Going to Mille Lacs for a 3 day weekend with my OVS 500. My battery is good for about a day or so. Staying on the ice so I have no way to charge it.
Can I just hook up a regular 12 volt car battery or is the amperage too hot for the camera? I also own one of those "jumper packs" used to jump dead car batteries, could I use that hooked directly to the wire leads? It would be handier than a car battery. Thanks for your help.
Wasn't terrible at a state park beach. Antelope island maybe. I wouldn't recommend it as a beach destination tho. Figured I was there, I'm getting in it.
The water looked and smelled disgusting with hundreds of thousands of birds sh*tting in there. About as gross as the Salton Sea. When I duck hunted there I didn't even want to touch the water.
It's kinda gross with the algae in the summer but I got in it anyway. Wanted to see the increased bouyancy at work. You can kinda tuck yourself into a ball and you'll just float with your head above water. When dry off you look diamond encrusted with the salt.
We went to the flats too. I dipped a tire on the rental car onto it just to say I’ve been there,but it was still pretty soft from winter melt. After seeing some moron in a BMW suv get dragged out of the muck I had no intention of repeating his stupidity.
