Anyone use them??? Thoughts??

I have 2... RUN FROM THEM

Bought one today fro. What I seen today I think your right.

Found part of the problem today. Color of the map on the box is linked to the cell carrier. make sure you get the right one

Do y’all have unlimited data plans in the US? We don’t in Canada. There have been some horror stories of these bad boys racking up some massive bills unbeknownst to a new user.

This one has a free unlimited 30 day trial then you can buy unlimited for 10
A month each camera or up to 10 cams unlimited for 80 a year.

Most use either Verizon or AT&T, usually denoted by a V or A in the model name. A buddy got 4 of the SpyPoint Link Micro 4G cameras and had a hard time getting them to connect to the network, even in an area where cell phones showed a decent signal.

Yeah I'm not to impressed but I will give it a few days before making my final judgment. I do have the old standby also working so I will be able to see what this thing missed. Lol

It should still take pictures and save them to the SD card even if it isn't transmitting them, right?

I have a Moultrie XA-7000i that I'll be using as a traditional trail camera until October rolls around. I plan to put it up facing a scrape dripper over a mock scrape in an established scrape line to hopefully let me know when the daylight activity is consistent so I can go hunt it. It's a 2 hour drive so I can't possibly hunt it every day, so I'm hoping this can give me an edge.

I like the pricing of the SpyPoint plans over Moultrie. The cheapest Moultrie plan is $4 or $5 per month for up to 100 images with no way of pausing or suspending the transmission.

I've been running a couple SpyLink Dark Verizon models in some remote mountainous areas where you only get cell signal in certain sweet spots. I'm using the optional external antenna to get 2-3 bars signal strength. I've been fairly impressed with the triggering sensitivity and photo quality. Make sure you realize that the photos sent to your phone app are much lower resolution than the ones kept on the SD Card to save on data fees, they still work to identify animals but you wont see great detail until you go pull the card and copy the original images/videos.

I just pulled up the app to check and one has been out for 3 weeks, taken 284 pictures, normally reports 3 bars of signal strength and the lithium batteries I put in are still reporting at 100% charged right now.

I think a lot of satisfaction will come down to your signal strength (pick Verizon or ATT based on the best coverage in the area where you'll put the cameras) and respectively how quickly and reliably you need to receive the images. I generally get them within a few minutes of them being taken in my situation if set to immediately send, but I normally set it to only send every couple hours to preserve battery. Also, make sure you understand the model specific features if you want much control over types of triggering/video, frequency of sending photos, doing time lapse, etc as there are big differences as you step up in price.

I read pretty mixed reviews so wasn't sure when I bought them but so far I'm pleased.

I got mine from trailcampro.com and they have a 90 day return window and 2 year warranty so you dont even have to deal with the manufacturer, so pretty low risk, and they were helpful with questions before I ordered.

I been using the Spypoint Micro. I use them a lot for ADC work watching holes where animals coming out or not coming out. Works slick. Saves me a lot of gas. Also on customers yards I can put out over night see exactly whats the nusaince animal causing damage and message them before next morning without driving there to check the card makes selling jobs easy. Luckily in my area the signal strength is very good and knock on wood no problems.
