[QUOTE="TheLBLman, post: 5395702, member: 1409"] I was just looking at some valid independent comparisons of this Browning Defender Pro Scout Max to the Tactacam Reveal X Gen 2 [B]Pro Scout Max[/B] = 8 AA lithium batteries Taking 15 daytime pics + 15 nighttime pics every 24 hrs ongoing, Battery Life rated at 11.1 months before needing replacing Maximum SD Card Size = 512 gb Trigger Speed = 0.27 seconds [B]Reveal X Gen 2[/B] = 12 AA lithium batteries Taking 15 daytime pics + 15 nighttime pics every 24 hrs ongoing, Battery Life rated at 6.5 months before needing replacing Maximum SD Card Size = 32 gb Trigger Speed = 0.52 seconds [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.trailcampro.com/products/tactacam-reveal-x-gen-2?_pos=1&_sid=013ed145c&_ss=r&variant=40008680570968[/URL] [U]It's a challenge to find a truly valid comparison between the cell cam plans of one brand vs. another[/U]. All plans offer more monthly (or yearly) at a higher price (but lower price per uploaded image). Further complicating any comparison is how some brands greatly discount the pricing for multiple cams, while other brands do not. Then with some brands, the total number of images is "shared" (not limited per cam), while some brands limit the # of images per cam when you have multiple cams. If you're just running a single cell cam . . . . . . .

In this example, you may find Tactacam has the better value for a single cam, while Browning has the better value if using 2 or more cams. Truth is, any particular brand may have the "best value" with a certain number of cams x how many monthly image you upload. I have found that even taking "lots" of pics, I generally do not need the "unlimited" option, but do not like low "per cam" limits. If you have several same brand cams on a single monthly plan, you will typically have one of those cams take more pics monthly than all the others combined, and this may vary as to which cam from month to month. About all you can do is your homework in trying to compare the various pros & cons of different plans from different brands. I personally "like" the pricing methodology of some other brands better than either Browning or Tactacam, but this other pricing is even more confusing to explain, as it's based on a "point" system more than the number of upload images. For me, the "points" system has proven the most economical when using multiple cams on a plan. [/QUOTE]
