I use high-quality AA batteries and obtain around 10 months of effective red light blinking before the light begins to slowly fade.

The unit has a professional appearance, seemingly real and of high quality.

You will need additional cable to make it appear to actually be hooked up unless you can mount it where the attached short cable can be shoved into a hole drilled into a wall or something.

I use my fake camera inside, sitting on a shelf where an intruder, especially at night, is likely to notice the flashing red LED light.

I rigged up an indoor AM radio antennae to make it appear attached to the “camera’s” cable output, thus conceivably transferred to a monitor or recording device elsewhere… well, at least conceivably so. Just to add to the illusion an intruder is either under observation or is being recorded.

In a dark room at night the blinking red light sticks out akin to the proverbial sore toe. Or is it a sore thumb? Or that pesky third eye in the middle of the forehead I have seen in those Hairy Krishna books.

How effective would this faux unit be at deterring a no-good-nik intent upon larceny? Who knows. I can envision the unit making an amateur run off upon seeing what appears to be an active camera in operation.

I doubt a professional criminal believing there is real wealth within the invaded area would be deterred but if you have real wealth you likely can afford a real deterrent!!!

The unit does not need to be attached to a wall to convey the illusion of or reality. Sitting upon a shelf or a desk can also be effective in creating the illusion of reality.
