Wall Socket Outlet Hidden/Spy Camera

Wednesday, September 30th, 2009

DVC-LTCM1906 big
















A new camera is in stock. We are adding more cameras to our arsenal and this is the latest hidden/spy security camera. This one is really neat! It’s sole purpose to spy on people. It has a pinhole type of lens. Typically you will have a viewing distance of 30 feet and a very wide angle of view. This is designed to look just like a power wall outlet. Upon testing this probably one of the best and most covert cameras we have ever seen. Some of the main features this camera has is 420 TV lines. It has a 3.5mm lens, and it is a pinhole type of lens. The camera will work best indoors around good lighting. We think that this will be best suited in residential homes. You could use this to watch your babysitter, kids, and guest. This could work in a small business setting, but we recommend in an area that is considered to be high risk. If all your outlets do not look like this then you will want to buy a few more so that you can pull off the look. Other than that this is one creative way to get undisclosed information about whom is stealing from you. You can look through our hidden security cameras to browse at other models.

Public Security Cameras ~ Burger King At Tinceltown Using Cmount Cameras Indoors

Monday, September 28th, 2009

2




















Fast food restaurants are strong buyers of surveillance equipment. We were on lunch break today and we could not but help notice this huge cmount camera watching the cash register area. This camera had to be at least a foot long. We assumed that it was for watching the cash registers during lunch rush. You’ll be surprised that people sneak money out of the register in between sales. Even if it is less than five dollars at a time it still can be devastating to the owners profit margin, especially if they have more than 10 chains. That could be a loss of like 200 dollars or more a day. Those numbers are just not something you want to see when you are the one holding the bag. But we have never seen so much consistency in a customer base than the fast food industry. Usually you just see a dome camera or a tiny bullet camera inside at most McDonald’s, Burger King’s, Wendy’s, and Arby’s. No low-grade security cameras here. This Burger King even may have had a POS (point-of-sale) system hooked up to this CCTV system. Most places will use a nice looking bullet camera, so it still is not too obvious. Cmount cameras are just ugly looking but, they have the best resolution and overall picture out of all camera types. A word of warning to all potential crooks, if you see cmount cameras, RUN! Crooks be aware never even think of robbing one of these places, because they are loaded with surveillance equipment.

Public Security Cameras ~ At The Avenues Mall

Saturday, September 26th, 2009

1




















Time to time we are always living our lives and we tend to forget the little things that makes life work. Here is an example, while leaving the mall, one of our consultants noticed the amount and type of security the Avenues Mall, here in Jacksonville, Florida, had on just one corner of the store! There was a cmount camera in a housing along side a ptz security camera. Just when most people think no one is watching, someone is. In the case of this ever growing industry, soon there will be cameras on every corner. If they are mounted correctly, they never even let you know they are there. It is like being in a third person’s world. Security cameras gives you God’s eyes to the world. It’s a very funny thing to watch people when they are “really being themselves”! You get ezact human behavior with no control. We have many types of customers that buy from us. But we do not encourage, spying on people unless there is a reason for it. But next time you are at the mall, look over your shoulder!

What are infrared illuminators?

Friday, September 25th, 2009

DVC-LTIR50Big





 








These are the most unheard of pieces of CCTV equipment on the market. There are many different versions of these illuminators, however, they are often mistaken as infrared cameras. They are not! They have high powered lights that help infrared or color cameras see in the dark at long ranges. Because the infrared lights are in large number and powerful, you want to excersie some caution in how you use them. Typically never use these indoors. They are for outside use,  unless used in a very large warehouse setting. The one we feature here have a distance of 330 feet! Wow now that is primo stuff. We carry models that are more practical instead of those huge boxes with over 100 led lights.

We prefer to use equipment that is more user-friendly. Some of the other things you must understand is that infrared is in black and white video feeds only. So color is no option. The great thing about our line is that our line of illuminators are very affordable. The one above goes for about sixty dollars and gets you about 350 infrared seing distance. If you need more information about how to use them, visit our infrared illuminators, or call our 800 line and talk to a security consultant today.

What are the differences between a dome camera and a ptz camera?

Thursday, September 24th, 2009

domevsptzcameras














What are the differences between these two security cameras? They both look like domes right? Both security cameras are both great in design, and appeal. However, they have  major differences. Those differences start at the insides of the cameras. PTZ security cameras have a super brain inside their smoked color domes. The brain of a ptz camera, has artificial intelligence. Most ptz security cameras have to be manually zoomed in and out. They also pan both left and right. Seems that compared to regular dome security cameras they are just far more advanced. Dome cameras have the ability to have a fixed lens, or a varifocal lens built into the base of the dome.  Dome cameras can never be manually controlled. They can never be zoomed in and out or panned side to side.  There are many different sizes and styles of ptz cameras. Ptz security cameras can be made into “recess mounted” domes. They are so small that they look like dome cameras. With their smokey domes, it would be hard to know if the dome was looking at you, or that it is zooming in and out. Recess mounted ptz cameras could fit into residential communities and never be reported because they are so small. Just know that when trying to compare these two cameras it is not even a contest. Dome cameras are just not in the same class as ptz cameras. When you look at the price tag between the two, you can understand why they are in separate classes. When it comes to surveillance applications it really does not matter which camera is more powerful than others. It is about what it can do in an overall security setup. For example, if you have an indoor CCTV setup, then having ptz security cameras will not do you much good, in that they are too powerful. Instead a collection of fixed dome cameras with 3.5mm lens will do better. PTZ cameras are meant for an entirely different purpose. So you can see why we can say, the fight between which camera is the best becomes a no contest. In the end neither camera can out do each other. Choosing the right camera depends on what you need to accomplish in your security needs. But for the record PTZ cameras have the best technology, and are far more superior than dome cameras. However, dome cameras are more versatile and are cheaper than ptz cameras. So we declare this bout a “no contest”!
