Camo Jacket Complete, Now I Should Get At Least 40% Longer Battery Life.

[John-Edmonton]

Finished most of the camo jacket last night, but the pepper jerky did complete it's drying and was it ever delicious! Tonite I finally got it complete. Hopefully, it will help keep it in good shape.

I plan on slipping in a couple of hot pacs, one on each side of the detector beside the location where the batteries are located. This should help keep the batteries toasty, and get about 40% longer life in cold conditions. Cold batteries just don't put out the power and will sometimes force you to put in a set of new warm ones to keep hunting. I have used hot pacs on most of my detectors with great results!

Hell man , I'm from Mississippi,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, we don't worry about batteries getting cold, since we don't come out of the house until temps are over 40 degrees F ............ excellent idea , if I ever get that brave !!!!
