I have 7 trail cameras from Browning that have worked flawlessly since I have had them out. This past year, the woodpeckers hammered my PIR lenses in 6 of the 7.
I contacted Browning and was told that the lenses were on backorder. Contacted them again around the end of August and was told again that 2 of the PIR lenses for 2 different model cameras they were still waiting on to come in. 4 of the camera models I have (all the same model) I was told they would not be getting any replacement PIR lenses due to the age of the cameras.
These cameras were in perfect working condition when the wood peckers did there thing on the PIR lense.
If this is the case, I am done with Browning. They list 25 different PIR lenses on their website with only 14 of them in stock, maybe!
Other camera mfgs may be the same but when you have a couple hundred bucks tied up in cameras and all of a sudden they are not going to sell you parts or fix them, in my book, not good.
Now, suggestions on what brand to go with that will not break the bank due to the possibility of woodpeckers hammering them again!
Rant over.
