Air Freshener WiFi Audio Bug

After the growing demand for our Air Freshener Voice-Activated Recorder, the team at Spy Equipment UK wanted to create a similar listening device, but this time with WiFi connectivity, to allow for on-the-go streaming and monitoring. This sophisticated recording device can be easily deployed in any home or office environment, in plain view, without raising suspicion.

As we continue to expand our range of WiFi audio bugs, we knew it should include one of our popular air freshener spy products. Not only is this device discreet, it is also very simple to use and deploy, so is perfect for anyone looking for a reliable surveillance solution, regardless of how experienced you are. Get in touch with our surveillance experts today to find out more about this powerful wifi audio listening device.

What To Expect From The Air Freshener WiFi Audio Bug

Simple To Use & Deploy

Until very recently, those looking for audio surveillance would have to choose between the need for ‘live’ listening or the ability to record footage. Now we are building a range of products that incorporate both features. This means that through an app on your Smartphone you can choose to listen remotely to what is happening, whilst also automatically recording the live footage.

To switch on the air freshener, remove the rear part of the air freshener and press the switch, which will enable the listen and record system. The rear plastic enclosure panel can then be clipped back on and the WiFi audio bug will be ready to deploy. The microphone is hidden by the green gauze that sits behind the front grille, to ensure it is in the optimal position to pick up noises from the environment in which it is placed.

Control From Your iPhone Or Android Device

Many other listening and recording devices will use mobile (cell) networks and require a SIM card to achieve remote listening/monitoring, which typically results in ongoing costs to ensure that it stays active and maintains a reliable connection.

The Air Freshener WiFi Bug with integrated voice recorder, on the other hand, uses locally available WiFi (2.4GHz) connection for its ‘live stream’ remote control and monitoring. It should be noted, most modern WiFi routers have 2.4GHz as an option and both can be set to run concurrently.

Using an existing WiFi connection has many advantages, namely its global connection capabilities and no additional running costs. Moreover, the system can be easily controlled using a smartphone app, which is free to download, meaning the device can be managed whilst on-the-go. This app can be found within the Android Play Store and Apple App Store. So, providing you and the WiFi audio bug have access to a reliable wireless internet connection, you’ll be able to control and capture important audio recordings from almost anywhere!

Sound Activated Recording & Alerts

This WiFi audio listening device can be set up in different ways, either to record constantly or in response to environment noise (voice activation) for periods of 1, 5, 10 or 30 minutes per activation. This ensures that when sound is detected within approximately 8 metres above a certain level, recording will activate and continue for the pre-programmed time period.

Additionally, when noise is detected, an alert notification will be sent to the app on your phone, thereby providing the opportunity to listen in real-time. The alerts can be switched off in the app, should you wish to. You will also have the option to download the recordings catalogue remotely to your phone, using wireless connection. The aforementioned app is also capable of:

• Control activation sensitivity and format
• Switch notifications on and off
• Delete recordings from the listening device’s memory
• A cloud storage facility is also available as a cost option

Superb Audio & Battery Life

At Spy Equipment UK, sound quality is always a prime consideration when designing a product. Despite our Air Freshener WiFi Bug having several more advanced features, the device really does not compromise on quality. This listening device produces very high quality, crisp audio footage, together with ‘live stream’ listening. What’s more, it has a superb microphone pickup radius, reaching up to eight metres in a quieter environment. Other features also include:

• An inbuilt 32GB memory capacity providing over 20 days of onboard storage
• Overwrite capabilities, meaning the oldest files will be overwritten when the storage is full
• Remote formatting of the memory
• Large internal rechargeable lithium battery with up to 87 days standby time
• Straight record battery life of up to 30.5 hours
• Can be permanently connected to the mains or a USB source with the connection cable provided for longer term deployment
• Full battery recharge takes approximately six to seven hours

When it comes to the Air Freshener WiFi Bug’s power saving modes, mode A will allow the user to listen in at any time, receive alerts and auto voice record when sound is detected. This mode has a maximum battery life of 61 days, based on two to three activations per day. Power saving mode B is slightly more restricted, as it only allows live listening within a minute of a sound alert notification, but will give up to 87 hours standby/use based on two to three activations per day.

With its numerous features, it’s no surprise that this Wifi audio bug is one of the best hidden recording devices available on the market today.

Multi-Faceted Room Recorder

Versatility is the byword here, as the Air Freshener WiFi Audio Bug is a product that provides the ability to both record and listen as opposed to having two separate devices. This does require a location where there is WiFi connection, for example at home, in the office, a warehouse or in a shop. Providing you are deploying the listening device for a lawful purpose, the situations that would suit using a voice recording device are limitless.

Is this WiFi Air Freshener silent and discreet in operation?

Yes, the product is digital so there are no moving parts and being a specialist surveillance device, there are no sound notifications that would alert attention in any way.

Are there any lights that would indicate that the recording device is recording?

The device has a discreet blue LED that shows briefly when it has been switched on, to indicate when it is switched off and also when switched into settings mode, but other than this, no lights show when the device is recording. When on charge the LED shows red.

Do the recordings have a time and date reference?

Yes, as you would expect with a modern listening and recording device time and dating each recorded file is a feature that comes as standard, which means that subsequently you will know when something has occurred.

How well will the device still pickup sound if it is hidden away from view?

It’s always best to try to locate the device in an environment where it remains uncovered and in this case the Air Freshener enclosure really should help to have the product on show. However, if just hidden from view then in a quiet room 8 metres listening radius should be easily possible, but if placed in a drawer or maybe a bag, the coverage would be reduced dependant upon how heavily buried away it is.

Does the Air Freshener WiFi Bug actually give out a nice aroma like a normal air freshener would?

Because of the electronics within there is no dissolvable air freshener substance within, however, the cause on the front face of the unit can be sprayed with air freshener fluid and thereby give off an aroma for a period of time.
