VOICE RECORDER
SKU: MQ300
THANK YOU FOR PURCHASING THE 25-DAY STANDBY
VOICE RECORDER
Please read this manual before operating the 25-day standby voice
recorder and keep it handy.
This voice activated USB recorder is an upgrade from the AUSB. This
newer model features the same 4GB of internal storage, but can now
hold up 144 hours of audio. You can hang it on a lanyard or slip into a
pocket for discreet recording at the office or school, or to covertly
record voice as a secret shopper, investigator, or to simply record
notes and interviews.
The flash drive needs no cables or batteries, making perfect for the
covert operative on the go. Recording is as simple as a touch of the
button. Choose from straight normal recording or voice activation.
The voice activation feature allows you to avoid long hours of silent
recording and save battery life. This unit can be on standby for up to
25 days, waiting to pick up any voices there may be.
Your purchase should include:
1 x oice Recorder
1 x Instruction Booklet
