DO NOT WASTE ANY OF YOUR MONEY ON any of their products! MOST POS Stuff ever !! WANT something cheap that works great buy WILDVEIW CAMERAS BEST BANG FOR YOUR DOLLAR!!
I dunno about this post. I have one thats on its 3rd set of batteries this season and its worked flawlessly besides a few whiteout pics at dawn and dusk. However, I talked to the company and they want to replace it with a newer version. Can't beat that for customer service.
Maybe you just got a bad camera out of the box. It's electronic equipment, it's bound to happen sometimes. My Wildgame camera works fine.
My D8's have been great. They are both 3 months old and I have hundreds of shots on each. They are still on the original batteries. Sent from my DROID X2 using Tapatalk
I personally havent had a problem with any of there cameras , there working as good as my 3 year old Multrie's . But , i do have a Halo range finder from them that eats up the CR-2 batteries like crazzy even if you dont use it with in a weeks time the battery is dead till next weekend , i started taking the battery out of it after i'm done every night , but this year i got a new problem with it , you can only see pieces of each of the numbers when its ranging , i doubt i can use it this year , i think i'll just have to through it away , they probally wont warrenty it.
I'm on my second one, first one got replaced because it wouldn't do anything.....the newer one is a year old and actually takes decent pics, I get the white out and black pics when the batteries are getting low.....so I have to replace the 4 c batteries every week...that sucks! Prob won't be buying anymore WG cameras.
I'm on two months with my 6 D batteries in my one Multrie , and today when i went to change out my cards it had 390 pics from this week and still 40% left on the batteries , all i'm using is Energizers , about 3000 pics snapped with them , alot of daytime pics so that helped with the battery power
I just want to say that in my experience that most if not ALL of game cam companies will refund or replace an item that is messing up photos for you. I recently had one that took white out pics all the time forget the name brand but it was returned hassle free and a new camera that works well came in its place. good luck.
I have a D8 and it works awesome. I have a ton of pics as well on original batteries Theres always some in a bunch that may go bad
I have 2 s1.3 cams and they are not worth wasting a set of batterys on. but i have 5 of the x6c cams and they always work and work well. also i have one of the new micro 8 and it it's even better then the x6c,they need to add burst pics and shorter video to this cam and it would rank right up there with my best cams. much better trigger speed and battery life then the x6c cams. The cam industry as a whole needs to test what they sell.
Have 2 of the x6 and like them. ANother place to visit is Chasingame.com Website that analyzes trailcams, doesn't sell anything, just tells you what the camera does. Trigger speeds, battery life, etc. My .02
I wouldn't go as far as to say that all their products are "straight up junk". Yeah most of the electronic stuff is on the lower end of price, therefore you get lower end quality. I believe their main area of expertise is in attraction and they are probably importing cheap cameras in from China and trying to make money on their name. It's unfortunate, but that's the business model that's most common out there today. Buy a camera or electronic device from someone who's main business comes in that product and you'll likely see a different result. Personally, I don't order steak at an Italian restaurant and don't buy cameras from a bunch of guys that made their mark gluing corn and acorns to mineral mix.
Ben/PA is correct. I'd like to add that if you pay sub $100 for a cam, expect sub $100 performance out of it. However, I've found that as of late, some of these cheaper cams aren't too shabby for the price. I'm on that won't pay hundreds of dollars for a cam. Too many bears around here to leave that kind of dough hang off a tree for months. I've had really good luck with the x6c I have and now have a micro 5 red in the woods as well. If it gets destroyed by a critter, I"m not out of a lot. However, I bought these cams knowing full well that they aren't top shelf. But honestly, they've surprised me so far.
I have left a message on Wildgame Innovations facebook page about my range finder from them that i got not quite a year ago with no responce , after no responce i told them i would go buy another one and return the old one that doesnt work in the package as faulty which it is , we'll see if they respond now , reguardless if they do there customer service sucks , by e-mail they dont respond , by phone they dont answer leave a message and no return call , and on facebook no responce , this will be the last item i ever buy from them , i told them i had problems with this rangefinder for months now , my season starts in less than two weeks .
From my wild game innovations cams great pics cameras are over a year old no problems 900 - 1900 pics every two weeks.
