What Experts Agree On

What Experts Love

  • Now $99.99, down from $149.99, which makes a no-glow camera with a built-in review screen one of the better-value single cameras here.
  • A 0.42 second trigger paired with a solid detection circuit and a 96 ft flash and detection range means it rarely misses a subject crossing the frame.
  • True no-glow IR lights subjects out to roughly 80 ft at night with zero visible flash, which keeps the camera itself hidden from people scouting the property.
  • Integrated GPS plus a built-in 2 inch LCD screen lets you review captures and confirm aim at the tree, and both AT&T and Verizon SIM cards ship in the box.
  • Runs about 3.6 months on 12 AA lithium batteries at a typical 15-photo daily schedule, with a 12V external battery jack for indefinite runtime.

Common Criticisms

  • At about 3.6 months the AA battery life is only average for the category, so high-traffic sites need lithium cells or the external 12V option.
  • It is an older-generation body than Tactacam's Reveal X 3.0 and Pro 3.0, so it lacks the newest auto-carrier and over-the-air firmware features.
