IDAODAN Dummy Security Camera, Fake Cameras CCTV Surveillance System with Realistic Simulated LEDs for Home Security + Warning Sticker…

 Poorly designed. I put in the batteries and one bright bulb flashing beside the lens does not look at all real. Nightvision cameras work by emitting constant low red light around the lens. If you have a burglar looking to break in, and he knows what to look for, he’ll know straight away this is fake. I’m going to use it but without the light. Disappointing.

Was easy to install and lightweight, cant tell if its real or not, takes two AAA batteries

To wall mount like in the photos, you have to undo one screw and flip the arm around. Not a big deal, but be prepared as there is no directions.
When screwing to the wall the cheap plastic broke on the base on both cameras. One joint was too loose, so it had to be tightened and it broke when I did.

These are better than other cameras I have purchased! They seem to back up the product. The last purchase got damaged in the mail, but they contacted me the same day, and they asked for my address, said they will replace them, no problem. THey also came with two large, and two smaller security camera stickers, a great package deal.

The only reason these cameras received a 3 star rating is because there is no name on the side of the camera. Instead they printed CCD camera which is a dead giveaway for them being fake. CCD stands for Charged Coupled Device and was the go to sensor found in a lot of earlier Nikon cameras, now replaced with BSI CMOS image sensors (Back Side Illuminated, Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor). No legitimate security cameras show the type of sensor used, just the company name. I wish these had some sort of LOGO for a company as apposed to the CCD camera printed on the side. Used a airbrush and masking tape to rectify that and put a false antenna on the top also.

I have issues with my neighbors, I can’t quite explain it and quite frankly, it’ll take too long to even try.
But the base of the point here is that I need cameras for security around my home at all times.
The street I live on isn’t the best when it comes to security, people keep everything under hush and would much rather turn their cheek than notify their neighbors if they spot a break in.
People here can NOT be trusted. So I need all the help I can get!
The issue with this is that most home security systems cost an actual arm and leg to have installed on my premises.

I adore these dummy cameras so much because it gives off the illusion of keeping my property secure without having to spend too much.

For nearly 10 bucks, you get 2 amazing quality cameras that look like the real deal.
You can’t go wrong with that!

I put them up and was so shocked at how realistic they looked, the attention to detail is what really gives the illusion.
The fact that they even blink red, makes it look like they are recording.
Which in turn, makes my neighbors be on their best behavior when they spot them out of the corner of their eye.

They arrived in a nice grey plastic bag, wrapped in yellow duct tape.
I was a bit taken aback by the sight of the package, I didn’t expect to see something so mysterious arrive at my doorstep.
But I am glad, because the last thing you’d want to do is show off these “dummy” cams to your neighbors in plain sight.
That will make the illusion not so realistic. lol
So the fact that IDAODAN went out of their way to make sure everything was concealed really spoke measures to me.

They come in packs of two.
Two individual boxes that are basically the same thing.
The box itself is nicely illustrated and adorn with images and information.
Inside the box, your dummy cams are nicely wrapped in bubble wrap.
You also get a little sticker to attach below your cams or on your window that states
for a lack of a better way of explaining it–“This house is under surveillance”

-All that is included is:
Dummy Security Indoor / Outdoor Camera, Weatherproof
Battery compartment is behind removable LED lens
Blinking LED and realistic wiring make it appear to work as a real security camera. Blinking Red LED that flashes in 5 second intervals
Bracket Arm Movement: 0 degrees ~ 90 degrees Downward Tilt, 0 degrees ~ 360 degrees L/R Rotation
Easy to mount , with screws
Powered by 2 AAA batteries (not included)
A Security Sticker included

You simply insert your AAA batteries and attach your cams pretty much anywhere and everywhere.
I am thinking of buying a few more myself to put them on all four corners of my house and even some inside, so I can start entertaining guests again.

To sum it all down, for the dollar…this product is a steal. (no pun intended!) lol
I highly approve and recommend.
5/5

-How I review:
Based on those 5 mentions above, I take everything into consideration before posting a final review.
Also, I use mere common sense when it comes to rating. Is the product worth this amount of stars? Is it not? What would I improve?
Is the negative I dislike, if any at all, something that is an error in construction & design or is it something the company couldn’t possibly control?
And, if all else fails, can I do something to alternate or change the ability of this negative?
All this and more is considered before I post.

I do a lot of shopping on Amazon, so I decided to take the liberty to post reviews on items I think deserve it.
Because I want people who are genuinely interested to know more about the product before they commit.
These are my own opinions, I am doing this review merely for the sake of reviewing and expressing my freedom to review.
Thank you!
