      looks like it, and looks like a pen ..

      might be good for all the partners of ozbargainers to covertly see what they are buying in ozbargain, esp after the ebay deal today …

    How suspicious would a pen in the locker room be?

      Worth a look but surely inferior to the swann pen?

      • kronicmacstigator on 23/06/2014 - 20:46

        Don't let the name fool you, Swann is usually bargain basement stuff now :(

  • PleasureMe on 23/06/2014 - 01:39

    Good deal, thanks OP. It's probably worth mentioning that delivery is $9 or click+collect is $5.

      $5 to pick it up in store? tell 'em they're dreamin'

      • paulaus on 23/06/2014 - 10:04

        fREE for over $40 buy something for 10 bucks.

  • lostn on 23/06/2014 - 03:08

    These always have terrible PQ.

  • AeyJey on 23/06/2014 - 03:57

    it has blue LED light which will blink when its recording. im pretty sure u wont be able to use it as spy cam. any idiot will notice LED light blinking from someones pocket.

      Um, heard of black tape?

      • xfiledavid on 23/06/2014 - 07:03

        what is the resolution and picture quality like with black tape?

        • rawm on 23/06/2014 - 10:06

          Wouldn't the blinking LED be in another spot, separate to the actual lens?

        • AeyJey on 23/06/2014 - 11:39

          its really close together with the actual camera lens. one of my friend got it. i think its the same swann one

      Most of them will not notice because they are not idiots.

    not good reviews

  • majord on 23/06/2014 - 10:32

    Had the Aldi/coocoon one of these. Peice of crap.

    Fov far too narrow
    Pen didn't work properly
    Pocket clip came loose in 2 weeks
    Entire assembly became loose in the pen body

    Then lastly , dropped it from about 1m and it broke in two at the point where it joins, snapping the pcb.

    Given these things are all generic clones of eachother I wouldn't count on this being any better, but you never know. Appears to have all the same Fov and iq problems according to reviews though

    Shirt pocket + smart phone camera = better

    No one seems to have stocks in SE Melbourne anyway

    Doing a tour in couple of countries at the end of the year. Thought this would come in handy if anyone asks for bribes :)

  • HN Professional on 24/06/2014 - 14:54

    Spyware savvy people, I have a question:

    The recent Channel Nine segment on organised mail thieves has suckered me in (doesn't help that I've just noticed that my Medicare card expired 2 years and I haven't received it) and am wondering if this would serve my purpose? ie. to notify me when the postman drops something in my postbox so that I can run out Gollum style and exclaim, "My Preciiious".

    Or something similar to a wireless motion sensor? (Don't think that'd fit in my tiny flat/unit postbox :'-( )

    • rmamila on 24/06/2014 - 15:42

      If you put this pen in your post box, most probably you'll loose your precious mails + this pen. I don't think the ones who steal the mails would spare something like this.

      You need an IP camera with motion sensor.

      • HN Professional on 25/06/2014 - 10:50

        :-) I had considered wrapping it up in a wrinkled up old Aldi catalogue (leaving only a pinprick where the camera was). Oh well, back to the old running back in and out option.

      I would suggest you craft a Goonies inspired Rube Goldberg system to alert you when mail is received.

      • HN Professional on 25/06/2014 - 10:56

        Believe me, if I could rig up a wire tied to my toe, I would!
