No scheduled photos/reports

Camera has been working really well for last several months. Until 2 days ago. It quit sending me my 8pm scheduled photo. Same thing yesterday as well. Today i did not get my 6am Status Report, nor my 8am and 2pm scheduled photos.

I was on the property at my camera site last night until 6:30...sent photos fine while i was there. Last photo taken was of 2 deer at 7:30 pm. No other photos or status reports since.

Model is US701. Power is 5.1V based on last status report. 32G Sandisk (10). Service through USCC. Signal is 5 bars. 8 premium credits remain in my account.

I typically shut the camera off when i get out there so i dont have to look at photos of myself. Left on yesterday due to the missing reports/photos. Worked fine but came through the portal in "clumps" but smoothed out. Then i did shut camera off for a bit and turned back on as normally done.

    5.1 is getting low for batteries especially if they are lithium. Missing scheduled events is one of the signs that your batteries are going to need replacing soon.

    What is the typical voltage? I am having the exact same problem on my 3G, and my last status report showed 5.7 on lithiums.

    Lithiums sometimes show full power until they die. No warning at all. If you have any pictures with P3 on the info strip, it’s time to change lithiums.
