I've had two of these, they have both failed. First one failed after trying it in my house for 20 seconds, the second one failed after using it fishing and discharging the battery. After recharging it, it would not turn off and got really hot! I liked the underwater video I got from the second camera, but I don't think they are reliable enough especially for the $200 price tag.
If I understood correctly, THIS DEVICE can also be used as a sonar camera. For example, to float on the surface and see if there are fish under the surface of the water. Am I right.
Great detailed video If you use the WiFi can you bring it to the surface like a marker float and then view the footage on your phone without bringing it back to the bank or is just live view. Not sure whether to buy this or the spydro Thanks
I haven't used it that much, the water clarity out of the Golden Gate leaves much to be desired. In clearer water it would perform better. Overall I'm not sure I would replace it should it be lost or broken.
@@WavesTrails i just got it delivered. Had waterwolf, omni, spydro, lost most. Not much choice now, hated spydro, no more wolf, lookks like this one is decent. Salmon trolling in LM
Its a necessary evil. You want to capture everything within feet of the camera, which requires a wide FOV. Tying the leader to the camera avoids this, I often leave the leader on the canera since I mainly use it for salmon trolling. Thanks for watching!
@@WavesTrails will do. The whole design is so much better. No buttons or anything that opens or plugs in. Totally contained and solid. Charges with magnets. Very impressed with the design and build quality.
The only frequencies that work underwater are far too low bandwidth to wirelessly stream video over. The range in air is measured in hundreds of meters for wifi frequencies but in water its in inches.
I keep calling them and they keep hanging the phone knowing is me because I told them my gofish cam. Over heat . They say they sent replacement but never got it so I could sent the old one back but is all bullshit. Buy on ur own risk😡
