[Spy ] Camera`s,.. - Highlander - 18 March 2013

Can anyone suggest a reasonable covert camera, that's powered by battery?.... possibly a `spy` camera, maybe like the type you put into nest boxes

I have a good `hidey hole`not too far from the house, and I would like to be able to watch the house from it without venturing out

Bloody good idea H L i would also like one of these....got a mains one but no good after the S

My first thought would that cctv systems are usually 12v

But the recorders etc are usually 240v


Two options, either go on eBay and purchase a cheap in car entertainment system with reversing camera, ran from a 12v battery. ......

Or. ....

Purchase an inverter, run your mains camera system from a battery


I'd be surprised if most people on here don't already have a 12v inverter though. I've always kept one for years!

good idea binnie will look at the car reverse job....cheers mate

Yes, that's a good idea, thanks I will look into that,... the only thing I am thinking here, is that I want the camera to be hidden and not spotted,... I have no idea yet what the reversing cameras look like

This one looks good, I like the night time operation too,... but I think the camera is too big for me

I like this one,.. smaller camera, long cable too

Not cheap, but you can't put a price on peace of mind Wink

Think you missed a section bud - my fault, should have given you the proper link!

Even solar powered now too! Now that's cool

They're all £150+ though.
