This is my intro to the CuddeBack Game Cams. I've used many other brands in the past and have had more negatives than positives with these brands. These CB cams have been in the field for 3 weeks and so far I'm very impressed with them. The setup of the mesh network was fairly easy. The menu setup on the cam presented some options that I've not seen on other cams but after reading the manual, it became clearer what they were used for. These are the first cam's that use D Batteries and I bought the extra battery pack which was very easy to plug into the cam. One online review stated these cam's "eat" batteries but so far I've not seen this. Time will tell how long they last in the field. The day and night pictures have been very clear with time stamps at the bottom of each one which is very helpful. So far I have no negatives to post about these cameras. More to come at a later date. I recommend them.
