E5 GuardePro

[Mr.Bro]

Found this on Amazon for $39.
Wow what can I lose.
All my test are in a neighborhood with plenty of light so flash brightness is impossible to see
Hoping it would match my A60s.
Good news. Probably the best most vivid video of ant camera.
Bad news. About every 7th or 8th video was very blurry. OK I could live with that.


Hard to figure why it would not pick up vehicles going down the road or people walking.
OK make it quick here. Detection range is about 50 feet. Unbelievable. I got 20 year old Moultries with better detection.
Audio just didn't work.

Back to Amazon.
This is the E5 not to be mistaken with the A5.

I don't know what it is about the GardePro triggering mechanism/software but it does not pick up people or vehicles well.

Possibly too big of a signature. Not sure exactly how they work but imagine there must be limits in each direction and perhaps people are at the upper end of the limit? Just spitballing.

Yeah the E5 seems to be their budget model. Same as any other brand. I've got high end Browning and Bushnell that are amazing, and I've got low end models from those brands that suck. Same with Moultrie.

Regardless of brand I look at entry level models as expendable cams for public ground where if they get stolen I'm not out much. I'm only looking to see if my scouting is accurate. I'm not using them for census data or critical info. For the critical stuff I use good gear.
