Changed to Tactacam Reveal

[Windlooker]

After comparing my Cuddelink system to Tactacams Reveal Pro 3.0 I switched. I can’t believe I waited so long.

My cudde system was hit and miss with my cams not connecting to the home cam, even with repeaters. The Tactacam searches for the best signal regardless of carrier and connects immediately.

Cudde setup isn’t hard but not easy. Tactacam sets themselves while giving you the ability to set cam settings at any time, from anywhere, via the Reveal app. Really cool. The Reveal app lets you see a map of cam location as they are gps equipped.

I did buy solar panels and noticed Reveal provides stout cam to panel cables that are difficult for critters to chew through. Cudde provided spindly wire that requires an upgrade to a wire mesh covered cable.

Most importantly the Reveal takes way better pics. Provides the ability to see detail needed for age, antler mass, etc.

The only downside is it’s more expensive. I went from running 9 cuddes for $385 for the year to nearly $600 per year for 5 Reveals as each cam must be activated separately. No link system.

There’s a bunch more features I won’t bore everybody with, but I wish I made the switch sooner.

Did u have the newest L cameras for Cuddeback? I run those and have really good luck. But to run 25 cameras- it’s $385 where it would be around $2500 a year if I had to do individual cameras.
Is the solar power on the Tactacams holding up fine? Was curious how that works out and if it can stay powered all year. My buddies own Tactacam & good to hear. I haven’t tried em just cause of the individual plans I’d have to get but sure open minded.

I had a bank of G series and L. No doubt L worked much better. Of my nine I’d say 3 were hit and miss connecting with repeaters. Not sure about Tactacams solar panels. I literally just put them out. I will give an honest update as I did have good success with the Cudde panels. As you said Tactacam is more expensive and I did cut the number of cams I’m running. Couldn’t justify it.

I’ve been running the Tactacam solars for multiple years in a row now without touching them, zero batteries in the cam as the solar system has its own lithium battery. Run perfectly still.
