I have had this camera for several weeks now. I followed the step-by-step instructions on setup, and had no problems getting them to work. The instructions were easy to follow.
I bought the two-pack of these cameras to use in my chicken pen, after I lost two pullets in one night, one the next night, and one a few nights later.
I mounted them to posts inside the pen, facing the open, brush loaded land behind my property, in order to determine what was killing my chickens, and how the heck it was getting inside. The very morning after I installed them, the two cameras picked up what looked to be a raccoon frat party on top of the coop, in the feed house, and all around the pen. One camera caught a raccoon pulling the chain link fence away from the frame and squeezing through. Another caught several others waiting their turn to gain entry. And every one of them did.
That day I “shored up the defenses” and overnight the one camera showed a possum at the same spot in the fence (that I had secured), but the other showed a raccoon sitting on top of the coop after a previous clip showed him working on the coop latches.
I’m happy to say that it has been three weeks now since the cameras caught anything other than blowing leaves, bugs, or chipmunks in the pen.
The images were AMAZING and the night vision was crystal clear as well.
We recently had three days where it has rained as if some giant being was standing over us and just emptying a huge bucket of water. These cameras have been exposed continuously to heavy, torrential rain, 90+ degree temperatures, and chickens pecking at them. No water has gotten inside, and there appears to be no damage on the casings from the chickens.
They come with a pretty long strap so they can be mounted on a decent sized tree, and also come with i dividual mounts that can be screwed into posts or other objects. They also each come with 32 GB SD cards (not the micro SD), so this is an excellent value.
I am actually contemplating a second purchase to enhance the security around my property. Excellent product and an excellent value!
