Spypoint Force Pro S 2.0 Trail Camera Review

The Spypoint Force Pro S 2.0 is the only non-cellular camera that we are selling that has an integrated solar panel. This camera also allows the option for 8 AA batteries. You shouldn't have to check on your battery life. This will also come with an SD card. Spypoint has definitely upped their game with the photo quality of these. - TCP Staff

Here are your best battery options:

Trailcampro Choice: XTAR Rechargeable Lithium Batteries

If the Spypoint Force Pro S 2.0 were to take 35-day and 35-night pictures every 24 hours, this camera would last 22.6 months in the field without the solar panel- per charge - on a set of XTAR Rechargeable Lithium AA batteries.

There are a number of benefits to these batteries:

  • Up to 1,000 charges
  • Consistent 1.5 volt operation
  • Charges with the included USB cable charger
  • Eco-friendly (less batteries in a landfill)
  • Batteries pay for themselves after 2-3 charges

Longest Lasting Choice: Energizer Ultimate Lithium

If the Force Pro S 2.0 were to take 35-day and 35-night pictures every 24 hours without the solar panel, this camera would last 34 months in the field on a set of Energizer Ultimate Lithium batteries.

Video Mode

If this camera were to take 15 day and 15 night videos every 24 hours without the solar panel, it would last 2.5 months in the field on a set of Energizer Ultimate Lithium batteries.

Case Design

The Force Pro S features a case design that is quite similar to other Spypoint cameras currently available. While the camera's case feels a bit thin, the large latch is easy to operate. This unit also includes an integrated solar panel.

On the back of the case, you'll find a python bracket for a cable lock and a threaded insert on the bottom for a Slate River Mount. Both the SD card slot and battery compartment are user-friendly, allowing for easy installation and removal of components. Overall, the case design is standard and functions as expected.

 

 Camera Setup

    Setting up the camera is very basic and intuitive. Spypoint recommends formatting the SD card every time you insert it into the camera. You can expect a simple, old-school menu displayed on a large LCD screen, which is easy on the eyes. Navigating the menu is straightforward using the up, down, left, and right arrow buttons.

     

    Durability

    The vast majority of consumer-grade trail cameras are inexpensive, imported devices exposed to harsh conditions 24/7/365.  Most manufacturers only offer a one-year warranty.  We stock only the most durable units and provide an additional year of warranty at no extra charge. The Trailcampro exclusive 2-year warranty allows you to deal directly with Trailcampro avoiding long wait times on hold with the manufacturer and prolonged periods without a replacement camera.  We turn around most warranties in just one business day!
