Tactacam External Solar Panel With Integrated Rechargeable Lithium Battery
QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
Ask a Question-
I there a way of getting the solar panel to charge the camera internal battery pack so that both the battery in the solar panel and the battery pack in the camera stay charged. This would be a game changer for game cameras. There should be a way of having the solar panel able to charge the battery pack in the camera or even adding a port on the battery pack to add a 2nd solar panel.
The solar panel has a battery built in to store the charge throughout the daylight hours. There is no current way to charge the separate battery pack with the solar panel though. We are not the manufacturer of these models though, so they may have plans for something like that in the future that we are unaware of.

Will the solar panel keep charging the battery if the camera has been turned off?
Yes the battery it charges is within the solar panel so it will charge to full regardless if a camera is even attached.
-
So does the solar panel charge the batteries in the camera if they are rechargeable?
No, the solar panel charges the built in battery pack within the solar panel itself. Any batteries within the camera will take over should the solar panel battery be depleted, but the panel won't charge those.
