Same for me. It tends to happen on one camera we have at the bottom of a hill along the creek.

Cuddelink L series Q & A

Here are the same cameras that I commanded photos from around the same time. Not sure if adjusting the led power made the difference or what.
On another note, these pictures are being commanded to take photos around 7-8 pm but are not being taken until almost 1 am. I’m not sure when they are going to the app because I’m obviously asleep. The cell home has good service and all cameras have a link level of 38 or above. Cell rate is set to 1 hour.
I have had the cameras running for a couple days and so far it has only sent pictures once to my email, all other times it goes to app. Not a big deal as long as it is sending them somewhere but I thought that might be inconsistent? Yesterday under “my devices” it had my cell home camera ID as one of my remote cameras while its nickname was of the actual cell home. It is back to being correct today. Just seems a little buggy..

those fuzzy pics are almost certainly fog. I'm in the field at night maybe 10 times a year, camp out maybe 20 days a year, and not uncommon to have way more fog than you'd think. When camping, ppl figure it out when they wake up and all the stuff they left outside is soaking wet, or frozen wet during the cold.
I have always had my pics sent to a gmail acct i created solely for these pics. Always have mine set to 1 hr intervals. I too was not getting some pics to my email, but were on the app. I know this sounds stupid, but check your spam. That's where I found mine.
Note that I've seen others (and cuddeback) comment on how certain cell carriers react differently to emails from cuddeback, up to the point where they're blocked. My carrier is T-mobile, and I haven't had an issues like that. Just some emails randomly going to spam out of the blue.
Yes, historically, the system is a little buggy, but imo its still well worth the minor aggravations

Actually I should of known to check spam and didn’t. Of course that is where they were going. Lol. I definitely am liking this system and feel like most of it is me figuring it out but for my property it makes the most sense.

Chaded, I am running into the same issue. My daylight pictures are fine, but night is much like yours, even on what I consider to be a clear night. To test this, I guess I need to walk in front of the cameras on a clear, low humidity evening to test things out. I hope we can both get this fixed. I also double checked to ensure there were no obstructions, such as a branch, dirty lens.

if they are in the app they are being emailed, check your junk file or spam - close will give you the best image but you need something in the background for the ir to reflect off of. commands take a couple connections with the home to take place and then be sent they dont occur in real time.

it appears you have light leak on your black flash, this can be fixed at cuddeback or some have done it themselves with a small piece of foam. Also be sure you are on current firmware as if you are on an old version there was a correction for a halo look that was caused by the ir filter,
I just bought them recently and updated all of them manually before deploying so they are up to date.

John,
Where would the small piece of foam go? I'd be happy to try that before sending it in. I am on 3.3.0/9.3.0 so the firmware should be good.
I have been researching it and it seems there should be foam right below the led bulbs. One of my L series cameras I haven’t deployed yet so i took it apart (5-6 screws) and there is a big gap below the bulbs. I have ordered foam and I am going to take apart all 6 cameras and put the foam in. Hopefully you can tell from this picture. I believe the foam needs to be around 2.5” long, 3/4” high, and 1/8” thick. You can see the gap below the lights and I believe that is letting light get down where the lens is.
