Trailcampro Analysis

 

Picture Quality:  Testing in Progress

Photo resolution: 16 interpolated mpxl

Video resolution:  1280 x 720

Flash Type:  No glow IR

We are placing cameras in the field. We will post pictures and videos as they become available.

[powr-image-slider id=180b66b3_1502476192]

Battery Life: 55/100

Picture & Video Resting Power (on):   3.65 mW

Picture Daytime/Nighttime Power Consumption:  1.28 Ws |  5.01 Ws

Video Daytime/Nighttime Power Consumption: 32.27 Ws | 304.61 Ws

Battery life is efficient in picture mode but extremely inefficient in video mode.

Picture Mode

If this camera were to take 35-day and 35-night pictures every 24 hours, the Wildgame Mirage 16 would last 6.7 months in the field on a set of 8 AA Lithium Batteries. We consider this to be good battery life.

Video Mode

If this camera were to take 15-day and 15-night videos (30-second videos / this is the only length of video Wildgame allows) every 24 hours, it would last 0.7 months in the field on a set of lithium batteries. This is very poor.

Detection Circuit:     65/100

Picture Trigger & Recovery Speed: 0.48 s. / 7.4 s.

Video Trigger & Recovery Speed:  1.76 s. / 7.6 s.

Detection Range:  80 ft.

Trigger speed in picture mode is fast, but picture recovery, video trigger, and video recovery are all slow.

Detection range is 80 ft. This is an outstanding detection distance.

Quality of Design:     Testing in Progress

Dimensions: n/a

Battery Type:  8 AA Batteries

External Battery Jack:  n/a

Trailcampro's 2 Year Warranty | 90 day Return Policy

Trailcampro 90 Day Return | 2 Year Exclusive Warranty Details 

If you purchased your trail camera from us (Trailcampro.com), here are the following warranty stipulations. If you purchased from another retailer, we recommend contacting that retailer or the manufacturer of that product for their warranty details.

If You Purchase From Trailcampro.com

We attempted to make our return policy and 2-year exclusive warranty as simple as possible.  However, there are a few stipulations.

90 Day Returns

You may return or exchange anything purchased from Trailcampro for a full 90 days from the date of purchase. Please use the items as you normally would and much as you like subject to the rules below.

Our return policy lets you field test products, at no risk to you!

  • Buyer's remorse? Return the camera to us for a full refund (minus shipping).
  • Purchased the wrong camera? We will ship you the right camera.
  • Something wrong with the camera you received? We will replace it at no cost to you.

90 Day Return Policy Rules:

  • 90 days from date of purchase.
  • In order to receive a full refund, items must be returned with their original packaging (including UPC code) and all contents
  • Cameras or products must be returned in their original condition.  You cannot write on the cameras, paint them or deface them in any way.  This completely voids the warranty with both us and the specific manufacturer.
  • If you purchased one of our "Package Deals" and only return part of the package, we will refund the items full price minus the package discount.
  • Orders with quantities of 5 or more are not eligible for a refund or exchange.  They are still eligible for warranty replacement.
  • There are no returns on used cameras or cameras that clearly state "No Returns"
  • If you are returning for a refund, you are responsible for return shipping.  Your refund amount will be minus the cost of the initial shipping to you.

2 Year Warranty

We strive to make our customer experience superior to anything available.  Traditional warranties only last a year and must be processed directly through the manufacturer.  This process usually involves frustrating minutes on hold with call centers and oftentimes weeks, if not months of down time waiting for your replacement product.  We process our warranties in-house and expedite the replacement process. When you call Trailcampro you'll speak directly with an expert who will immediately identify the problem and offer a solution. 

2 Year Exclusive Warranty Details: 

  • Warranty starts from the time of purchase and continues for a full 2 years.
  • Replacement cameras receive the remainder of the 2-year warranty leftover from the original purchase.
  • Warranty is only valid for full retail priced orders (quantity discounts void our 2-year warranty). Discounted items still receive the manufacturer warranty.  Price matches void the 2-year warranty as well.  
  • If your defective camera has been discontinued, we will exchange it for a similarly priced item to your liking.  
  • If you have a 3G cellular trail camera, it is not considered manufacturer defect if you lose 3G reception in your area.
  • Used cameras do not apply for our 2-year warranty
  • Cameras cannot be marked on, damaged, or defaced in any way.  Warranty is for manufacturer defect only.  Defect does not include damage, whether intentional or not.

If you have any questions that were not answered here please feel free to contact us.

To warranty a camera please use the form below.  Upon receipt of an RMA number, you will need to ship the camera back to us.  You will be responsible for the shipping charges of the defective camera back to us.  We will ship the replacement back to you for free.
