I had excellent service with Browning wireless cameras last year . I had to call customer service twice with questions because I’m not very good with electronic devices and both times I was pleasantly surprised when I spoke a very friendly and helpful lady in Alabama. It means a lot to me to call CS and not have to try to communicate with someone in India that can barely speak English

@ tacti cams, want 2 more, they work great, get the pics right now , night time needs to be close to the deer, don't use delay and I use 3 timed.
Batteries last a long time.

SPYPOINT sucks. I’ve had nothing but problems with them. Avoid at all costs.

This X 1000

I’ve got some Cuddeback Cuddelink cellular cameras I’ve had really good luck out of. Sends all pics across a wireless network through each camera and then to the main hub. Then the main hub sends them over cellular to your phone/email.

I'm sorry to hear this. I just bought a Spypoint. It is working for now.

I have some cell cameras.

Best ones are my Stealth Cams. Long battery life. Work the settings from the app.

Have one at a supplemental feeding area at the back of the ranch, and one at the front gate.

What area of PA is your place? I'm in Warren County
Potter County East of Coudersport



I ended buying 2 Moultrie Delta's, been 6 weeks on the batteries and they are 60% power level.

I have the SPYPOINT link micros (4), two of the SPYPOINT cell links to turn old cams into cell cams and two of the tactacams (one original and one X). All of them work, the SPYPOINTs can be a little grainy compared to the tactacam, but I can pull an hd pic if I see something I want more detail on. The tactacam has the HD request as well but the pics haven’t been as clear. I had one of the SPYPOINTs stop taking pics but a quick firmware update got it working again.

Nice thing about the SPYPOINTs is I don’t have to buy a plan if it takes less than 100 pics a month. Unfortunately at my place that is the case 90% of the time. The times I go over I just wait until the next month starts, usually in a few days.

I switched from Spypoint to the Cuddeback connect wireless system. I’ve only got one spot on my place I can get signal so that’s where the hub goes, and then I run the other cameras in other spots. I’ve got 2 cameras set at about 500-600 yard intervals and they transmit to the hub fine through thick brush.

I would waste the gas to set my spypoints on fire. I disliked them so much that I refuse to sell them to someone else. They work fine for a regular trail camera, but the signal sucked, their system sucked worse, and the customer service is less than worthless. Eff you see kay - Spypoint.

Colorado now says you can't have a wireless trail cam in your hunt area active the day before, or the day of, your hunt. So, I just take them down the day before I intend to hunt at the farm, put them back up when I leave.

We have WYSE cameras that are on WIFI. The camera is a few feet from the back of my house. There is a base station in the house [WIFI to network]

The cameras are so cheap it is not worth mentioning. The software comes with the cameras.

I will make a 2,000 mile round trip in October to go deer hunting.
It is illegal to hunt in the city where I am now. I am backed up to a park, full of hikers.

I am taking videos of the deer, rabbits, and raccoons, to make sure they are not getting inside the garden fence.
I have bird screens built around the fruit trees.

I use Spartan gocams. Great camera but a little pricey. Just ordered 2 tactacams to try.
