I bought another one of these after quite a bit of time with my first one. First and foremost, use good batteries, not rechargable. I learned the hard way, rechargable don't have the same voltage. It worked but not without a issues. With proper batteries it's awesome.I've had a camera deployed out in various places in the woods and it's been great. It's even been in extended periods in rain, a lot of rain and the worst thing that happened is moisture on the lens when it's really humid a few times. The pictures and video are just not as clear.It's mounted on a stick so it's usually almost fully exposed.This new one has a few improvements, like a little string to pull the battery cover.Overall, after the last 6 months or so deployed all over, with the same batteries, it hasn't failed once. It's been great to see some of the cool stuff we've seen, but mostly being reliable enough to get good patterns, for example, of hogs. Also to see the big bucks that managed to keep out of sight all deer season until literally days after the season ended.For the price and performance this can't be beat. At this point and the current price, we may deploy another 5-6 across about 500 acres.
