Does the new Camera PowerPanel recharge the D-cell batteries in the camera?
No, the Camera PowerPanel will not recharge the internal D-cell batteries. The PowerPanel is a separate power source. When there is not enough power coming from the PowerPanel, the camera reverts to using the D-cell batteries until the PowerPanel builds up enough power to take over again as the primary power source. When using the PowerPanel for the first time, it needs to be powered on and placed in direct sunlight for at least 8 to 12 hours before first use. NOTE: Moultrie’s PowerPanel is compatible with 2007 and later Moultrie models only.
