There are 2 kinds of wireless video signals, analog & digital. Analog refers to a RF(Radio Frequency). Only FCC approved RF video signals for consumers are 5.4GHz, 2.4GHz & 900 MHz (obsolete). RF video signal can be interfered by other wireless products in same frequency such as cordless phones and wireless routers. Level of interference varies depending on the proximity of the camera to the receiver and the interfering source. There may be no noticeable distortion in video to slight ~ heavy horizontal lines in video. On the other hand, digital wireless (wi-fi) have no interference at all.
Can a security camera itself record? such as a pinhole or a miniature camera?
No, unlike a camcorder, security cameras by themselves do not record. You will need to connect to a recorder such as a VCR, DVR or a PC with a recording software. However, we do carry "all-in-one" cameras that can record to it's built-in DVR and "self-contained system" that has a DVR attachment.
How can I connect a camera to a laptop?
All security cameras (except for web or wifi IP cameras) are composite video, so you will need to convert the signal to digital in order to connect to a laptop via USB port.
You can use a video capture device found in a computer store however most likely it will not come with a security recording software.

Most of our camera come with a power adapter that can handle form 110V ~240V AC.
In case of a direct AC plug-in camera such as clock radio camera
We will include the 220V to 110V (60Hz) step-down converter.
However, if your country uses 50Hz, the time on the clock, because it is digital, will not be correct (off about 20 min a day)
