I do know if you add one of those spinner attention getters or even a bigger speaker for more volume you will eat battery power pretty fast. I would think cold would kill batteries to. When I call in the cold I use a flexible camo colored 6 pack cooler to put my caller in along with a few hand warmer packs. Remember "Forbidden Fruit makes many Jams"

My mother got some cheap call with only a few sounds on it that was actually easier on batteries and seemed to call coyotes in fine, but not as versatile and I don't know the brand, something Chinese. The ability to download and add a huge variety of calls to the Foxpro is nice.

And a lot easier to lug around when running and gunning. Megapredator ... top of the food chain! Member of WTA Member of MTPCA Member of NTA

Otherwise here and there for a stand or two. I still haven't replaced the first four AA batteries. Follow me on YouTube if you’re bored https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC5Ulx1woYMmCN3IPLB0wwFw

I am running the Shockwave model. I always buy the fox pro Rechargeable batteries. Spend the money get a brand that's been a round for a while.

I found it on sale for about 100$ shipped. It is WAAAYYY easier on batteries than my Foxpro and probably louder. However, it is limited to 12 sounds, but it calls coyotes just as well it seems to me. It is a lot simpler to use the remote is maybe the biggest plus to me.
