Don't know much about these but decided to pick up 8 on sale at Midway. USA.

Wildgame Innovations Razor X6.

Some good, some bad thoughts.

$20 each so no great risk.

Hate the little bungees and they only take 1 pic at the time.

Supposed to be real thrifty on batteries.

All are loaded with new batts and 4 gig cards - will start to get them out this weekend.

If they are any good, many will end up in Illinois this September.

All opinions and feedback are valued!

I think they sold out in a few hours - even before I could get a post up.

Sorry...

I tried them on the low and mid settings. The results in the yard test were poor.

I set them all to high and deployed 5 of them a week or so ago.

Will check them next week and determine how they did

These cameras are basically the worst I have ever used.

I am going to have to reach out to WGI.

Short of some update to the software, they are non-deplorable.

Please do not purchase if you get a chance.

My $25 Tasso cams easily outperform these WGI.

Best of luck!

I've got two wgi trail cams, one blade 6 series and a lesser model similar in design that is only 3megapixel, I don't like either of them, battery life is fine, don't have a problem with that, but picture quality is seriously lacking, and they must have an atrocious trigger speed, cause most of the time I have pictures with nothing in them. I'll never buy another WGI product. I have two bushnells and one Browning, all of those are worlds ahead of the WGI's .

I had a Wildjunk camera and it lasted a week. I've had it as a dummy camera for 5 years. Nobody will steal it.

I have never had any luck with this brand.
I could never view the SD cards even with their brand of reader

Please , oh PLEASE, do not try to get help from WGI customer service.

To say they are awful would be a genuine understatement.

I rarely ever attempt to return anything or test a company's customer support but WGI takes the cake.

Back to Moultrie I go, I should have known better.

A deal too good to be true is generally that!
