This is a how to video to add an external battery to your game cameras and stop spending a lot of money on AA batteries. Some of my cameras have been running over a year on the same battery with this mod. Below are links to the parts I used.
UPDATE: I found this pig tail jack pack of 20 and these fit the external battery port perfectly so you don't have to rig it into the battery tray. Also, if you loop the wire over the top of the camera and then plug it in, the raccoons seem to not be able to pull the plug out: https://amzn.to/3Qo8Acl

Some of these links are affiliate links. If you use them, it doesn’t cost you any more, and I might make a small percentage. The tiny revenue I get helps me purchase beekeeping and video equipment so I can keep making videos and improve the quality.
Thanks for your support in helping me continue to produce these videos. Take care.
