Product Description
Deters robbery and shoplifting without the high cost of a real surveillance camera. Features a built in motion detector. It will remain still until someone passes by, then the 'camera' will move back and forth and a red light will flash. For indoor or outdoor use. If used outdoors, place in a safe area sheltered from extreme weather, heat, or moisture. Operates on three "AA" batteries.

4 out of 5 stars Useful as a *complementary* security measure   July 12, 2006

This "camera" works as advertised. Although totally made of plastic, it looks realistic enough (the "lens" is black and reflects some ambient light, like the glass of most cameras out there).

When it detects moviment nearby, it moves in both directions (that is, it pans back and forth) a couple of times, as the red LED light blinks. It uses three "AA" batteries that can last for several months (assuming it is activated around 4 times a day). There's an ON/OFF switch outside. No wiring needed for installation (it has an actual white wire behind it, faking its insertion into the wall).

The only reason I gave it 4 stars is that it doesn't react to movement everytime. Most times it works, but sometimes it just doesn't (as if it had an automatic on/off timer). But this is not a big issue because even without moving and blinking, it is still there and do intimidate intruders and thieves sucessfully (well, I hope so). Additionally, one of the 3 units I bought just don't move or blink at all.

If you want a fake camera that really looks like an original surveillance camera, look for those models with the lens built-in inside a metal body, without movements, sounds or blinking LEDs.

I used to be in Security observation, serving convenience stores. I bought one just to try out and it works good! it is not infared so it will not detect movement in low light levels.it uses a electric photo eye, detects changes in light. will detect at least 20 feet away. I'm going to reorder. thanks !

Bought this because we have irresponsible dog walkers that left their mark on our property. This situation has really improved. Also,I didn't really buy it for this but we also have a medical facility across the way. I couldn't believe the improvement in their patient's care! I noticed the staff take less breaks and are more attentive to their patients! I can't thank you enough for this product!

I bought this as a joke at work. It's hilarious! It is a little loud. This one messed up after about an hour and started clicking when it rotated. For my use, that only made it better.


3 out of 5 stars Bargain but limited use   August 9, 2010

I tried to use these cameras outside and they are not suitable for that. You have to be very close to the sensor (5') before the camera starts moving and at that distance anyone familiar with surveillance cameras will probably spot these as fakes. The sensors quit working within a matter of months, but once again I had them outside.
