Hide it yourself
These black box cameras can be used as a normal video camera or security camera. It has a pinhole lens with a wide field of view. Only the pinhole lens needs to be exposed. The camera could be further concealed by placing it behind other items with a just a small hole for the lens to see through.

Built-in DVR Video Recorder
The video is recorded internally to a removable Micro SD memory card (sold separately). Works with up to 128GB Micro SD cards. Video storage is approximately 2.5GB per hour of video recorded.

Never run out of recording space
When full this model can overwrite or "re-cycle". In this mode when the SD card is full the oldest video is deleted to make room for the newest recordings so you will always have the latest video available for review.

FULL-TIME POWER and/or BATTERY POWER
Includes a 5 VDC Wall Power cord that can provide full-time power and/or charge the battery. The built-in battery can be used to power the camera or as a backup battery. When the power cord is used for main camera power the battery will recharge until full and it will function as a backup battery if the main power goes out.

MOTION DETECTION RECORDING MODE
Both the Lite and Pro Series have video-based motion-activated recording mode. This type of motion detection saves some battery life when it isn't actively recording, but the battery still drains fairly quickly because the camera is always on. The camera needs to stay on to detect motion by "watching" to see if anything is moving in the video. The video recording is triggered instantly when any motion is detected in the video.

Wireless Remote Control Included
Control recording modes, start/stop recording manually, plus access on-screen menus and other functions

Digital Video Playback
The video files are recorded as AVI (H.264) so they can be viewed on almost any PC, Mac, or other devices using popular free software like Windows Media Player or Kmplayer and they can be easily edited by most video editors. Simply remove the Micro SD Card you are using to transfer the files.
