NO.Will this camera accept 12vdc into the DC5V socket?
I also have 2 841s and one came with a USB charge cable with the 5VDC plug at the other end.
I use my old 7800mAH Bullseye Target Cam USB/Lipo 5V power pack for the camera.
I could have used one of these and a battery. I use them in RC models.
3A UBEC 5V Switching type regulator
OR this really nice one.
Yes and my first attempt was a PITA.Martin777 did you replace the lens in the 841 and was it difficult?
Make sure to mark the "halve" sections so it goes back together in the same orientation.
The video ribbon cable has a fragile latch. Be careful with that latch. Same at both ends.
I'll post a pic of that latch tomorrow.
You have to "open up" a big exit hole for the new lens. Existing lens is very small. You loose the night vision
LED ring and the clear plastic front lens cover. Small pair of side cutters work well for this.
They hot glued the heck out of the exisiting lens but it will chip out of there with
a good pic or jewelers screwdriver.
New lens screws right in and is easy to focus.
16mm lens I used
