CAMSTICK WITH
NIGHT VISION
SKU: CAMSTICKNV
THANK YOU FOR PURCHASING THE CAMSTICK WITH
NIGHT VISION
Please read this manual before operating the camstick with night
vision and keep it handy.
The CamstickNV looks and functions like an ordinary flash drive. Yet
this storage camstick conceals a DVR capable of recording both audio
and quality color video. The flash drive needs no cables or batteries,
making perfect for the covert operative on the go. It doesn't need to
be plugged in. Recording is as simple as a touch of the button.
This model records 1280*960 resolution video to a MicroSD card that
can range from 2GB–128GB. You can choose between continuous
recording, taking photographs, and using night vision. The built-in
battery can last up to 1.5 hours.
Your purchase should include:
1 x Camstick with Night Vision
1 x USB Cable
1 x Instruction Booklet
