    I’m at 6 months no charging with their panel and 12 eneloops

          I have had the best luck with the solar panel from covert. a little expensive but has worked the best so far.

                    Assume this hooks directly into your camera and you only need rechargeables?

                    Covert told me you also need a 6v battery...so I am confused.

                        No 6v battery required. I have mine hooked directly to the camera.

                          Ok. Weird.

                          I always assumed the panels charged a battery and not the internals.

                          Covert just told me you need to buy a 6v battery that goes into the solar panel pouch

                              I just had a chat with their customer service before I purchased the panel and was told it is a plug and play along with rechargeable batteries

                                There must have been a misunderstanding somewhere. All that you need is 12 AA rechargeable batteries and the covert solar panel. We run over a dozen cameras with this setup and I could not be more impressed.
