your video seems fine but we have two cameras we can't get the light to flash (turn on motion detection with either. Any suggestions?

Can i ask aomething??The range of detection how many meters are??And one more thing....I put the camera to detection and when the first video stop then the camera turn off

How long until it die if its just on motion detector?

[@Thegregaman01]

Thanks for explaining how to set up the motion detection. I just got mine today, shipped from China. I think it's great for the price!

[@micdal22]

Thank you for the review and user information which is very helpful. I got one a week ago and it's been challenging getting to use it, largely because the included documentation is pretty lousy (Chinese English) and the only user feedback is via a single LED which can be hard to see/decode in bright light.. I agree that the image is not great, but given the low cost, small size and what it can do, it's still an amazing gadget.

THANK YOU!!!! I had no idea this little cam could do all of this when I bought it! I didnt know it was a popular item as well! It will serve its purpose for me while my home is under some remodeling ...and how some items are going missing ....

Ok, I have a question. I'm trying to figure out how mice are getting into my apartment. So, I need motion detection at night. Can you tell me how to do that? Loved both your videos by the way.

[@roverlights6113]

can you use the night vision together w the motion detection?

[@arnoldsbaltnegeris3962]

Already have bought three of these. The first one had quite good quality video, the motion detection and night vision functioning. Whereas the other two have strange zoomed in video of bad quality, and the motion detection not functioning + one of them had strange background sounds during recording. It's just game of luck, whether you can buy a good one, and more likely that the motion detection will not work properly.

[@avibendavid4435]

thanks for the explanation, quite hard to follow your tempo but besides that great! thanks! can you also by any chance tell how can I watch the what I am recording on my phone? is it possible to see what you recording on your phone while you are recording?

After it has recorded 5 minutes in motion detection and there is motion again... will it start record again? Or will it go to standby mode!

[@lifestapestry2968]

It will record a second avi file and one for every other motion it detects...

[@fuelban]

Hi good and clear instruction, nice 1, do you know if there's any way to control the duration of recording time when set to motion senceing, my unit goes for about 5 minutes or so, and I can't find anything about setting the time, anyway, thanks again, Thom in Scotland.

what app do I use with it if I want to use it with my iPhone

[@John_Smile]

motion detection only works if the camera has a clear view of the moving lens. If the moving lens / person is behind a clear glass / display case, the camera does not detect movement.

[@MakiGirl2010]

Sorry but this is not true! I use it as a bird cam from inside a room through the glass window and it works!!

[@CeeJayKay]

When it is plugged in to charge, how long does it need to be recharged? How can you tell when it needs charging? Is the red light suppose to blink the whole time it is plugged in? Thank you for helping.

Can this device take pictures at set intervals with the motion detection function?

[@rendoirs]

@ChinaTech Hi. Someone has been scratching my car and I need a camera like this. Please tell me: 1) How large in size and in time are the clips resulting from motion detection? 2) In motion detection mode, the battery should last more than continuous recording. How long does it last in motion detection mode? 3) Can I record while charging? I want to leave it always charging so that motion detection never fails due to low battery. Thank you for your video

[@bradcoakley9803]

I believe it will record for 5 minutes. And yes, you can hook up a mobile phone charger to it and charge it while recording.

[@josephhamilton3758]

5 minute then off til further motion detected then five minute clips each time.

[@Μητσάκος]

Does motion detector works at night vision too?

[@roseplatt5342]

How to set motion and night vision together please

[@lifestapestry2968]

Press the power button until the blue light comes on, then press and hold the power button again for about 2 seconds, the light will flash red and blue. Now press and hold the mode button and release after 3 seconds, the lights will flash again and then dissapear. This is now in Night vision with motion activated.... If you want to test it, leave it for a minute, then put your hand in front of the camera and the blue light should blink to show it detected motion and starts recording...

For security reasons how long does this battery last if left on motion detection mode and I left my house for say a week? Would it still be able to work/detect intruders after say 5 days? Thanks for your help with this matter.

