What is the detection range for this camera?

A lot of factors are involved in the detection ability of any game cam. Tempature, humidity and size of game. Under normal conditions I would say about 60-70 feet. I know I own several covert mp6 units and they will pick up deer in the woods that you have to inspect the pic closely to see them. Some of these deer are 25 -30 yards away in thick cover. As far as cams go the covert is one of the best for the money. I am very pleased with the reliability andbattery life is phenomenal.

don't waste your money. I have had 3 from this company and they all broke. There customer service is horrible to make things even worse.

It depends on the distance. This device is nice but will only give you clear image in the range of up to 50 yards. Beyond that things will not be clear and recognizable.

I dont know the exact range but my lights will detect motion at least 20 feet away

Detection: Mine will detect movement at least 25' away. You can see in the photo an angled cutout on each side of the sensor; you would want to mount it so movement is within that unobstructed range.Light distribution: The bottom of the lens is clear, so light will be cast down as well as out 180 degrees.

I have two of these and out to about 10 yards it will take a good picture. If something is within 10 yards and sets it off you can see anything in the background out to about 20-25 yards. I hope this helps...........

No, be aware, it has a very short range. Within 10ft if in a building, if outside a little better if bot camera and receiver are within line of sight of each other. And be prepared if you want to put the camera on a battery, it will go thru them very very quickly, not even lasting more than 3-4 hrs.

I'm not sure, it depends on several factors. I think it will work at a longer distance if you are in front of the camera rather than behind. It should operate fine at between 6 and 10 feet.

I believe the remote is supposed to have a 75ft range under ideal conditions. In practice, ours (outside, with no walls in the way) seem to have an effective remote range of 40-50ft. The motion detection range, though, may even be better than the 25ft claimed range.

That is a bit of a tricky question...there is significant attenuation if the signal is going through walls etc...The specs claim 150 ft indoor or 450 ft outdoor wireless range without obstructions.Incidentally, I found that these cameras died due to moisture when placed outside, personally I would only use them in a controlled climate environment. Alternatively, opt for a higher quality camera. The other issue is that the link is not re-acquired if it drops. I would come back home to a black screen and have to power cycle the camera frequently...not good. The more expensive models will re-establish the link.

I would say pretty close to 90. If you look at the picture, it has a U-shape recess. This allows you to move the face (camera front) downward. If you are planning to mount this above a door, I believe this would work just fine. It has quite a range setting. Mounting above a door would be ideal. You will have very good quality that close up. I have mine mounted further away (20-30 ft) Visibility/quality is still good, but not like what you are trying to do. I think you will be very satisfied with this camera and your mounting location.

The manual implies up to 50 feet. I deliberately aimed my unit to try and cover a limited area, but it seems to detect people at about 25', cats at about 12' and moving cars at about 40'. I'm sure the range would be greater if I aimed the sensor up a bit more.

Based on my experience, if a system won't detect at 850, then it won't at 940. Cameras and cell phones must have night-vision capability or infrared sensors in order to detect light beyond 850nm. Expensive night googles should be able to see in the IR wavelength, but a search to make sure your devices are capable of the 940nm range is recommended. 940 is often more desirable because it gives off very little visible light and is therefore extremely hard to detect.

I have this camera in my driveway. If recording at full resolution I am able to clearly see the license plate numbers on a car at a distance of 35 feet or closer zooming in on the in image. Anything farther then 30-35 feet gets distorted and unreadable.

It's mounted 7'-10' high to be detected maximum distance up to 60'-70' (@75F or less). if just detects 10'-20' away that have to adjust sensitivity knob via clockwise to increase its sensing range.

The camera communicates wirelessly with the monitor. There is no wire connection, so the effective distance may be limited. I find about 75 feet to be the max. Highly functional camera because it is portable and can be moved from place to place. Usually good reception at night. Overall, we depend on this camera to watch our property.

I never tried to see how far the signal would actually reach, but one of the cameras is located on the back corner of my 48' long house under the eave, and the other is located on the front corner of my house on the same side pointed in another direction, also mounted under the eave of the roof. The monitor/lcd screen is located by a window in a computer room about 15' from the camera in the back, and about 25' from the camera in the front. The reception is indicated by a status bar ( one line -five lines, like a cell phone I guess ) on the screen for each camera. The closest camera in the back shows four bars, the one in the front shows three bars. The antennas on the cameras were moved ( they spin around ) until optimum reception was found.
