I almost threw my spypoint into the river. Had to turn it off and back on after about a week. I have 4 tactacams and love them. I'm about to get a new solar panel for each.

We are talking about using them for recreational purposes and research. Not hunting.

Spartan are the best I've used then Moultrie Edge Pro and Tactacam

Tactacam never buy a Moultrie when It does take pictures it's okay but I'm having to go in once a week cut the power to it let it reset then turn it back on

I like my tacticams I've got one Moultrie left I'm still running it will be replaced by a tacticam next year

Anybody ever heard of gardepro?

I don't run them myself, but I have to chip in on some for club use. They use Muddy. Seems like 1/4 of them go bad quick. The ones that don't go bad quickly continue to operate, after a fashion, indefinitely. 1/4 of the ones they operate seem to actually take pics when it should.

So, Muddy probably isn't very good.

I’ve tried them all with the exception of Reconyx and I like the new Wise Eye cameras that have multi carrier capability. I’m yet to find a spot that I don’t have service. I had to use external antennas on my Spartans in these same areas, that’s why I got rid of them. I run external lithium 15ah batteries and they last 4-5 months of taking videos. The only downside of the red glow Wise eyes (I run no glow cameras now)are they seem to really spook some deer. Most deer do not mind it at all and they will light up an entire food plot. Like has been said, their customer service is top notch too.

I’ve got some of their non-cellular cams. Hard to beat for the money. As for cell cams, I’ve had excellent service out of my Spartans.

Tactacam- expensive, eats batteries but best overall.
Bushnell-cheap, batteries last forever, okay pictures.
Browning- I really like the browning. Takes decent pictures, good trigger speed, good motion detection range. I think the reason I don’t have more than one is because adding another one would require me to bump both cameras to a higher priced plan (I’m doing the cheapest one at the moment that I believe is 9.99 a month for 1500 pics)

I've had one that I run on video for 6 months now hard to beat for the money

Wise eye. These are what I'm replacing all of my tactacrap cameras with. The wise eye has way better picture quality, much better signal and it actually takes pictures/videos when something is in front of it.

i've run 6 moultrie edges for 2 years. only issue is the cloud every now and then will delay. battery options are good...16AAs, a rechargeable lithium pack, or external. been running 12volt externals the entire season and changed only one that was in a weak signal spot. i like the fact they will alternate to the best cell signal.

I run Moultrie edges. Haven’t had any issues out of a single one.
