 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.
