[QUOTE="TheLBLman, post: 5722470, member: 1409"] Tactacam's popularity has been driven by their lower initial price point when they first came out @ 3 yrs ago. At that time, their $99 cell cam was somewhat comparable to competitors' $150 - $200 cell cams. But since then, competition is producing better for less expense. My biggest complaint of Tactacams is their relatively slow trigger speeds and relatively short battery life. Just saying, if one make uses 12 AAs and battery life is 6 months, while another uses 8AAs and battery life is 12 months, do the math. I've been most satisfied with Brownings & Ridgetecs [U]for their respective initial price points[/U]. Browning's current best model cell cam is now at a lower initial price point than Tactacam's best, and the Browning is imo far superior, especially with longevity. If you're running 3 or more cell cams, both the Brownings & Ridgetecs have less costly ongoing monthly plans, making both overall less expensive to use than the Tactacams. Don't just look at upfront cost at point of purchase. Consider the ongoing costs of batteries and monthly plans, as well as the expected lifespan of the cam. [/QUOTE]
