Battery Life Is Crazy

[1966Corvair]

Batteries keep dying really quickly....

I have a camera 5 outside around the house, the cameras are all set for Best Battery Life. 7 days ago I changed all the batteries with Surefire 123A. Today 3 of the 5 camaras are showing 22% battery life, and 2 are showing 98%.

I live in Michigan and its 30* average this past week, I get the cold can effect battery life, but why such a difference between cameras?

 What is going on and can anyone help??

Try rebooting the base and see if the display is the same. If so, try opening and closing one camera's battery door.

OT- I've had 2 Corvairs - a '61 and a '62. Always wanted a 2nd gen one. A Monza convertible would be fun but needs a 4 speed, not auto.

Thank you for the response. I’ll try rebooting it. Hope it works.

Ps. I personally worked 12 years bringing back to life a 1955 Packard, the 1966 Corvair 500 4 door belongs to my wife, it only took 9 months to bring it life from being stored in a barn for 39 years. Lots of work, had to replace everything due to rust and fluid in all the lines, but the wife likes it.
