Here's a tip for getting more out of your 6volt battery for your deer feeders for a cheaper price.I'm going to put up a feeder this spring that I wont be able to visit on a regular basis, so I wanted a battery that would last for about 4+ months without worrying about it.. Was thinking about the rechargeable with a solar panel, but I saw that Duracell Quantum came in the size D now.
A 6 volt battery is essentially 4 D size batteries in a nice package. Was wondering how I could duplicate that, but select that batteries I wanted.
Found a 4 D cell battery holder at Radio Shack and decided to use that to hold the batteries. You don't have to use the Quantums, any D size Alkaline batteries will do.
