Not sure if it was mackem or not I bought a box of them from china Wr but they didn’t send pics or footage back to a phone,I have had one or two experiences of extreme good fortune thanks to being able to watch real-time footage sent from a spypoint,helps to know who,when,why,where and what with audio and visual.

mackem 26,925 Posted November 23, 2023 Report Share Posted November 23, 2023 But not in the same league as a Spypoint. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mackem 26,925 Posted November 25, 2023 Report Share Posted November 25, 2023 In a store at the moment,Black Friday sales on all of the latest cellular cams that send footage and pics direct to your phone. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ands 547 Posted November 25, 2023 Report Share Posted November 25, 2023 Worth looking at the 4g solar security cams, generally cheaper than the trail cams and you can "move them different directions with the phone app. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Definatly prefer moveable most will automatically track whatever moves infront of them. The solar powered ones are normally fantastic but this time of year - short days and no sun i have to take them home sometimes and charge them. i also have a 40x optical zoom one in our pony field that is powered by a big solar panel charging car batteries- bloody great for wildlife day and night. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I had a solar charged Spypoint,yesterday I saw the new range of cams which you can just plug a solar panel into instead of it being an integral part. Years ago I got an alarm on my phone,I opened the app and in real time saw some chaps who didn’t have my best interests at heart,always good to have a decent cam and be able to hear people chatting lol. Have you a link to the 40X zoom please? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Have you a link to the 40X zoom please? The 40x zoom i bought off the Alibaba site about 2 years back, not even a make/model name. Excellent cam i have it screwed to a high pole- works with the cam hi app (my fav so far) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
