Wildgame Innovations Terra XT 2.0 Trail Camera Review
The Wildgame Innovations Terra XT is a camera that has a very fast trigger and recovery. This camera will continue taking photos before transmitting them, unlike some other cameras that won't take another unit transmitted. This is a great option for not missing much. - TCP Staff

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!
