Power Bank Voice Recorder

The rise of battery-powered personal devices means that seeing someone carrying a portable power pack is commonplace. Our Power Bank Voice Recorder looks and functions like a typical battery charging device, but it also offers the discreet capability of long-term sound recordings, making it ideal for evidence gathering.

Simple to Use Voice Recorder – Discreet Operation

Here at Spy Equipment UK we have had constant requests for a discreet, portable and self-contained recording solution with extensive battery life capability, that can be used openly in a variety of situations. These days, many people have battery-powered mobile devices that will often need charging, so having an external battery pack is now commonplace. As a result, the team at Spy Equipment UK have designed an innovative voice recorder disguised as an external power pack, so the user can capture important recordings without raising suspicion. It’s no surprise this high-tech device quickly became one of our top hidden audio recorders. The creation of the Portable Battery Pack Recorder has taken all these factors into account, as well as simplicity of use to make it either a professional or amateur audio surveillance companion for use when on-the-move.

Voice Activation – Large Memory Capacity

In standby mode, the unit draws minimal power, lasting up to 150 days; even during active recording, it can record continuously for nearly 14 days before needing a recharge. This impressive battery performance ensures that the battery pack recorder is ready for extended use in various situations, whether it’s left in a location for long-term monitoring or used continuously during crucial events. Users can select voice-activated or continuous recording by rotating the discreet bezel switch clockwise or counter-clockwise, respectively, before deployment. In addition, this revised model also has a sceduled recording function that allows for setting of one timed recording event (set via time setting program). These features offers flexibility in how the device is used, allowing for hands-free operation when sound activation is preferred, specific timing of recordng to capture an event or uninterrupted recording when complete audio capture is necessary.Other important features of the Portable Battery Charger Recorder include:

• Superb 1152 hour (32GB) recording memory.
• In continuous recording mode, the device begins recording immediately when switched on and only stops when manually switched off.
• In sound activation mode, recording begins when sound is detected and automatically stops and saves when silence lasts for at least one minute.
• In sceduled recording mode a recording will start at a pre-programmed time and run for a specified period
• The memory can store up to 9999 recorded files.
• The device records all sounds; it cannot differentiate between voices, TV, or other ambient noises.

Discreet Operation – Time and Date

The voice recorder provides no audible indication when recording. A small LED illuminates for 5 seconds to indicate the start of recording, thereby ensuring discreet operation. Other features include:

• Equipped with a very sensitive microphone, it records sounds up to 9 meters (29 feet) away.
• No special software is required.
• Simply connect the device to your computer via the included USB cable to play back sound files through your computer speakers.
• The device can add time and date stamps to each recording for easy reference. This feature is compatible with Windows PCs only.

Use as External Power Pack

This recording equipment both resembles and functions as a power bank, featuring a built-in 3000 mAh lithium-ion battery for charging devices like phones and tablets. When the device is not recording, its battery can charge external devices using a USB connection. The voice recorder contains a battery switch that will start the external charge process and also a set of LED indicators to show the state of the power bank’s own battery. A detachable magnetic strip is included to help secure the device in certain deployment situations. The device cannot function as a power bank while recording.

Massive Range of Deployment Opportunities

This voice recorder development from Spy Equipment UK, is incredibly versatile. Conceal it in plain sight to discreetly record crucial meetings, capture lectures verbatim, or document potential criminal activity. For home use, leave it to monitor your space while you’re away, providing peace of mind. Its exceptional battery life and ample recording memory allow for extended deployments. If anyone questions its authenticity, simply use it to charge a smartphone or tablet, proving its genuine power bank capabilities.
