    Okay, for price seems like I might be better of sticking with the Coverts. A big fan of my MP8's being able to find them for 80$

    For now, I would probably go with something a little different. I thought I was going to like the whole set up by bluetooth feature, but it's really a pain in the butt. Everytime you login, It will tell you your time has expired since the last session and you always have to put your login credentials to enter the app and that's the only way you can tell what your battery life, pic count is, etc.

    So I'm approaching 90 days with this camera and I do not recommend at all. I've already taken it out of the field and couldn't connect because it said the batteries may be low. The only way of verifying anything is through their app and it wouldn't recognize the camera to allow me to sign in. I'm going to email/call TCP Monday to see if I can get my money back.

    For 2 -3/4 months in the field and batteries already dead, not impressed at all.

    I used to run dozens of MP-8s for years until I switched to Radix. Solid cams.

    I had a few mp8's also. Solid but I just didn't like the motion blurr on pictures.
