Smartwares Dummy Camera with PIR Motion Sensor and Flashing LED Light, Battery Powered, Wall Mounted, Indoor & Outdoor Use

It looks authentic, has a motion detector and could easily fool anybody! I can’t comment on battery life as yet. However, very pleased with it.

Love the look .Is not weather proof .Ours under porch ,new set of batteries ladt 3 hours so with that respect NOT good value

Poor battery life, I used brand new top quality heavy duty Eneloop pro batteries that I normally use in my Fuji Camera and they only lasted 6 weeks not the 12 months they claim on ordinary batteries.As its not a heavy traffic area, its very disappointing. I dont want to be changing batteries in all weathers every 6 weeks up a ladder, I removed the tiny screws that hold the battery cover on installation , and used bluetac ,it would be impossible to fiddle about with tiny screws underneath the unit on a ladder, changing the batteries is hard enough, that's very poor design , its not worth risking a ladder accident more than necessary.It looks convincing to the average person but a professional thief might not be taken in. I wouldn't recommend it as a "working" dummy, as a non working dummy, maybe, its up to you. put it up and forget it, and hope any burglar is stupid enough to be fooled.

Looks good sounds not realistic however hope its a deterrent not had long enough to know battery life

Security great moves about

These are brilliant would recommend them

Put up camera Sunday and Tuesday it had stopped working !!! Had to change Batteries already .. As read in reviews that it can be motivated 3 times a day and battery last a year it's not looking good

LED stopped working after 9 months changed batteries several times still not working

Cette caméra ressemble parfaitement à une caméra réelle, la qualité est bonne, elle peut être dissuasive, mais je n’ai pas assez de recul pour juger de sa durée dans le temps.

No parece falsa

Molto soddisfatto

I had purchased this dummy camera as a project case so my review of it is based on a tear down rather than just it's features. I was pleasantly surprised by the attention to detail of the casing. The top removable, and adjustable shield is made of metal and the plastic housing has very little flex, which was one thing I was looking for. As it came, after installing three AA batteries and turning on via a switch in the mounting arm, the camera rotates about 30 degrees back and forth a couple of times and illuminating a small red LED before resetting when it detects motion. When dismantled I was surprised to find little details like a well lubricated gears, wire channel to keep the wire tidy, well secured internals, and even a gasket/o-ring for the removable front bezel (four tabs). The motor seems good and is well mounted, which is belt driven (with a rubber style band) then through gears to the final drive. The motion takes about 170 degree turn, and very little effort, of the final drive to go from side to side with the far right/left sweep locking the motion before going back requiring the drive to be turned a little further to continue. Internal dimensions are roomy 65mm between screw posts 110mm front to back and 4mm tall center line especially with the motor removed. The final gear is 38mm from the rear and about 10mm tall. Under the metallic sticker, which I guess keeps it water tight, at the bottom there is a vent in the housing and the wire passes through the rear of the housing secured with what looks like silicone. Tightening of the camera to the mounting is very secure with a screw to keep it together to the drive. When positioned and tightened it feels surprisingly solid.If I had any critique I might say that it might move a little fast for a security camera and that the battery compartment can be a bit tricky requiring four small screws at the corners to be removed and the cover gently pulled away.

Diese Kamera erfüllt ihren Zweck einen Amateur abschrecken, klar ein Profi erkennt den Unterschied aber für einen Laien sieht die Kamera sehr echt aus. Der Bewegungssensor reagiert sehr gut die Montage ist sehr einfach ebenfalls ist die lange Betriebsdauer mit einem Batteriesatz hervorzuhen.
