12V Lead Acid Battery (Recommended for extended field life)
To avoid replacing batteries when out in the field, the STC-I590 is
equipped with an external power jack designed to accept a barrel plug
cable that attaches to an optional lead acid battery (Stealth Cam STC12VBB). Complete 12V Lead Acid battery kits offer significantly more
usage than standard alkaline batteries. They are available at your
Stealth Cam dealer, or call toll free (877) 269-8490. Only Stealth Cam
external battery accessories are recommended.

Built-in Memory & SD Memory Card Installation
Your STC-I590 camera is equipped with 32MB of built in flash memory.
The camera is also equipped with an expandable media card slot
capable of accepting up to a 2GB SD card (sold separately). With no
memory card inserted into the slot, the camera will use the built in flash
memory to store images. If an SD card is inserted into the slot, then
the camera will bypass the built in memory and utilize the SD card
memory. The front counter display will show the number of images of
either the built in flash memory or the inserted SD memory card after
you turn on the camera.
