Batteries Not Included: What you can use...
Due to shipping safety restrictions, we cannot include batteries.
For powering your Wildlife Cam you can use your own power bank or mains adapter with specification of:

Max.dimensions:  70 mm (w) x 100 mm (l) x 22 mm (d) (including USB connector)

Output: 5v/2A-2.4A, DC

Connection: USB Micro-B cable to plug into the Raspberry Pi.

We recommend the Anker PowerCore 10000 (Input 5V=2A Output 5v=2.4A, 9.2cm x 6cm x 2.2cm) available from Amazon. It's reliable, fits perfectly into the battery holder and allows enough space to connect the cable to the Raspberry Pi.  The Cam Case design provides space for battery upgrades for those wanting extra juice to power your kit for even longer.
