We use a digital camera's SD slot instead of a laptop in the field if that is helpful to anyone

Just curious if you've had issues with any of your 190 cameras being stolen while deployed? I use similar Browning cameras per your video but I also use cable locks to secure them in the field. But even locks are no guarantee b/c if a bad guy sees it, he'll come back with bolt cutters and steal it anyway!

Screw taking a laptop out 😂 that's longgg if there's a screen there for that purpose 👀

Instead of wasting tones of duct tape I recommend using cable ties....

Not gonna lie. My unit is way less advanced then yours, but I’m still gonna steal a lot of your wonderful tips. I was kinda hard for me to follow what you were saying the first few minutes of the video. Music seemed to compete with your narrative. But it eventuality evened out.

Duck tape?!? 😂 Wtf ? Just get a cable or something.... Also if you tie the strap to itself it wont go anywhere 😂🤔 just a waste of tape and obvious as fuck to people wanting to steal it 😂
