Free: Motion activated wildlife camera (North Town SL6) Expired 271d - You can read what this does on the box. We've decided NOT to keep this (from a friend's house) for the following reasons: 1. It's at least 14 years old & uses what is probably now very old technology. 2. It uses very expensive U2 batteries. 3. The alternative is to buy a waterproof 9v DC supply & connect it up to the mains. 4. At night, it uses a flash to illuminate what it's filming. 5. The internal memory card has small memory although there is additional slot for a larger memory card. 6. Time! So please consider carefully before you request this. Please don't tell me you can collect today or tomorrow. I won't decide on who gets this until Sunday, at the earliest. Collect from near Harrow Lane towards Furze Platt. Thanks. Pat
