CROW BUSTER DECOY
Permalink  
 


Hi Guys,
           I've been off line for awhile but that was due to a long bird season and with 4 hunting dogs I gotta justify feeding them!!

                                      How ever my first time out this winter I used my crow buster decoy and had great luck with it!! The boys came in Screaming at it when I had it in my crow tree even if I wasn't calling! I think I'mm gonna get another one I just wish they were a little bigger and more durable!


                                             ANY COMMENTS OR RECOMMENDATIONS??
                                                         Thanks,
                                                          HIZZ!biggrinbiggrinbiggrin

Hey Hizz
Put a thirty foot piece of wire on it with a switch,it will save you batteries and wear and tear,turn on when birds are coming in,shut off when they leave.

once again I have to recommend going wireless... the 30ft wire is easy as pie, I just cant stand unravling wires n stuff.

here is an example of a remote on/off switch.

If I read that correclty, You could wire two devices and use one remote switch to control both. A external battery could be wired into the devices also. The swithc is rated for 12v but should also work with the 3 volts required for the Buster II?

DOOOH you got me, I was having a senior moment... I was thinking about my "project" and forgot not all flappy decoys are 12v.. God what's it gonna be like when I am a senior. confuse.gif

It is cost, and time prohibative to install a battery powered receiver into a battery powered buster... you could, but why.  

If you are electronic, and gadget savvy you could rip apart a cheap RC car or any one of the cheap remote christmas doodads on the market and engineer something..

As I am always tearing things apart and tinkering, I will investigate and report anything I find for a 3v sollution...

Thanks for catching that 8F... for now I would follow SHANEDOGS suggestion. worship.gif

Why not just put an intermittent timer on it, they are cheap, and treble the battery life at least
