Tacticam Reveal

Peeps

5 year old buck +
I ordered 2 of these after reading reviews. Anyone that has them what are any tips you have or preferred settings? I am assuming I can set them up and test them at home and then turn them off and Later turn them back on at my hunting land and they should be set to go.
 
This is how I currently have mine set up. Delay would depend upon where you have it set up of course. Expect blurry pictures on faster moving targets, day and night._20200928_070248.JPG
 
I noticed it got cut off. I have the sensitivity set on "high" , and send type on "timely".
 
My pics to phone improved tenfold when switching to rechargeable batteries instead of alkaline. I will use lithium when cold weather hits. I'm set on no delay which they said would fire a pic every 5 seconds. That should also give the camera flash time to reload on night pics. Tamarack how's your pics on the lithiums? Peeps I set my lone camera up at home then took it out. I am impressed with the flash even on low power. Mine is set on a quarter acre food plot in the timber so there is background. The difference between men and boys is the price of there toys.
 
I have a couple questions, how much are the data plans? And is there an option to have it text the pictures to your phone, or only through their app?

Question I have that I can't find an answer to anywhere online is whether or not the camera requires a mobile plan to operate. Several brands of cell cams require one to even use the camera, so if you decide you no longer want to pay for the cell plan, the camera is worthless. I'm hoping the Reveal is not like that. Anyone know for sure?
 
goatman, I'm around 2000 pics so far with this first set of lithiums. I'm hoping to be able to get thru Fall and early winter on just one more change of batteries. Some others here have been using them longer maybe they'll chime in.

4wanderingeyes, plans are listed here: https://www.revealcellcam.com/data-plans
So far only can get pics via the app.

Hoytvectrix, I read somewhere that you are able to use it w/out a mobile plan. I sent them some questions and that's one I'm waiting for a confirmation on.
 
Their response was yes, it will still take pictures without a plan or if you suspend it(option in the app).
On the black flash they don't know, to just keep watching for it. I'm betting they're shooting for a pre Christmas release
 
Tamarack how has the trigger speed been for you? I see you have it set for 1 pic. Is it capturing the deer pretty centered with where you have it aimed with that first pic? I was originally thinking of setting it for 2 pics thinking it sends the second pic and maybe it would be more centered but if you have had good luck with 1 pic that would save battery.
 
I have it set at high sensitivity if that makes a difference but it varies. Faster moving ones close up it'll be centered but a bit to extremely blurry. Those would probably give you a blank pic on the second etc. Further out it'll pick them up way on the left or right if they're just walking around- usually the full deer/critter though. Then of course more centered if they keep walking towards in front of the cam. In-between those ranges it does a decent job of centering them. Probably 99% of the pictures I get are of them just walking around/by so one picture is enough. Maybe during the rut I'd change it..with them running around. Finally grabbed the card so I'll post some pictures in a bit in the photos section. Wish I'd have kept the blurry and other examples of what I mentioned there.
