A wireless hidden camera can be used to keep an eye on employees, a babysitter, or workmen in your home when you are away. Once only available to law enforcement and spy agencies, advances in technology have brought these devices into the realm of everyday products. Wireless hidden cameras are self-contained and easy to install - they are completely portable and require no external wiring. There are several factors to consider when choosing a wireless hidden camera.

All of our wireless hidden cameras operate on a 2.4GHz frequency for improved image quality and transmission distance. In addition, our wireless hidden cameras include a free receiver, something you won't find elsewhere. You will still need to purchase a monitor or DVR (Digital Video Recorder) in order to use these devices, but the free receiver is one less piece of hardware that you will have to purchase.

Another factor to consider when choosing a wireless hidden camera is whether to choose a color or black and white model. There are certain trade-offs between the two types. A color camera provides more detail in the image. For example you can tell the color of a person's clothing. However, black and white cameras have a better overall resolution and can record images with less available light.

Consider choosing a wireless hidden camera with X-Vision. X-Vision is a technology, available only on black and white models, that allows the camera to record an image in lighting as low as 003 LUX (this value represents almost total darkness). Standard LUX values, without X-Vision, are .05 LUX for black and white models and 1 LUX for color models. By way of comparison, a camera with a light sensitivity of 1 LUX would be able to record a useful image late in the evening, around dusk. A value of .1 LUX would be able to record an image in a lighted parking lot at night, and a value of .05 LUX would provide the ability for the camera to "see" in near darkness - actually better than the human eye.

Another feature to look for when choosing a wireless hidden camera is a rechargeable battery pack. This allows for completely portable operation and also allows the camera to be hidden in devices that normally do not connect to the power line. Look for at least a 12-hour time between charges.

Due to advances in technology, mainly in the area of miniaturization, a wireless hidden camera can be concealed in a large variety of objects. We have over 35 different models available, ranging from a fully functional cordless phone to an operational can opener for kitchen surveillance. We also have cameras hidden in a clock, a teddy bear (ideal for use as a "nanny-cam"), a heating/air conditioning thermostat, a smoke detector and a mantle clock. In fact, we have the largest selection of hidden cameras that you will find anywhere.
