I have found that the cellular cams operating costs are actually cheaper than what I use to have to do with the many trips to the properties to change out cards and to change batteries. Thank you solar panels and LI batteries and most of all the instant notification of what is in front of the camera . The recent fuel situation and increase in that cost also makes owning a good cell system more attractive.
This is a very good point. It cost me from $15-20 in fuel to drive to the hunting property and back. Then you figure 2 hours of my time. If I go once a month, the camera plan is paid for. However, I do still need to make occasional trips to feed the critters. Also frequent camera visits leaves your scent in the field.
Who can say they don't get excited every time the game camera goes off on your phone? That excitement alone is worth the cost.
