BrinnoBCC2000 - Construction & Outdoor Security Time Lapse Camera Trio Bundle Pack - Up to 1-Year Battery Life - 1080P - Includes: TLC2000 Camera, Industrial Clamp, & Weather-Resistant Case

****bought this in 2020. I believe it’s critical to do the firmware update when you receive it or it may not work right. I recall that it took a few attempts to get the update to work so follow instructions carefully. Following that, I bought a 128gig mini SD and mounted the cam inside the enclosure up in a tree for two constriction projects. The first build lasted almost a year. Every two weeks or so I’d climb a ladder and pull out the SD card, get the footage, and replace the batteries. I think the batteries and SD would have gone quite a bit longer but I didn’t want to lose any days. Today I finished the footage on the second build. Both times the cam worked flawlessly. Crisp time lapse footage!

We purchased this product to provide a time lapse of the construction project. We tested it and everything seemed great. The user interface is crazy obtuse, but we learned it and set it up on a pole to shoot photos every five minutes for the life of the project. When we took the camera down to replace the batteries and tried to pull the images off, only the first set of images was readable. The rest were corrupt files on the SD card. We contacted support and they were of no help in retrieving our images or insuring that it wouldn't happen going forward. So we paid $600 for some low quality photos of the very beginning of our construction project and that's it. For a camera that has one job, be a set it and forget it camera for months, THIS IS AN EPIC FAIL. DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT FOR ANY REASON. What a complete and total waste of money. Setting money on fire is a better use of your money than buying this.

i wanted to post this because I’ve noticed some people having issues. I bought this camera for personal use. I’m not real tech savvy but was able to figure it out. I do photography on the side as a hobby and wanted to capture seasonal changes on my property. I wanted to find something I could leave for long periods of time but couldn’t find anything that could do that. So far I have been pleased with the battery life. I did have one hiccup, I had filmed some stuff around the house to test the camera out and had some issues with corrupt files. I wasn’t sure what that meant so I called my son who works on computers. He told me to contact the manufacturer, which I did, and they were able to walk me through an update for the software. The camera has worked out well for me so far and I will continue to use it.

In many ways I really like this product - but it has its problems.This is really a combo package of the ATH2000 housing and the TLC2000 camera.Good/Pros of TLC2000 camera:- good camera quality – great HD picture quality.- excellent low power use when in standby / timer modeBad/Cons of TLC2000 camera:- my timer setting was to record daytime on weekdays, but found morning video at end of previous day – it’s all there but not in the right video file - crazy- wish it was 4k- wish it would auto-upload via Ethernet- when power is off camera forgets all its settingsGood/Pros of ATH2000 housing:- very good configurable interior space – quite flexible- provision for power cable through bottom of case- room for moisture absorbing packetsBad/Cons ATH2000 housing:- housing lens window must be layered or something as it has water residue inside it now – camera pictures are still usable but they’re a bit compromised – can’t be cleaned – window glued in and not easily replaceable- battery holder for 16 batteries is a piece of junk (although it has clever electronics) – started coming apart fairly quickly. Replacing batteries is a time-consuming unpleasant chore. However, I found on Amazon an “always-on” USB charge pack (Voltaic Systems V50) that fits inside the case with a right-angle cable and that doesn’t shut down when the camera is on stand-by between timer events; this has made life far, far easier and more pleasant. I can charge the pack while still connected to the camera so the camera doesn’t forget its settings.Soon I will be switching to a POE high res camera with auto-upload to my file server, but this camera was quickly and easily deployed to get started, takes good pictures, and the 3rd party battery pack gets me about 2 weeks of 5 day daytime video.

We purchased for a multi-million dollar plant update. This camera has long-term capabilities with the 16 AA battery bank. I have tested for several weeks and the video is adequate. The camera creates the AVI files no larger than 500Mb and you can set the lapse intervals. Not the high quality video as our GoPro but better for the long-term shots.
