Reolink Go with Live View! Wireless! (Review)

[@alexgataric]

I manage several farms and have five of these cameras. I've found them to be very reliable and easy to use. They've survived two northern Illinois winters without issue. 1. Go to a T-mobile store and have the SIM card activated on the spot with the camera. One of the main complaints with these cameras is the initial cellular set up. 2. The solar panel only needs a few hours a day to charge so it doesn't need to have the perfect angle to catch light. The battery is quite large and can go without charging for a month. 3. The camera doesn't have the same response time and range as a dedicated hunting camera. It can be used for hunting but it is really a security camera. This doesn't bother me since I don't use it for hunting. Before buying REOlink I investigated using cellular hunting cameras and found them to cost twice as much with features I didn't need. 4. The camera and solar panel are surprisingly inconspicuous. I thought they'd be obvious but aren't. 5. Get the cloud subscription package and skip the SD card. The video gets sent straight to the cloud and it is easy to review and download.

For the Sim card plan, I got a tablet data plan from my phone company for an extra $10 a month for unlimited data which was great because I have the free seven day cloud storage. I recommend that you activate your free seven day cloud storage it makes it a lot easier to access the video footage and it gives you a thumbnail.

Liked your video and your demeanor, got talked into a 2 gig plan at T-Mobile as it seems the only choice now. I will be shopping for a cheaper way now, thanks.

[@JaseOutdoors]

Appreciate that! I'd venture to say that 2 gigs is waaay more than you'll need so you can probably find something cheaper. I use US Mobile and get 500mb for a lil over $8 a month. I don't even come close to using 500MB so just depends on how much you use it. Good luck!

[@jimmarplediy2024]

I bought one and plan to buy another so that the two cameras can watch each other in my pole barn. I am hopeful that by placing them to watch each other it will make it impossible for a thief to come from behind to steal one without being seen. And I do like the speaker feature because it works like an intercom. When a family member can't find something, I can tell them where to look using the camera which saves me a 3 mile trip to the barn. Thanks for your video. I had no clue how to get a sim card for this camera. Reolink should have been more helpful with that in their booklet.

[@JaseOutdoors]

HAH, that's kind of funny. Your family looks for things like mine does! Lol If it doesn't jump out and bite them , they can't find it. Good luck with it! I really enjoy mine

Great review. May look in to one of these for our house down south

Thanks brother! Reolink has one called Reolink PT which stands for pan tilt. You can log into your phone and move the camera around during a live view. That might be a bit better for monitoring your house

[@jameslindbloom2615]

Be aware that you might need a Sim Card Adapter to that the Sim Card fits snugly. I have a Google Fi Sim and if you insert it without an adapter it fits poorly and likely won't work. Nothing in Reolink about this in the setup I'm sorry to day. And yes, a thumbnail really needs to be implemented to make the app in line with today's technology. Excellent video.

You can use any sim card you'd like. It doesn't come with one. It doesn't have to be with the same carrier you're using already. I use US Mobile sim card.

Great review Jase! I work for our state's Dept of Natural Resources as a biologist and we are looking for a cellular camera to monitor certain nesting birds on the marsh. My question is how much detail can you see in the lower res video that is sent to your phone? Is there anyway you can download the high res video file via cell (even if it uses more of your data)? Thanks for any information you can provide.

[@JaseOutdoors]

Hi Kenneth! The low res version looks pretty good on your phone but to really get details is to have the high res version which can only be obtained by pulling the micro SD card. I too wish there was a high res download option because those files really aren't huge anyway. There are trail cams hitting the market now that do the same as this one and might have a high res download option, but they are twice the price. Reolink has another one called the Reolink Go PT and that stands for Pan Tilt that allows you to move the camera to look around right from your phone. That might be good in the marsh!

The biggest problem I see with this camera is that it will keep recording until the motion stops. I live in a windy area and have no open fields to hunt. The winds blows the trees and bushes and limbs around to where this camera would be recording all the time. I would like to see a firmware update to allow timer recordings that start and stop after a given amount of time such as 5 or 10 seconds up to minutes.

I may have an Owl moving about in a box for an hour at a time or more, will the video just keep recording or can it be set to time out? Much obliged. Steve.

I think the focus will be ok as I remember hanging the cam and it recorded my face. Although I'm half afraid to say it'll be good that close cause I really haven't tested that but I think it will. Yes, it'll record as long as they're is motion detected but I seem to only get up to a minute clips at the longest and then it'll start a new clip plus the live view option, you can watch as long as you want. Let me know if you try this and how it works. I feel like this wasn't much help, sorry!

[@vandalstookthehandle]

@@JaseOutdoors No, that'a useful mate, thanks. And yes, I spotted you put the camera up to your face and it seemed to be fine. The live view option is very useful if it means you can dip in whenever to see what nesting birds are up to and the 60 second record time suggests there may be a video cut off time...but do you mean by, start a new clip, it just keeps recording at 60 seconds? That may be a problem as to data transfer. An option to set record time would be great on this set up. Maybe there is some control on record time using the selected set recording times. Obviously this is designed as a security camera and not a wildlife cam, but it seems an easy edition to limit vid clips to a timed cut off. I seem to remember the Spypoint Link Evo cam use to do this as default. In fact it went the other way, it limited the clip to 60 seconds. It would be great to be able to control the record time, specifically for a site of continual movement, like breeding birds. Will let you know if I find out anything more. Thanks for responding Jase.

