Cellular Trail Cams
Walnuts:
Thinking about buying my son a cam that we can put up on the mountain where he can get pics sent to his phone. Any suggestions on something reasonable?
Do they all have monthly fees?
Will the batteries last through winter?
Thanks
walkabout:
I know there was a topic started about this subject a month or so back with some pretty good information.

I have three SPYPOINT link micro cams. They normally go for around $150. Some of the reviews aren’t the best, but so far I’ve had little issues, compared to the cost.
If you are getting 100 pictures per month or less, there is no fee. Then it tiers up depending on how many cameras you’re running and the amount of hours you select. The setup process is very simple on the SPYPOINT app
The battery usage will all depend on how many pics you’re getting and how often you’re having the camera transmit them to your phone. Lithium batteries cost a bit more, but they’re the way to go for cell cams, if you plan to leave them out for months at a time.

I also have the spypoint cam. I paid 75.00 , for 1 year of pics and i have two cams out. It’s pretty cool to have the pics sent right to your phone.

I've used three SpyPoints all season and am very happy with them, one EVO and two Micros. Just bought two more Micros, Dick's had them for $99 over Black Friday. Pic quality and trigger speed a little better on EVO, but now they offer HD pics for a nominal fee which makes a difference. The data plans are really reasonable compared to the Moultrie Mobil plan I have. $5/mo for 250 pics, $10/mo for 1000, $15/mo for unlimited. if you don't buy a plan you still get 100 pics a month free. Definitely use lithium batteries, mine are still at least 90% from September and I have pics sent instantly. Hope that helps, good luck!
