SPYPOINT CA-01 Cellular Antenna Signal Booster for Extended Range

Shane: I bought this because I couldn't get a signal to my cell cam. Installed this antenna and got signal and pics where I couldn't before so it works.

Marcus: I really love this camera, I use it for preseason scouting and to watch my traps on my trap line even with auto sync any time there is motion the battery lasts a long time and the picture is great. I will be purchasing more.

Ryan: Ok, in my situation my cell phone is very hitt and miss with often having 1 bar or none where the camera is installed. I tried the camera with no antenna and as expected absolutely no coverage. I then the factory antenna and I had two bars but on the app it was saying 25 percent most of the time and one day out of the 7 days I tried it there was 50 percent coverage. Lastly this antenna was installed and I still only had 2 bars on the camera but the app reported 50 percent coverage for 6 days with 1 day being at 25 percent. The antenna was installed the full length of the cord. It seems to do its job and I would recommend it...i did use tools to make the fittings just a tad tighter then hand tight and that seemed to have made a real difference.

Hailey: Camera with paid subscription($15/month) stops working even with fresh batteries and a new card AND 100% connection. Customer service was kind enough to refund us $0.09 cents for 5 months of non transmission of photos/videos. When it works it's great when it doesn't like it hasn't for the last 5 months is a piece of crap. We can only suspect they want us to upgrade the plan which we won't be doing. Would not recommend.

lang: Like: Decent picture and video quality. Cellular signal ranges from 40% on Cloudy days to 90 % on sunny days. If there is a lot of animal action plan decreased battery life which is normal. App overall is excellent, easy to load, use and with exception of occasional glitch at "company HQ", working well. Remote firmeware updates are fantastic. Tech Support has varied, but overall has solved issues.

NEEDS IMPROVEMENT: 32 GB card o only reads 1 GB capacity and .9% full. tried two new cards, same result, Firm Ware is up to date.
Need Lithium rechargeable battery LIT-22
Needs INTEGRATED Solar panel option similar to Link-Micro-S-LTE

Jim k: This model was rushed on the market before all the bugs were worked out. One common problem is the battery tray does not make good contact on some and may not power up. I had one out of 3 with that problem but spypoint sent me a new tray free of charge. Some of the readings are not correct but spypoint is working on the issues and correcting them with format updates. A camera like this will go through batteries quicker so if you expect to keep it on video mode you may want to hook it up to a 12 volt batterry and use a game feeder trickle solar panel. I made my own system and had 3 cameras out all summer and fall on video and kept my battery at 100%. Do a little homework and you will figure things out. You will not get this quality of camera at this price. Battery life can be saved by setting your communications to 2 times per day and just because it takes videos does not mean you have to keep it on video all the time. Do not be afraid to change your settings to control picture plan or battery life. Just remember that your settings will not update until your next communication. I am retired and these cameras are a hobby of mine. I have at least 24 out all summer,...

KeLLY FlemingKeLLY Fleming: God. I thought the flex would be different. I was on customer support w spypoint for 8 hrs dealing w a cell link issue and they suggested I upgrade to flex to avoid these hassles. I should've known better.

I got the flex same day. I preface this by stating, I'm no novice. I own 6 spypoints and have troubleshooted them all at some pt. I know u need new batteries, SD card formatting/new firmware, etc to make them work done it 100x.
But, bc usually the issues that arise are with the SD CARD (meaning when they stop working in the field monthly) it's bc they need firmware updates or formatting. Since flex has the format button on thr camera, allegedly this issue is circumvented. Or so they said.

I got the camera, It took way longer to start transmitting pics than expected but it did. I got it into the field and was excited! I had a Stealthcam (reactor) on the same gametrail across from my flex. Thankfully I did, otherwise I wouldn't have known all the animals I missed. The 1st night 3 bucks came through, plus other animals and it sent NONE. I was furious. So I had to go out to the field, start troubleshooting. It didn't work so I took it home. Ad...