[@JaseOutdoors]

I just went through my playback folder and most of my clips are only 10-20 seconds but it's mostly of deer feeding in a food plot. It seems once the deer stops walking and the camera doesn't detect motion it stops recording until it starts walking again. I don't have many clips over 30 seconds but there's no setting to limit for how long it records.

[@jeffsoutdoorexperience7879]

How far away will it detect movement?

[@JaseOutdoors]

Sorry, somehow I missed your message! Sorry! It's good to about 15 yards. Not terribly far, but they have been performing great so far for me!

[@sarahfoster3212]

I mounted it in my car i couldn't find a decent option without having to have WiFi and ever since my window was busted out with this nobody has messed with my car

[@JaseOutdoors]

Interesting. Where did you mount it?

[@sarahfoster3212]

@@JaseOutdoors in my back window facing inside my car I removed the metal swivel thing from the mount itself and used an old phone mount put the two together and it works perfect.

[@sarahfoster3212]

It says "I hope you enjoy jail" when it goes off lmao

[@JaseOutdoors]

LOL!

[@danadurnfordkevinblanchdebunk]

@@sarahfoster3212 Does it detect movement of anything outside of the car (with the windows closed)?

Ciao, is it possible to share live images on KZbin?

[@JaseOutdoors]

I don't believe so

[@isaiasperez131]

Did u see when u walked to see your camera there was an animal on your right in the back

[@JaseOutdoors]

My kid was hiding back there lol

[@SlavKing95]

can i use this in -15 celsious?

[@JaseOutdoors]

Should be able to. I had it out in below freezing temps and it worked just fine. I'm sure there's a point that is too cold and it won't work, but not sure what that would be

[@MelissaWitmerForeverKittens]

does anyone else see the person in black by the tree?

[@JaseOutdoors]

🤣 that's my kid. I told him to get out of the shot and hold still

Can anyone tell me they’ve used this with Verizon wireless SIM card in North America?

[@JaseOutdoors]

I haven't tried a Verizon simm, so I'm not sure. Hope someone can answer this for u

[@melaniesmith8763]

I don't have this deer camera however I do have 5 reolink cameras and I use Verizon. Huge thanks for the awesome down to earth review of this camera. I'm now going to purchase one and it's to catch the poachers. Huge thanks. (REOLINK should pay you and give you free cameras to say the least. Good luck when hunting season is in.

[@JaseOutdoors]

Thank you! Appreciate the kind words! Good luck in catching those poachers!

[@leighconway7159]

Thanks bro, just about to order myself a couple, did it record silly things at all , like the wind blowing branches? Snow falling or rain? Cheers from Aus

[@JaseOutdoors]

During the big snow storm we got I thought it was detecting the snow but after looking much closer there were deer moving pretty far out that I could barely see cause it was snowing so hard. I was impressed how well it did not getting false video. There is a setting in the app that you can adjust the sensitivity so you can set it where you need it. Good luck!

[@leighconway7159]

Appreciate the reply, yep I'm sold, Cheers

Did anyone else see that person by the tree 🌲 👀

[@JaseOutdoors]

Lol that was my son. I told him to get outta the shot. Obviously he didn't. Hah

[@LJcervantes15]

Is there a camera like this but able to work with wi-fi?

[@JaseOutdoors]

Yea, only one I tried was Nooie cam. I'm sure there's a bunch others but I haven't tried em. Good luck!

[@Daniel-Weaver]

Which cellular company do you use? Is this camera T-mobile only?

[@JaseOutdoors]

You can choose which ever provider you wish, but T Mobile and AT&T seem to be the way to go. I use a sim card from US Mobile and haven't had any problems with it so far

[@carlod545]

@@JaseOutdoors Question. I have clicked on your link to amazon for the US Mobile card. It says $5.99. Is that all you pay? Meaning how much data doe it get you? How many months does it work for? Will you have to eventually pay for another SIM card when or if the SIM Card expires? Sorry for all the questions. Maybe the card cost $5.99 and then you have to pay an additional cost each month. If so how do you pay for each month or where do you go to pay for each month? I guess I am trying to figure out where you can manage the account to see how much data your using or have left as well as pay for the account each month. Things like managing our payment method your using assuming you can set up auto pay so you doing have to manage paying it every month. Thanks

[@JaseOutdoors]

You have to buy the card itself first. That's the price you see. Then you can pick a plan from there. I buy the 500mb per month plan and that's $5 a month but with all the fees it comes to a little over $8 a month. You only need that one sim card and can keep adding to your plan with US Mobile. It really doesn't use much data so I'm even looking for a cheaper plan with less data. Hope that helps

[@carlod545]

@@JaseOutdoors Ok so you pay $5.99 for the card, and once you get the card you pay another $5 plus the fees that comes out to like $8ish. Thanks for the info. Do you manage the card via an app from US Mobile? Or do you call and do everything over the phone? Also if you do everything via a phone call to manage the data plan, I would assume if you want to check your data usage it would also have to be done via a phone call? Sorry again for the questions. Just trying to get a grasp of how one manages the plan. Hope it allows for setting up auto pay to a credit card so you don't forget to call if you have to handle that over the phone, or even if you had to login to an APP to pay monthly. Autopay would be great. Also are you saying your looking for another brand prepaid SIM Card? If so that POP card that says free may be the way to go. Just not sure that there are any on amazon right now.

[@JaseOutdoors]

Yes, u control the plan via the app. It's really easy. U can turn on auto pay or pay by the month. I was just looking for a cheaper plan but the one I'm using is pretty good so I may just stick with it. Freedompop apparently has free plans but not a lot of data. Good luck
