Clock Spy Camera PIR ULTRA Long Standby

Clock Spy Camera PIR ULTRA Long Standby

Model Number – PIRCLKWF

Description
Pictured below is our new ultra-long standby WiFi clock camera. With No Glow IR Night Vision and a built in PIR motion sensor, this hidden clock camera is actively seeking human motion to enable recording.  The PIR senses body heat (similar to a home alarm system) which triggers the camera into silently and discreetly recording and at the same time, sending a push alert to your phone.  All clock camera functions are controlled from the password enabled mobile phone App.

LED Clock Time Display
This is a spy camera first and foremost and a functional time clock with a wake up alarm. However, it's important to understand that the time display will auto switch off after 10-20 seconds.  To see the time display, tap the top of the camera.  The time will illuminate but after 10-20 seconds, the LED time display will automatically switch off.  

Unlike our other clock hidden cameras which display the time 24/7 those clock cameras are powered. Other clock cameras also have internal rechargeable batteries but do not have the ultra long standby unlike this camera. This feature is necessary to conserve battery power and whilst the clock can be 5V powered, that doesn't alter the time display function. Some like the idea of a bedside clock but others don't necessarily want to see the night time LED illumination which suits some but not all.  

Model A or B
Please note this device is available in two model options.  If you order this camera online, by default you receive the Model B which has the LED clock function so no need to do anything more. Don't forget to order your SD memory card up to 64GB at the checkout.  Order an SD memory card from HCS and we will install the card into your camera, bench test in WiFi mode then leave some video and audio tuition on the memory card for you to see and listen.  

Model A on the other hand looks identical to model B but has no clock time display. It's the same Ultra long standby spy camera albeit without the internal clock. No cost difference just personal preference. If Model A is your preferred camera selection, call our office 1300 763235 or email sales@hiddencamera.com.au and let us know you prefer Model A.  

The built in mini HD camera, microphone and WiFi module enters into a sleep mode when there is no activity thus conserving battery power.  However, when the PIR motion sensor detects "real motion" up to 5m away, this triggers the hidden clock camera to awaken and discreetly record for a certain time before resuming hibernation mode. It does this each time motion is detected but can also be set to arm and disarm at time of your choosing so that it not active 24/7 perhaps during the night only.     

This hidden WiFi clock camera is slightly different to others because it’s fitted with a PIR motion sensor rather than pixel movement. The PIR is seeking “body heat” to trigger the camera into recording and as such, more adept to real motion detection capability eliminating false triggers.

The built in mini WiFi module allows authorised users only to access this pinhole spy camera anytime and anywhere securely and discreetly.  To see the camera live and play SD card recordings, open the App from any other WiFi hotspot or if no WiFi is available, 4G is also fine. Our new super long battery standby WiFi clock spy camera even has no glow IR night vision with live audio.  At any time you can simply view the camera live with audio and if you like, press record on the App and save what you see directly to your phone memory. This can be handy if you receive a motion push alert and you want to record regardless of whether the camera is recording.

Other functions include a built in microphone and speaker so you can in effect have a two way audio conversation. Other functions include a motion siren alert and mobile phone push alerts.  In some instances, you may be on the move or at home and perhaps a person enters your office. The IP clock spy camera detects that motion and with App enabled push alerts armed, you receive a phone alert basically telling you the camera is sensing motion. Did we mention that this camera App supports sharing.  That's right if you want to share your WiFi clock covert spy camera with friends or relatives (password protected) you can do so. 

This Clock Wi-Fi PIR security camera looks exactly like any regular desk clock however, it's a HD motion activated security spy camera with 24/7 live video & audio recording with live streaming. Ultra-long 365 days battery standby with up 5 meter No Glow IR night vision. Silently and secretly record whenever motion is detected, auto saved to a concealed micro SD memory card up to 64GB. 

Set to high resolution recording it will consume video memory at about 24MB/ minute. A 64GB Class 10 SD card based on this calculation, will use about 1.4GB of memory per hour of recording. Therefore, a 64GB micro SD memory card can store up to 45 hours of constant video before it’s full.  Even when the ultra-long standby WiFi clock camera no glow IR hidden spy camera memory card is full, loop recording means it will auto overwrite the memory card commencing from the earliest recording date. Should you prefer to set STOP recording when the SD card is full, it can do that too.

With a massive battery standby time up to 1 year on one battery charge, this makes the perfect surveillance security camera without the limitation of powered or standard battery-operated cameras.  Whilst the clock can be exposed for all to see, it doesn’t have to be and can of course be hidden or concealed if preferred.

What’s the difference between a DVR & WiFi Spy Camera?
There is a difference between our extra-long standby WiFi PIR clock hidden spy camera and a similar but cheaper DVR spy camera. HCS has a range of DVR hidden cameras as well and they do work very well often preferred by those not so technically inclined or not too interested in the remote access. 

