The spypoint will work fine. Make sure and set the reciever within range. They might find the camera but you can hide the receiver. Receiver does not receive all pictures from the camera.

Small size and if you want you can buy the armor cage. Be aware that the wireless section only records stills. And yes it says that in the set up but most must not read it. Test the reception for the stealth portion, easy to do and lets you know if you are in range. Worth the bucks, catches thieves!

I sent mine back. I couldn't get it to connect to the remote unit. I have dealt with wireless networks for work and home for years and found this to be not reliable or easy to use.

Spypoint is small but there are other game cams that are small and easier to set up without the remote feature

The IR light gives away the cameras position. Try Wildgame blackout. Small and no lights to give away it's position

i have two of these. well, i kind of have 2. a new one has been sent to me, for the second time because i could not get it to work. i bought it in may, and still do not have it working. do not buy one unless you enjoy wasting your time.

Thi camera is an excellent choice. It is made well, easy to use. I am actually purchasing two more cameras after using the two I initially purchased a year ago. Please note though you cannot copy video to the receiver only pictures
1814447
This will work fine for that. Can you mount it within 35-40" of the signs? I will tell you, the remote sucks, it is very unreliable. Also, you are better off using something that is in video mode rather than the photo array mode. I use UWAY U150 cameras, they have a severe infant mortality problem but they take the best video's of anything I've tried. And trust me, I have a lot of paperweights and doorstops laying around.

I love my spy point ..... I had a trail camera locked and bolted to a tree two seasons ago and someone beat it off the tree.... So I got the spy point with the black box so if by chance it got stolen I would have the pictures of the person and it's easy to use and takes great pics and video

Its a decent camera need to be smart about where you place it the flash is visible and the little receiver box really only works for about 50 feet .I caught some poachers on mine they saw it flash luckily I had it in a lock box. Picture quality is fair

this may work. It needs to be mounted on a tree trunk and high enough to be out of reach. also needs to be within approx. 40 feet of target. Mount camera inside spypoint metal box and padlock it. Also needs a cable lock around tree. (Master brand is good cable lock) I don"t like spypoint"s camera mount; it is JUNK. HME products has a good mount @14.99 (amazon) This camera is totally black at night; no lights of any kind from the unit. If the link between the camera and the remote is good, you will get same pictures in the event camera is destroyed or stolen. Hope you catch the LOW LIFE vandal. this may work.

What's good about this one is that they may see it but have no idea to search for the back up . It has worked great for my clients and I would definitely recommend.

Yes it is really small and easy to use problem is that there is a small red light that opens when filming IMO try the new black light...spypoint w3
1814453
Small..simple to set up. Does not have blackout LEDs so they could see the red flash at night...just have the receiver set an well hidden.

We have one of these mounted to a carport pole facing up our driveway. It does not flash, so would not be easy to spot at night. Not only that, but if for some reason they do see the camera, the picture would still be contained on the remote unit which can be hidden over 90 feet away. Therefore you'd still have their picture. If you can use a standard digital camera, this should be easy for you to operate.

We have caught 2 thieves with them from a range of about 40 ft. We have tried others that really were not so clear and not as sensitive to reach 40 ft. Make sure you have no trees in the background, it will pick them up pretty good and will keep the motion alarm ringing when there is wind. We use at our place of business.

Yes it's excellent for outdoor light but wont recommend using it for motion-detection.

I use one for each side of a road sign. They work great, but keep in mind that if you have a dark, rainy day (or several days of rain), there may be times when the light doesn't come on (welcome to solar energy). Also, a lot of folks don't place the solar panel in the correct position and it doesn't get the correct amount of sunlight. Always position the panel to face south if possible and be clear of shade and you'll have a lot better results.

There are small infrared lights for night time vision. It's not too bright but bright enough for the camera

Yes you could, and there would be no theft alarm as such, just a message transmitted to show that you have moved and others to show your progress. However, you may wish to consider the SPOT Gen3, a similar product which has been designed more for what you describe.

It has motion detection and light sensing. I installed one outside. It only lights when it senses motion at night.

This is not expensive and easy to hook up, its like a motion detector, I have a soft top jeep, and anyone that gets around the vehicle, it will relay an alarm like a warning if they continue to stay by vehicle it will go off until you dis arm hope this helps

If that is what you want a light sensor might be a better choice. There are socket adapters readily available with sensors. As 'crazy for christmas' pointed out, this timer can be programmed to come on at sunset and remain on a set number of hours, which could be changed as the season progresses to be close to dawn.

I have not received mine yet, but based on the pictures, I would think that a good cut resistant steel cable looped through a vehicle bumper or something similar (two cinder blocks is 80 lbs) with a strong pad-lock would at least deter a would-be thief somewhat. If a thief wants something bad enough they will find a way to get it. (Make sure that your system is listed on your homeowners insurance.) I plan on having a motion activated light & alarm aimed right at my charger as well.

It is not flashy and it is very small in size...it will not block your rear window

Just make sure you hide it properly. The element of surprise will usually catch a person and move away. There's a magnet on the alarm it sticks pretty good if not use those gray packing tape.

Yeah, we have some Speco cams that have invisible IR lights. So they are not visible at night. It seems the invisible IR lights are getting harder and harder to find these days.

If theft is a concern, you might want to use a different lighting approach. This unit is very small and easy to disconnect and carry off.

We purchased this for the exact purpose to find end of our driveway in the dark. It wasnt as what we expected. You can see some but not as reflective as we wanted. In the end we just bought some reflective markers and lenses from home depot. Hope this answered your question.

Just one of these sucks. Two suck twice as much.They are good at detecting movement though. They detect cars pulling in the driveway, people walking up the driveway, animals as small as squirrels in my driveway or in the neighbor's yard, and tree leaves moving in the slightest of breezes. I think they can detect ghosts too. I look out the window after the alarm sounds and there is no one there.

You could also get a handheld metal detector, and use a wire brush to brush the boards. . you also need to lookout for rocks, dirt, or other small dense objects
