Security Cameras
Hello, Does anyone have suggestions on which ones work best with HughesNet gen 5? As I am really wanting some but not sure about them.
What's your point?
Pick wrote:We have a cabin in the mountains in NE Georgia located in the Chattahoochie NF and 9 game cameras on the property. I have pictures of bears, cougars, bobcats, coyotes, coydogs, turkeys, deer, feral cats and more.
When triggered, the cameras take 3 pictures.. Triggered includes when the wind blows trees and bushes move; as a result, the camera takes 3 pictures. When it rains real hard; the camera takes 3 pictures. Due to wind moving; a camera took over 4000 pictures in 3 days. To a cloud that is a lot of traffic.
Game cameras take pictures and/or videos of everything that moves; even trees moving in the wind, birds flying, heavy rain etc. I delete a few thousand pictures every week. Depending on the settings; each picture is usually 3.5 meg.
Camera1 1245 pictures
Camera2 3925 pictures
Camera3 1248 pictures
Camera4 1032 pictures
Camera5 1102 pictures.
Not something, I want to upload.
We call this bear the peeping bear as he always walks by the bedroom window..
The OP was looking for advice and a recommendation of what brands work on HughesNet.
What you've provided is an interesting comment on the volume of information your system generates in your particular situation, but still doesn't address either part of the original question.
It's very useful information, Mark, anyone using a camera with HughesNet needs to be aware of data consumption.
