RCMAN, sounds like you got better battery life than me, at least on my first charge. Overall I'm happy with the camera. The data-use is not that much at all, especially where I have it, so it works good for me. Another feature of it I just discovered is you can set a geo-fence to turn it off and on. What that does is basically when my cell phone gets within a certain distance of the camera, then the camera won't detect motion or send an alert. I haven't turned it on yet, but I will. What that will do is when I'm at the motorhome it won't be sending alerts with photos of me, and I won't have to turn it off and on in the app as it's automatic. This feature will also be handy when using it inside the motorhome while camping as it will turn off and on automatically as you come and go from the motorhome. If you have one inside your house this would be nice so it's only recording when you aren't home.
