As promised I video'd the un-boxing of my new Radix PS-1 No Glow cam tonight.
Video here:

How far out will this take pictures? As outlined, it has a claimed range of 80 feet on site and box. Will share field pictures as soon as it can soak some in the field (hanging it tomorrow or Thursday)

Thanks 80 feet doesn't sound very far Most range from 40 to 100 out in the market. For reference even low glo reconyx cams are a mere 40 foot flash range. That is the key to remember flash range is different then field of range or how far images will be "clear." I was actually shocked that it was 80 compared to nearly all my cams in the 100 foot range given the TINY size of this little thing.

Outside of one field I've never even had to wish for longer range.
Longer range means a bright flash required, which means less discrete.
I believe the Illuminator from Covert has a longer range, but the dang thing lights up the night as well. Great pictures but not a fan of the idea of a strobe light nailing the deer in the eyes.

In broad daylight, in places where the camera is peering out into an open field range isn't much of an issue really.

I wanted to let everyone know I've so far been very impressed with this thing. Granted the darker still shots did exist, however they did a firmware update which I just applied and cannot wait to see the difference that made.
I posted two videos recently (past few days) on Small Acre Hunting's facebook page which will illustrate the awesome video quality it produces. I'd post here but no link and only posted to facebook as of now.
I have a lo-glo one coming as well as I'm ordering one of their Gen-500 that will be out soon.
