All trail cameras I have known take a few seconds to start up. Generally, heat signature triggered cameras do not work well in the summer when the surrounding temperature is higher or close to that of the target and fiendly creature. Passive InfraRed (PIR) sensors do not work well on hot summer days. It is good if there is a secondary trigger option like a pressure plate and wires connected to a "normally open" (NO) electrical relay trigger input (some have it)

Thanks for doing these camera reviews Tim, I operate a couple blocks as an absentee owner and am in the market for a phone service security option. Good to know the capabilities for the different options. Cheers

Nice work Tim, this was a great review of the Keen Ranger PT! Now let's see if it can handle my chickens ;) #farmlife

Let’s make it cammo.. then strap a solar panel beside it. 😂
