The camera was probably pulling on them while stored.

No, that is not normal if the camera was turned off. There would have been some discharge, but they should not have completely died.

Regardless, it's not a good idea to store batteries in a camera that won't be used for a while.

Buy those batterie on Amazon.com and you will save quite a bit.

atleast your's didn't melt the camera like they did my Tv remote. then that's a nuther 40 bucks to Dish to get new one.sorry to hear them going dead thou that's sucks i would call the company and see what they say.

but the best battery's i found for my cameras are them rayovac maximum they seem to last alot more then any other i found LOL.

Lithium batteries should have a 10 year shelf life, something had to drain them.

I use lithium batteries in my flashlights since they sit around for long periods of time but I want them to work without searching for batteries to put in them. Everything elsewhere I just use rayovac batteries and take them out when not in use.

The camera. Is a wildgame cam model wg6x or something and was playing with it....the cam takes 8 AA batteries.....the kick is if you label top to bottom 1-8 ......you can take battery 1 and 4 out and the cam still works and operates fine so its running on 6
