Operating Instructions
To effectively detect hidden cameras, follow these steps:
- Darken the Environment: For optimal detection, use the device in a dark or dimly lit environment. Hidden cameras often use infrared for night vision, which is more visible in low light.
- Activate Detection: Turn on the detector. The red LED lights will activate.
- Scan the Area: Hold the detector to your eye and look through the optical filter. Slowly scan the room, paying close attention to common hidden camera locations.
- Identify Reflections: If a hidden camera is present, you will observe a visible red reflective spot through the filter. This reflection comes from the camera lens.
- Investigate Suspicious Spots: If you find a suspicious reflective spot, move closer and observe carefully to confirm if it is indeed a camera lens.
The detector can identify cameras from a distance of 6 to 8 meters, allowing for thorough room inspection.

Lighting Modes
The device offers three distinct lighting modes to assist in detection:
- Steady Light Mode: Provides continuous red illumination for general scanning.
- Slow Flash Mode: The red lights flash slowly, which can help in distinguishing reflective spots more easily.
- Fast Flash Mode: The red lights flash rapidly, enhancing the visibility of reflective points, especially in challenging environments.
Cycle through these modes by pressing the ON/OFF button repeatedly until you find the most suitable mode for your environment.
