They'll have a hard time chewing up the camera that way.
I've found that trigger time is VERY important. Less than 1/2 second is best, and also if the camera is "asleep", how long it takes to "wake op" and take a picture is important too.
I have a Cuddieback Capture that the nighttime picture taking portion of it died. I called them and they said since it's out of warranty, send it back with $100 and they'll fix it.
Like other companies, they had their good years and bad years. My next one will be a Reconyx.
I had a Stealth Cam go bad under warranty. Sent it back, the replacement didn't work, sent that one back, the next one didn't work either. They sent me a newer model and I have never put it out. The thing that aggravated me was that every time I sent it back, I was put at the end of the list, so every camera took over a month to get back.
