IMPORTANT INFO RE: SURVEILLANCE CAMERAS
In the past, surveillance equipment was only used by the government and private investigators. But now more and more people are finding a need for this specialized equipment. Millions of people are using “nanny cams” to check their baby sitters, surveillance cameras to keep an eye on their homes and businesses and hidden cameras to catch theft, abuse and infidelity. No other method can give you the proof or evidence that a surveillance camera can.
Our products are easy to install yourself. If however, you have a problem, we will be glad to have someone from our tech support team to give you a call and walk you through everything.
We want to help you find the surveillance system that is right for you. But before you get started, there are 3 important benefits, besides the fact that our cameras are hand crafted, that set our cameras apart from others.
2.4 Ghz Transmitters: We use only high powered 2.4 Ghz transmitters that can send video signals up to three times further than other transmitters.
Battery Packs: You have to supply power to wireless surveillance and hidden cameras. This is usually done with a battery pack. Most battery packs can only supply power for up to 5 hours. Then you have to throw that pack away and get a new one. N But our 12 volt battery pack lasts up to a whopping 8 hours …. and is rechargeable!
Lens Technology: CCD (Charged Coupled Device) is the lens we use in our cameras. There are cheaper lenses on the market, but none of them produce the high quality images that CCD lenses do. CCD lenses are high resolution and highly sensitive to light, allowing them to record in outdoor and low light conditions.
Now a word of warning! There are many cameras out there that use 1.2 Ghz transmitters and receivers. We have been asked why we don’t use them. The reason is 1.2 GHz frequency is not approved by the FCC for transmitting wireless video. The FCC is aware of the situation and is conducting an ongoing investigation into the production and distribution of 1.2 GHz surveillance products. All of our hidden cameras are FCC approved 2.4 GHz.
STATES WITH PEPPER SPRAY RESTRICTIONS
Pepper spray, although made from an item you can get in the produce section, is considered a weapon by most civilized countries, and is restricted to some extent in nearly all of them. Pepper spray causes temporary blindness, pain, breathing problems and panic. When it's used excessively, it can kill.
In some states, you can buy pepper spray, but the amount is restricted, and you can be arrested or fined if your cannister contains more than the amount specified by law. Some states regulate the allowed strength of the pepper spray. Most sprays contain somewhere between 2% and 10% of capsaicin, the primary componet of capsicum. Pepper sprays that also contain tear gas may be illegal in some states but not in others, so that before you decide to buy a spray, you should find out what the state and local ordinances say about their possession.
According to pepper spray manufacturers, pepper spray as a personal defense weapon is considered legal in all 50 states, although various state restrictions may prevent shipping to several states. Some manufacturers may ship their bear spray (a stronger pepper spray made to deter an attacking bear) to states where pepper spray can't be shipped as a weapon. However, if someone is found to have used bear spray on a person, there are all sorts of interesting questions about it's legal use (unless that person happens to be doing a highly convincing bear act). Pepper spray isn't sold to minors or to people who have been convicted of a felony. A few instances of state regulations follow. Check with your local police force on the restrictions and permissible use of pepper spray in your area. And never take pepper spray with you when you travel by air.
Animal Repellents (including dog and bear sprays) can be legally shipped to and purchased from online retailers in all 48 contegious states, including the restricted below.

similar to tear gas.

agent and will immdiately incapacitate an
assailant.
*Commonly, Mace has no affect on criminals
under the influence of drugs or alcohol.

temporary pain to those under the influence.
