Desktop Charger Camera

The Desktop Charger Camera will fit into many different environments without attracting attention. This makes it ideal as a covert WiFi spy camera enclosure. This product has a wide angle lens, ensuring that a larger area is covered within view and it is able to record video with audio in 1080p high definition, taking power from the mains so there are no troublesome battery issues. The resulting video footage is of very high quality, so there can be no mistake with regards to what has happened on camera.

Compatible With iPhone & Android Phones

This new Desktop Charger Camera Dock replaces two other charging dock products that we previously offered, each of which had a specific connector for Android or iPhone. The new product has three interchangeable charging connectors, these being USB type-C, Android Micro USB and Apple Lightning. This ensures that the dock can be used with many generations of the latest iPhones and Android phones as well as some tablet devices, both Apple and Android (not all tablets will suit the charging dock tip arrangement).

Both WiFi & IP Capability

The system has both WiFi and IP capability, by so using an app on your Smartphone or tablet, you can watch ‘live’ from the other side of the world if desired (requires local router link-up) or you can control, stream video and setup the device without need for a router from a distance of up to 50 metres. It is possible to download recorded video, set the time to match that on your smartphone or tablet, start/stop recording, format the SD card and even hide the SSID, so nobody else can detect your covert WiFi camera unit. The memory storage is a micro SD card system with a maximum capacity of 32 GB, so there should be ample space for recorded video footage.

Motion Detection Recording – Ideal for Evidence Gathering

Probably one of he most important features of a camera that is used for room video surveillance is the need for motion activation, which ensures that video recordings are only made when the camera detects movement within its view. This Desktop Charger Camera uses ‘through the lens’ monitoring technology to achieve this and also records time and date on the footage in addition to watermarking, something that makes this product perfect for gathering video suited for evidential purposes.

Switchable Day and Night Mode

The downside of many spy cameras is the ability to capture decent imagery in low light conditions. The majority will work reasonably in well lit areas but, when lighting becomes dim, camera imagery reduces severely. The Desktop Charger Camera can be used in good daylight, artificial light and low light scenarios. It is not possible however to use in complete darkness, but there are not many circumstances where this would be absolutely necessary.

Totally Discreet operation

The design of this desktop charger is fairly generic, so it physically should not attract much attention. The operation of the device is totally discrete in that there are no flashing lights, sounds or other alerts that would give rise to suspicion in any way that the dock is anything other than what it appears to be. This allows for placement in a whole variety of scenarios and situations.

Standalone DVR or Remote Live Monitoring

The Desktop Charger Camera is versatile in every respect because it will fit into home and office environments, it can be used to charge many generations of Android and iPhones as well as some tablet devices, but it does not need to be charging a mobile device to work as a surveillance system. Instead, it can simply work away as a self-contained DVR system capturing video evidence (with audio) for later watching or in the capacity of a live video monitoring system that can be viewed remotely on iPhone and Android Smartphones, as well as Android and Apple tablets (free downloadable app). Such powerful features certainly ensure that this is one spy camera system that is worth considering for home or office.
