Well sell the Jager Pro ICE camera. It is $450 and the monthly cell fee is $25. You can pay for it through the app and it works great.
I have them on bait sites. When the pigs show up, I ride over and shoot them. Sure is effective.

Any camera priced in the range you request will have a short life span. The "mid grade" camera types are built this way. Most are made in China and suck to be honest.
Leaky seals, blurred images, false triggers, hiccups from signal service, battery life are worst than expected. I personally found this out by starting at that level of cameras many years ago and then finally being fed up of the same old sales mfg trickery went the top end route and never have had ANY issues.
Just remember, buying cheap merchandise to save money, is like stopping a clock to save time.
Good luck on your endeavours though.
I ran many Covert brands. They have crappy seals over 1 year of use and then your internals will be all condensated and if not coated to prevent this, they fail. Covert doesn't coat their boards.
No cameras out there do you want any internal moisture but the top dogs makers coat their boards to help aid in preventing a short circuit of the unit as a protective measure.
In this hobby, you get what you pay for, plain n simple.

Spend a little more to get more. Spartan GoCam runs about $450-480 depending on model. Costs $5/mo to add onto an existing Verizon plan. Comes with a 2-year warranty. Their customer service is good.

I must be lucky....... My Coverts have worked great. And, I like the app, too. I have had some issues as they experienced 'growing pains' with updates and changes. I guess that I am just accustomed to that and understand it due to my work experience?? None have been a show-stopper, though. I now have the 2016's. But, I have had their camera's since 2014. I have been able to upgrade through their trade-in programs and keep up with their technology in an affordable manner. And, I gotta say......they are fun! Oh, and I forgot....I paid less than $300 for my newest one. And, I have helped several friends do the same.
