    I have three cameras from this manufacturer on my house with wi-fi. I only have a couple complaints and it revolves around SD card and recording and even accessing the camera. There's constant failures every day. I did just install one of the 4G cameras on my vacation property. I would highly recommend making sure you have excellent cell service wherever you decide to put this. Because it's on the T-Mobile Network. It would be nice if they made these cameras work on both cell networks like a lot of functioning trail cameras.

    There is a way to mount the solar panel with a smaller strap. There should be a little plate you can screw into the mounting arm, and then the smaller strap will fit. Not sure if all that came with your camera, but so far it looks pretty similar to their trackmix camera.

These are on a tree and has 100% battery. Solar works and stays charged. Just doesnt send signal. Looking at putting it inside of a tree. Otherwise great camera.

    Hi Jace, Good video. Thanks for doing that. I have a question about viewing your videos. As I understand you only use data in larger amounts when you watch the videos from your app.
    Does the camera send you a thumbnail so that you can see what the video is about before using data to watch the video? For instance, if a coyote is detected and the camera makes a video, I'd rather not watch it. Same with a doe coming through. A thumb nail would let me know if I was going to watch the video or ignore it.

    • @JaseOutdoors
      @JaseOutdoors  Před rokem +1

      Yes, it actually gives you a video thumbnail so I can decide if you want to watch it or not. Takes a lil bit to load them if there's a lot of thumbnails though

    • @JaseOutdoors
      @JaseOutdoors  Před rokem +2

      Mostly in the app is where the difference is. I wouldn't say there's a huge difference between the Go PT PLUS and the keen. There quite a few things different than just the Go PT. Quality is better, the thumbnails are viewable, person vehicle detection , and being able to select the object size motion. Not sure what the price difference is between the two, but if the Keen is only a lil more, I'd def go with that one. Hope that helps

    REOLINK GO PT PLUS NOT COMPATIBLE WITH VERIZON… I spent 2 hours on the phone today attempting to add two REOLINK GO PT Plus cameras to my Verizon account. The IMEI numbers on the cameras would not be accepted on line with Verizon and I got the error message to contact customer support. Customer support told me Verizon would not support these cameras on their wireless network and told me to try two different cameras the names for which the Verizon tech provided. If you want to use your Verizon account to manage these cameras, look for another camera!! Better check with verizon before purchasing these to be sure you can use them if you use verizon.

    Jase, Mbps is not the same as MBps. Mbps with the lowercase "b" is Mega-bits-per-second. If your data plan is 2 GigaBytes, then that is the equivalent of 16 Giga-bits. At 2 Mbps, it would take about 2 hours of continuous video to consume your data for the month.

    🙂Good video and review. But I can't see something important... on the effective quality settings available on the cam, particularly: which resolution at wich FPS? (I would need more than 15 fps). Other question: is it possible to delete some clips on the SD in remote mode with the APP, in order to gain space on the SD itself? At the end: wich kind of file video I will found on the Sd? It will be editable from the normal video editing software like Adobe Premiere ecc? Thank you.

    • @JaseOutdoors
      @JaseOutdoors  Před rokem

      Highest resolution should be set at the highest frame rate 15fps. You can format the SD card from the app but there's really no reason to try and free space. It just records over the previous clips so you'll never run out of room. I believe the clips are MP4 files and are editable in Premiere. That's what I used to put this video together. Thanks for watching

    • @falchindiretta
      @falchindiretta Před rokem +2

      @@JaseOutdoors Thank you, infact I did not well the question.. I intended if it is possible to have 25 fps, for example, at 1080p? And: it is possible to delete from the app a single clip? This because I would put the camera on a high tree for a long period, and deleting single files may create space on the SD, without overwriting files that would be important, and without formatting obviously, to take all the good files at the end of the period.

    • @JaseOutdoors
      @JaseOutdoors  Před rokem +2

      @@falchindiretta 15 fps is the highest frame rate it'll go. I don't believe when you delete a file from the app that it actually deletes the file on the SD card. You'd probably have to turn the overwrite option off and go-to the cam and dump all the files onto a computer. But again, you can save the files you want directly to your phone in high quality so I never worried about the SD card . It just uses up more data on your plan if you're downloading the files from your app

    DAMN, the main question I have was not addressed. Does this camera provide live-view only mode even when it may not be recording at the time you want to live-view with the camera? I can't get anyone to answer this very basic question on all the CZcams videos. At least sir you did address the other question I had that everyone else left out and that was how to get service data without wifi on site? The answer is to get a sim card and a cell provider to hook up monthly service with (just like another cell phone basically but at least the monthly rates seem quite lower with certain sim cards you can go purchase at some cell phone service provider.

    • @JaseOutdoors
      @JaseOutdoors  Před rokem

      Probably aren't getting any answers cause I'm not sure it's understandable. You can have live whenever you want it. It's live. So if something comes in and it starts recording you can login and watch live AND record it. I do it all the time. Though sometimes it takes 2 or 3 times to connect. Hope that answers your question, otherwise I'm really not sure what you mean

    Jase thanks for the in depth review. I've been reviewing their cameras for awhile and grabbing one of these to add to my cameras. I had a couple questions. You touched on it briefly but when does the data plan get used? Is it only when you go live? Or is there a way in the app to preview without a big data consumption? Curious based off your testing of their cams. I guess also you do have some control over how big each motion/clip is. Thank you again. Hopefully their cameras ship sooner than August.

    • @JaseOutdoors
      @JaseOutdoors  Před 2 lety +2

      Appreciate that! The data plan will be used any time you view live or view the clips previously recorded. That's why it's nice that they give you a thumbnail preview now so you don't have to waist data watching something you don't need to. I'm sure it uses an super small amount of data to view the thumbnails as well but so small it probably wasn't worth mentioning. If u keep it on fluent mode it uses very small amount of data.

    • @JaseOutdoors
      @JaseOutdoors  Před rokem

      Tough one to answer. I've zoomed in across a field 200 yards and could tell the difference between a strutter turkey and a hen, so you can easily identify what the object is, but you wouldn't be able to count points on a buck. So I'd bet at 250 yards you could tell the difference between a person or a deer, you just wouldn't be able to tell what the person looks like. Hope this helps

    Question......so the only time its really using data is when you view the videos?
    Can you view parial or does it download the entire video when you hit play? Curious because someone said you get 2 hours of continuous video and where we hunt, tveres bait so i could literally get 2 hours of video every day lol thabks for and clarification.

    • @JaseOutdoors
      @JaseOutdoors  Před 5 měsíci +1

      It uses data when viewing the videos and if you're watching a live view. It plays parts of the thumbnail for you so you don't have to waste clicking the video to see what's in it. Very help for false triggers. If you do hit play you can watch for however long you'd like. Not sure about the two hours of continuous video, it would greatly depend on your sim card plan. Hope that helps!
