    Can anyone recommend, preferably older model trial cams with a time lapse mode? I have a couple old cuddleback f2’s that’ll do this. I’m looking to pick up a few used/cheap cheap on eBay. There’s not much available for the older cuddleback...

    I can’t find a list of models with this feature. Thanks!

    Cheap enough I don’t get real mad if one walks off. $20-50ish is what I have in most of my collection.

    I like my Stealth cams, but they are a bit more than that for the models I have mostly used. I can usually find the G42NG on Amazon for $90 to $110 each. I have not used the time lapse mode on them, but they do have it.

    If you've got a Tractor Supply nearby you might want to stop in and see what they've got on the clearance rack. Picked up a 4 pack of Simmons cheapies for $60 a couple weeks ago at our local TS. Actually take decent pics, too!

    Thats the price I like. Do these have time lapse mode?

    In Perry county I believe they call those a 'poachers pack'...

    In Crawford county $60 would buy enough diesel to set the woods on fire and shoot anything that comes out the other side...

    Crawford is not noted for our brilliant thinking, or even thinking for that matter.

    Our county motto is: Crawford county, making Perry county look good since 1816...

    Gotcha. I misread possible implication that my use of trail cameras dumped me in a bucket with poachers.

    I agree this model has been reliable for me as well. Great on battery life and continues to take great videos and pictures even when they age.
