 Surprised I can't find more than that. Slow deals this year so far.

I have 2 of them that I think I got last year, about the same deal. Both still working. I have 2 others, a different model stealth, and a wildgame. They both died this year after 2 yrs use.
They sure arent the best out there, but for the price, even if someone else decides they want one of mine I'm not out a couple hundred.     :twocents:

I have.  Same site had a deal last year for a 3 pack of the same cameras for $99.99.  I've been running all 3 for about a year now. 

My previous cameras ($25 bushnell bargains) went through a set of 4 AA batteries in about 3 weeks.  I loaded up these stealthcam QS-12's with 8 AA's about a year ago and all 3 of them are still running on original batteries and showing at least half battery life remaining.

I'm happy with image quality.  Trigger time is decent for animals....usually.  Sometimes I get blank photos and assume a coyote trotted past at a decent pace.  For monitoring a driveway it isn't always quick enough to catch the licence plate on a vehicle. Sometimes I get a smeared shot of the side of the car.

Overall I'm happy with them and will probably purchase a couple more through the link above.

Here's a couple photos from them (some of the blur is because i took a photo of the photo on a computer screen with my phone camera)

I got a 3 pack of them last year to replace some more expensive cams someone else decided they needed to steal. Night time photos seemed pretty crappy. I walked up to an elk wallow that had a very fresh wet line where an elk had just left the wallow and walked off, I called him/or another in immediately but didn’t have any pics, there was 2 bugling within 100 yards. No pics tho. They were cheap (3@ $100) and work ok, but I was disappointed I didn’t have pics when I knew there should be...

It's a cat.  Here's a blown up photo.  Cat ear is obvious at bottom right.  Coyote is walking towards camera and cat's back legs are dragging underneath on the left side.

This year's Browning Strike Force Explorer is on sale quite a few places for under $90.  Great camera for the price.

Cats more likely.  Otter would probably kick a coyotes but.
