The Moultrie MFHP12406 6V Rechargeable Battery eliminates the constant expense and hassle of disposable batteries for wildlife feeders. This sealed lead-acid battery delivers consistent power output throughout extended feeding cycles, ensuring reliable operation in remote locations where feeder maintenance visits are infrequent.
What Makes This Different
Unlike standard alkaline batteries that lose voltage as they discharge, this rechargeable unit maintains steady 6-volt output until depletion. The sealed construction prevents acid leakage and corrosion damage to feeder electronics. Deep-cycle design allows hundreds of charge cycles while maintaining capacity, making it significantly more cost-effective than disposables over time.
Key Features
- 6-volt sealed lead-acid construction for consistent power delivery
- Rechargeable design reduces long-term operating costs
- Leak-proof sealed housing protects feeder electronics
- Deep-cycle capability for extended service life
- Compatible with Moultrie automatic feeder systems
- Weather-resistant black housing for outdoor applications
- Standard terminals for easy installation and connection
Field performance proves reliable across temperature extremes common in outdoor environments. The battery maintains adequate voltage for timer operation and motor function even during cold weather when alkaline batteries typically fail. Hunters report consistent feeding schedules throughout hunting seasons without mid-season battery changes. The rechargeable design particularly benefits remote feeder locations where battery replacement requires significant travel time.