To briefly explain, a DVR hidden camera (say a clock radio) will be supplied with a mini wireless push button remote control to arm and disarm motion or constant recording. The wireless remote control enables the camera to be switched on/off and stop/start recording but not much more. The options with DVR spy cameras are not as advanced compared to WiFi Hidden Cameras.

To view or playback DVR spy camera recordings most remove the camera memory SD card  or connect the camera to PC USB and replay recorded video clips.  Our ultra-long standby WiFi clock camera no glow IR hidden spy camera supports anywhere from 16GB to 64GB Micro class 10 memory card although recordings can be remotely viewed from PC or smart phone. 1080P HD WiFi spy cameras will in most cases allow the user the select recording resolution and motion recording duration etc although DVR hidden cameras in most instances won’t have quite as many options.

Hidden Camera Surveillance (HCS) new dummy WiFi router spy camera needs the authorised user to download our free Iphone or Android App. Users may view the camera live from anywhere and/or share with other password authorised users. Users have the option to select recording quality and duration including motion detected push alerts. 

The ultra-long standby WiFi clock hidden camera requires the user to download a free Iphone or Android App. Users can than view the camera live from anywhere and/or share with other password authorised users. If not sure please don’t hesitate to call our office for advice.

Users have the option to select recording quality and duration including motion detected push alerts.  When the memory card is full, the IP spy camera will auto overwrite the SD card from the earliest recording date. Recording at a slightly lower resolution means faster remote access and faster download.

Tell me more
Our ultra-long standby WiFi clock camera PIR hidden camera has a range of recording options including Scheduled recording, Constant Recording or Motion Detection recording not to mention motion triggered mobile phone push alerts.

Customers may live view the camera directly from their smart phone and listen in. In fact, it supports a two way conversation if desired. Depending on network upload and download speed, live video and audio can at times be slow or at times drop out like a phone call.  This isn’t a camera fault. Network speed and camera resolution settings etc all play a role in how fast or slow the live view and playback recording will be. Higher resolution uses more data so remotely processing that data can result in a slower live view and/or recording download speed.

For that reason, if using an optional SD memory card, the camera will record audio and video in real time. To view the actual SD card recording in real time, sometimes it’s necessary to download that video clip locally or remotely and save the recording to phone or PC.  

An SD card isn’t essential but users can only record to mobile phone memory when actively live viewing.  An SD card slotted into the WiFi clock spy camera regardless of any network connection allows for recording directly to the internal micro memory card.   In other words, it’s not necessary to be live viewing the camera to record. If WiFi is switched off or the camera moved to another non WiFi location, it will still record as normal even with no Internet. It simply means you won’t have remote camera access.

How does motion detection recording work?
The App allows the authorised user/s (remote access can be shared if required) to select motion detection on or off.  If this feature is armed, then each time the camera detects motion up 5m away, it will record in real time for whatever duration you set which could be a few seconds or minutes (it’s your choice) including audio. This is commonly referred to as Alert or alarm recording. It also allows for searching recordings by calendar, time, and date or by Alerts. If motion continues beyond the set recording duration, the Ultra Long Standby WiFi PIR Clock camera will continue to record until motion ceases.

Furthermore, if desired and with the camera in WiFi mode user/s can opt to receive mobile phone motion triggered push alerts. By clicking on the alert, locally or remotely play that recording without the need to search. 

If Constant Recording is preferred over motion detection, this feature will constantly record when armed and stop recording when disarmed but can be set arm and disarm at times that you choose.  Constant recording has a much larger data file so locally or remotely downloading that file could be slow and will fill the SD card faster. To view constant recording files, best to switch the camera off, remove the SD card and connect it to PC USB using an SD card reader. 

This camera is battery powered so constant recording is a constant draw on power.  This WiFi clock hidden camera can also record whilst being charged but when set to motion detection recording, “sleep mode” it conserves battery power. The more often the camera is recording, longer the recording duration, frequently remote accessing the camera, the faster it will use battery power. Users will receive a push alert when battery power is low and see battery status during a live camera view. Not really any issue for a spy camera such as this because this hidden spy clock camera can be working and charging simultaneously.

Can anyone see the camera?
It’s a question often asked and rightly so. In short, the answer is no. When entering a shop, home, warehouse, or office, often your phone will depict several wireless routers within immediate range. Other than your personal router, all other routers are private and can’t be accessed for security reasons obviously, hence the password access.

In this regard, when the camera is switched on, after a minute or so, you will see a UID number appear in your mobile phone WiFi settings. The UID does NOT refer to a camera or anything of that nature as it’s just a series of numbers and letters only.

For example, the UID may look like TCAM-277y3Hy49. To any other person with a mobile phone or PC, for all intents and purposes the UID number could belong to a neighbour’s router but clicking on the UID won’t do anything. Only App authorised users are permitted access and your WiFi password and camera password is required. Authorised user/s must have the correct registered App so again, no need for concern.  Remote camera access on the other hand can be shared with others but only with your permission.
