    So I got a stealth cam Skout 7 for Christmas not this past Christmas but the one before. Its never really worked that well. Today I went to pull the memory card after leaving the camera up for two weeks. In two weeks I had only 9 pictures...not a single picture was of an animal. The area in front of the camera was full of turkey and deer tracks. I have an older stealth cam that works great so I don't know what the deal with the Skout is. At least now I have an excuse to buy a covert now.

    I too made the switch from stealth cam to covert. So far I haven't looked back.

    I have also had bad luck with Stealth Cam. I purchased 2 of them 2 years ago and neither one of them work anymore; I just figured it was my dumb luck. I have 3 Coverts and 0 complaints; we’ll see how they hold up.

    Stealth has the worst camera's in the industry and their customer service is pitiful. I had a camera that was in warranty and because they didn't respond to my calls and e-mails the warranty ended and I had no recourse. Stay away from them like the plague.

    Pretty much this. I dealt with Stealth Cam for about 2 years until i switched to Moultrie/Cuddeback. That customer service sucked as well...now its Cover and only Covert. I will never buy another brand of trail camera.
