Very realistic looking!,
This looks just like the real thing. The sensor that triggers the red light is very good & picks things up from quite a distance.
I made it look even more real, by taking the wires out of an old broken (battery operated) toy that my Son had and glueing them under the batteries in the dummy camera where there was a little hole going into the device. I used rubber cement (like E6000 that you can find in any sewing department). I then made a little notch in the battery door and strung the wires out of the camera through there. I drilled my pilot holes for the screws that the bracket attaches to. I then drilled another small hole in the ceiling next to the pilot holes and under where the bracket for the camera would go. I put glue on the end of the wires and threaded them into that hole. I then installed the camera and bracket over that hole I drilled.
This way if someone ever pulls the camera out of the ceiling to see if it’s real, they will be pretty sure their photo was taken when they realize they just ripped a bunch of wires out of the ceiling – that were attached to the camera.

|Good looking, bad motion detection,
I bought 4 of these, they install easily, and look realistic enough. The exception is that the motion sensor has a range of 1-2 feet. Not one of the four I bought had a range of more than that. Which means, it’s almost impossible to mount so that people walking by will trip the sensor and cause the led to blink. I mounted one over a door, and I’m 5’10″ tall. Even when I stand right in front of it and wave my hands, the sensor won’t catch it.
It’s hard to complain for the price, and coupled with fully functioning video cameras and security system, it serves its purpose. But I think it may be better to take the batteries out and leave it completely passive.

|motion sensor review,
I read all the reviews of this type of item before purchasing and decided to try it anyway. Some said the motion sensor did not work, and that was my initial experience, but then found it does work in dim light or the dark, but not in bright light. Otherwise, it looks good and hope it will do its job. I purchased two, very inexpensively, but the shipping charge seemed high and turned out to be 3 times what the seller actually spent on shipping. Oh well.
