Ive been testing the Go PT Plus, the battery life on solar in the UK lasts about 14 days max with no features turned on that would drain the battery faster, i have to visit the site with a phone/battery bank, takes about 4 hours to charge from 20%, if the detections good and the little owls are triggering i might consider getting this one, thanks for taking the time to review test and making the videos.
Hi Vin the Kern Ranger is very much the same camera as the Go PT Plus. You will have the same issues with the battery power on this too. At a push I can get around 2 and half weeks. That’s turning it off when we get a good blast of sun light to give it a little top up. I have found the cold weather massively effects the battery life too so that too doesn’t help
@@liammedwards thanks for the info, I did try plugging the solar panel into a power bank but it didn't like it, and using the power bank on its own, it turns it's self off, so we're nearly there with this tech, if they could sort out the power issues.
Great 3 part review Liam. Looks like a nice bit of kit. I think one of these watching over my DSLR camera trap when I have it out, would be a great way of keeping an eye on my equipment and any activity that's going on. Thanks for sharing. 👍

Thanks so much John
That is what I have been using my other reolink cameras for also yo monitor the camera. That way you also know if you got the shot
Hi, great video!
What is the minimum focus distance? Do you think it can be used for micro mammals?
Hi, apart from the camouflage are there any significant differences between the Keen Ranger and the Reolink go Plus ?
I’d say no, it’s an additional 75.00 for the 3.00 camo
Can you make it record remotely?
Hi Steven yes you can log in to the camera Via the Reolink app on your phone and press record remotely.