You made it easy thank you 🙏

[@albertgrover2735]

I bought a couple of these cameras to play with - I had ideas of setting one up as a door viewer for my more-or-less chair-bound mate, using a cheap eBay 7" monitor. Although all the videos I've seen about these cameras show a mini USB - RCA lead, none of mine came with one and the mini USB port isn't in common use for me to find one easily. Any idea where I could find them please?

[@JBT-up6ug]

Can I leave it in my car all night and expect that it will automatically start shooting video if there is motion or activity during? For example, somebody trying to open or hit the car? If not, do you know anther security camera that can do this? not a fancy or expensive one. (The less wiring the better) Thanks!

[@lifestapestry2968]

Not really, if you start it in motion detection, the battery will last you about an hour as the night time LED's zap the battery

[@Robck27]

I wanted to see a motion detection night mode sample

[@joereid1162]

Love your videos

[@rawheadrex]

Every one will want to know how sensitive the sensor is for motion , how far away from the camera you need to be to start the recording , that is the most important thing

[@differente3057]

Hi. Thank you for the review. I was thinking to buy this camera as car park guard, because of motion detection option. What do you think, would it be useful?

[@ChinaTechnology]

yeah it may be useful if you have it always powered on, just know that the video quality is not the best

[@laika1ish]

It won't work

[@pearbaron]

720p motion detection records only one 5 minute file. Exactly 5 minutes, never records a second file. How do I set it so it records files each time when triggered by motion?

[@ACABSTUDIOS]

That's pretty worthless since it's gonna get triggered when you set it down

[@minhazulsani6375]

can it record maximum 1 hour +?

Mine works only for a few seconds (about 10 to 40) and stops. What is the issue ? I charge the battery at each new attempt... I tried formating the card in NTFS it did not work at all. Then I formated it again in FAT32, it works again but only for about 10-40 seconds then it stops. I tried every sort of recording. I know the manual by heart... It works for taking pictures. For video only 720p work, never 1080 never motion detection and never more than about 40 seconds... ? I tested 2 different 32 go TF cards tested all OK... ??

[@Robert-dx4wv]

They should have a seperate button for motion cuz modes are more for like display options like resolution.

[@Robert-dx4wv]

To avoid confusion, one morr button i think there is space on the cam for that.

[@VitasLoWang]

Mine seems to be broken, or maybe the model you tested is no lnger being manufactured?! When I turne it on it is blue, when I press M once it gets RED - not red/blue as you have in video. And when I press and hold M - nothing happens and it keeps being red! I found this is the photo mode and pressing off/on takes photos. Actually pressing M only seems to switch between red and blue modes - 720p recording and photos. When I switch from red and blue a few times and it seems I can hold M and it DOES something - blinks 3 times red (not red/blue). I assume this is the motion detection mode? So I leave it for 2 minutes, but when I want to end it by pressing M - nothing happens and LED stays off. Seems like it is actually powered off. When I connect it to a PC, there is no new video! I found out that in this mode with LED off it is actually FHD mode! When I am in it and press switch key it blinks 3 times red/blue and records FHD video. Pressing switch key blinks red/blue again and stops the video. So there just seems to be no motion detection on my camera at all!

The battery with which this camera is equipped "dies" very quickly. After 3 months it doesn't work anymore, or maybe it only works for 5 minutes. I bought 3 SQ11 cameras and encountered this problem in all 3. Motion detection does not work behind a display case and. . . the battery does not last more than 2-3 months.

[@haroldgar12]

my motion detection is kinda funky. I was able to work it twice only and the rest of the time i can't. When I hit the mode button I wait for the lights to start blinking. After it finishes blinking , I see it blink again which means its filming. I don't have anything in from that will be detected by the motion detection. why is it automatically recording as soon as it stop blinking 4 times???Like I said before, I was able to make it work twice, but thats it. The other 50 times I tried, it just started recording.
