Camera Detector Reviews

fun unit to play with
by Koffie D. Rinker from East Coast USA, 2009-11-11

it found my wireless headset at work, but did not find my wireless mouse.

there was nothing else it found, probably a good thing, but since it did not find the mouse, it leaves me wondering.....

You never know!

I have used this device in many restrooms, only 1 out of about 20 had it go off, it was in a localized area (next to the wall)!

I even used it at work! My boss claimed to have a wireless camera installed "for security".
Well, it was a fake! I tested it! NOTHING! No beep, no flashing of the light!

I USED TO go tanning at an upscale salon chain. Not any more!
I went in one dimly lit room and it went off RIGHT in front of a large mirror, I thought "false alarm" and asked the sales girl for a different room, the same exact thing happened in that room!
It didn't go off all over the room, just in a localized spot!
I asked her about the frequencies and if the tanning beds would effect them and she said no. I canceled my membership!

There was once it went off in a friends apartment randomly, I forgot to turn it off after leaving a restroom, and when to her place, after about 20 minutes it started going off (it was sitting in my purse and hadn't moved since I got to her place) then stopped for a minute, then went off again, then stopped(FALSE ALARM). But the times it was in the tanning salon ( and the one restroom) it was a steady beeping (and flashing) in the a localized area(it beeps faster as it gets closer to the "camera").

I bought the for about $25.00 at ThinkGeek. I am SO glad I did! You just never know!

Don't buy this useless device unless you need an expensive key ring

Every store that sells this seems to charge different amounts (from $17 and up) and different shipping costs (from $4 to $14), so if you must buy it, shop around. But I suggest you not buy it and wait until something better comes along. Sure, it beeps and the light flashes, but it does this ALL OVER THE PLACE. Either the CIA is monitoring my activities in every room of my house and where I work, or this thing can't discern between the myriad waves that are apparently traveling through the air everywhere. It beeps by light switches. It beeps by windows. It beeps near computers. It beeps near TVs. It beeps at solid walls. It beeps in the middle of rooms. If it detects and alerts you to everything, how can you tell if one of the alerts is actually a camera? Well, you can't.

Works fine but not only detects hidden cameras

Ok, it works fine but not only detects hidden cameras. As says in the description "Detects frequencies from 50MHz to 3GHz" so if you have anything that works in between those frequencies this detector will found it and the alarm will be activated (even though is not a hidden camera).
