Picture Quality: Testing in Progress

Photo resolution: 20 interpolated mpxl

We are placing cameras in the field. We will post pictures and videos as they become available.

Battery Life: 60/100

Picture & Video Resting Power (on): 1.76 mW

Picture Daytime/Nighttime Power Consumption: 2.12 Ws | 4.57 Ws

Video Daytime/Nighttime Power Consumption: 34.26 Ws | 290.55 Ws

Battery life is very efficient in picture mode but extremely inefficient in video mode.

Picture Mode

If this camera were to take 35-day and 35-night pictures every 24 hours, the Wildgame Innovations Silent 20 Crush Lightsout would last 9.3 months in the field on a set of 8 AA Lithium Batteries. We consider this to be good battery life.

Video Mode

If this camera were to take 15-day and 15-night videos (30-second videos / this is the only length of video Wildgame allows) every 24 hours, it would last 0.7 months in the field on a set of lithium batteries. This is very poor.
