Owner Reviews, Ratings, Comments and Criticism
Hey this is Cody, and I hope people can get something from my review as follows. I'm a huge hunter and have used several 'modern' game cameras for my own use as well as for work (wildlife research).
I have used Wildview, Stealth Cam, Moultrie and Cuddeback Excite.
The Excite seemed to be a great camera for a few months then had a problem with the battery not making connection.
Got a new piece (basically a recall part (but Cuddeback won't admit it)) and it worked better for another 2 months.
Then I needed a new circuit board, got that fixed under warranty.
Then a few months later the camera takes 5 minutes to start and won't transfer pictures so basically the camera is worthless and will cost a lot to fix so it sits not be used.
1.I'll be honest, the Cuddeback has quick trigger times (compared to others I've used).
2. The pictures seem pretty darn good!
3. Battery life seemed decent (although it always had problems)
I would love to rave this camera up as it worked very well when it worked, but with all the cameras i've used I would rather have something that isn't as quick or have as great pictures and saves me time and money and would just work.
I'm directly relating this to the Moultrie I-40. It's a great simple camera, that in most ways doesn't beat others. But the batteries last a long time (3+months) and I haven't had a problem to date ( 8 months)!
Hopefully cuddeback has figured out their problems and if they continue to have problems back up their product for longer periods if they are going to be selling items for $200 or more!
