Q. Can I switch video modes?
Yes you can - you can switch between HD (1280x720) and VGA (640x480) resolution simply by moving the video selector switch.
Q. Why would I want only VGA quality when I can get HD quality?
VGA quality is still a very good quality video, and takes up about half the memory of HD, so if you want to fit more video on your memory card, you can use VGA quality.
Q. Can this camera take photos too?
Yes you can switch between Video or Photo mode. In photo mode, the camera will take 3 photos at 1600x1200 resolution whenever motion is detected.
Q. How can the battery last so long?
The camera uses a form of motion-activation that actually detects "body heat", which is a much more accurate mode of detection, and allows the battery to last much longer.
Q. So what exactly is the battery life?
The battery can last for approximately 5-6 days of standby life, with a total continuous recording time of 4-5 hours.
Q. Why is this camera more expensive than many other hidden cameras?
This camera is a professional grade device that is made of very high quality components that make it much higher quality than standard consumer-grade hidden cameras.
Q. Does this device support automatic overwrite?
Yes it does (automatic overwrite automatically overwrites the oldest files when the memory card is full to make room for new files). This option can be turned on or off on the device.
Q. How do I charge the battery?
The battery can be charged either by plugging the camera directly to your computer's USB port, or by using the included standard wall charger.
Q. How many faceplates are included?
There are two faceplates included - one is standard white, and the other is beige.
Q. How can I mount the camera to my wall?
Included in the box are mounting 3M tape so you can stick it wherever you need it. You can also use velcro if you want to use that instead.
Q. What does the format button do?
The format button is a good way to clear off any data on a Micro SD card, and make sure the card is in the proper format to record videos.
Q. Can I actually plug anything into the outlets?
No you can't - this device is a hidden camera only.
