Geaux-To Cell Camera?

I love my WiseEye's. They work well, ultra clear pics, and customer service is out of this world. Coming from Reveal, it was a huge gamechanger across the board. What y'all running?

I went to wiseeyes as well. They are the best I’ve had.

How are they price-wise compared to Tactacam?

I can honestly say I’ve never had an issue with any of the dozen tactacams I own, and have probably 40 shared with me that run fine. I’ve always used the memory cards they recommend and have them all on external power. Not gonna fix it if it isn’t broke.

I have five spy points and finally switched to get one wise eye last year. Love it, and the spy points are going in the trash as the fail by year 3, as they do.

Honest question. Is the cost increase worth it? I've personally never cared much about the quality of a photograph as long as I could see it had horns on its head.
Also, how many cameras do you run?

I don't find the wiseeye are significantly more expensive than spy point. And they are definately worth the money. I ran spy points for years. Such a pain in the arse they were.

I have both WiseEyes and Tactacams. I don't have issues with either brand and I haven't had any bad service issues and when I call I get fast help.
The new 4.0 Tactacams look every inviting, I haven't looked at the new model WiseEye yet

I had a WiseEye last year on some land that’s 4 hours away, it just all of a sudden stopped sending pictures.
SPYPOINT same shite.
They both had lithium batteries with 70-80% battery life

If a lithium battery is showing anything less than 90-100%, it’s dead. It doesn’t tail off like alkalines.
You will go broke putting batteries in any of them. Solar panels pay for themselves quickly, and any brand can be hooked up to a 7ah battery that will run it for months and then can be recharged.

10-4 I’m going to use a solar panel this year, I had one on a feeder last year and it worked great.
It’s a pain in the arse trying to monitor property four hours away.

A lot of those are Chinese knock offs of name brand lithiums and will cause more problems. All of these modern game cams are made to run on lithiums.
It is stupid easy to rig up a feeder battery in an ammo can. A 7ah lithium is $25 and will run it for two months straight on instant send even over a feeder getting hundreds of pics a day.

Two of my tactacams have knockoff lithium battery packs in them and they are the two that aren't registering the solar panel that I have attached.

I’ve got 5 wise eyes. I turned service off after they all quit working at the same time. Was checking them mouth the other day and one has the battery contacts falling apart. 4 still turn on. I will call customer service and see what they can do tomorrow.

Wise Eye and Reconyx. Those two are head and shoulders above the rest.

I run over 30 cams in three states. Long term power is my specialty considering the further away it is, the more power it needs.
In shaded places, largest 12v I can afford. I normally buy a mower battery at WM for $36 and a $10 wire.
In open areas with loads of sun I use a large trailcam solar panel and i use an internal lithium power pack if available in that cam.
When your cam quit sending, what did the battery level say on the very last pic you received?
Also did you contact their tech support?

I got some muddy trail cams for dirt cheap. Gonna try those. Have not heard much about them but for as cheap as I got them, (3 cell
Cams for 30 bucks) couldn’t not try it. The rest of the baws use tactacams. I’m also interested in the Moultries. Anyone heard anything on them?
