Don't have the funds, but ordered three. Just a ridiculous deal.

Coupon code "freeship27" seemed to work too. Got three for $98 no shipping charge  ;D.

The main thing I found when researching it was to make sure you use a 16GB or less SDHC Card, and it has to be a Class 2 for some reason. There is a symbol on most cards that is a number inside a letter "C". Class 2 are the slower cheaper ones. I really like the time lapse over the sensor for patterning critters.

Thanks for this link JL!!

Has anybody ever used one of these before?  How many days can it cover before running out of space?   Certainly can't beat the price, but if it can't last 2 weeks then I'm not sure it would be a good fit for me.

It does not work as a triggered camera, time lapse only. The amount of pictures depends on picture size and number/frequncy of pics taken. It will take up to a 16GB (CLASS 2) card, so multiple the number below by size of card and how many pics you want per day (ie, two hours at dawn and then two at dusk and a pic every minute is 4hours x 60 pics=240 per day)

Resolution Picture count stored with 2GB SD Card
LOW        640 x 480 ---10,994
MEDIUM    1280 x 720 ---3,206
HIGH        1920 x 1080  ---1,749
FINE         3264 x 2448 ---961
VIDEO        640 x 480   ---274**
*Estimates. Actual capacity will vary based on image properties
