- Compatibility is limited to 6V or 12V battery setups, so it may not fit every feeder or camera power system.
- Installation is described as simple, but it still depends on having a suitable mounting location with enough sunlight exposure.
- Alligator clips attach to spring top or F-tab batteries, which is convenient but may not match every battery terminal style.
