 to 2 hours of recording, about as much as will fit on a 16GB card (does not support class 10 cards, use a class 4 or 6). So yeah, get extra batteries and extra memory too, then set your camera to best quality and go take some great vids.

The Covert Scouting MP6 camera is a black flash camera. I have used it for several months and taken photos of mountain lions, javelin, coues deer, fox, bobcat and many other small rodents at a mountain seep. All of these animals were photographed by the MP6 at night at less than 20 feet. One problem with the camera, it will lock up and not record video if you do not allow twice the recovery time per minute of record time in the video mode. If you set the video time for 30 seconds you must allow one minute for the video to download to the SD chip or the camera will lock up.

what are you going to use to transmit the image back to you. it really sounds to me you are going commercial and need more equipment to use an local camera. There is an standalone IP camera that might fit your requirement

A lot of factors are involved in the detection ability of any game cam. Tempature, humidity and size of game. Under normal conditions I would say about 60-70 feet. I know I own several covert mp6 units and they will pick up deer in the woods that you have to inspect the pic closely to see them. Some of these deer are 25 -30 yards away in thick cover. As far as cams go the covert is one of the best for the money. I am very pleased with the reliability andbattery life is phenomenal.

This camera is about the size of a matchbook and with a cable it will work continuously until u unplug it from the power source. Mine has been running for over 2 months straight. I hope this answers your question

It is my experience the device can only provide an hour of continuos recording. It is a great covert camera!

Hello Carla. Sound recording on covert cameras is illegal in the USA. It does have scheduled recording or you can set it on motion activation as well.Thank you.Sleuth Electronics LLC

It works with baterry for maybe 12 hours then u gotta unplug and recharge. The quality is very substandard. You can plug directly into the camera outside but in my application it didn't work. It doesn't work as advertised. Hope this helps, buyer beware.

The monitor is connected to a 12 volt source but is in kind of a dormant state until it gets the camera image. I have had no problems or any battery drain because of the monitor connection. The screen is off until you shift into reverse which causes the backup light power to the camera.

Hey. This camera hasn't battery - this is car recorder, you should use in car usb charger. It's very dark in evening times. And video has a lot of graininess after sunset. I'm not recomend you buy this camera

Sorry = I don't have a good answer - I used charged batteries and keep a spare (uncharged) for backup. It seemed like they lasted a long time. One problem - recently, I couldn't get the camera to turn off - had to remove the batteries to get it off - haven't retried it! I'm a big help! I do like the camera!

The camera uses 12volt supply from vehicles wiring or from external battery. As my app was portable, I used 2 6volt lantern batteries in series for the required 12 V.

Its a fake camera. A battery is for the movement and the red light that gives the appearance of being a real camera. It doesn't actually film anything. But it looks great but its fake. So no you dont hook it up to a computer or the web

Hello, I wish I could help but I gave this camera to my son as a gift. He lives across the country and I never asked him this particular question.

If you're asking whether the high voltage could possibly destroy/damage your camera, why take the risk using a non-oem $9 battery in a $900+ camera, just to save $40? Is it really much of an issue? No, 0.2/0.4VDC is going to be negligible.
