    Thinking of obtaining an SQ13 camera to review which does have wifi/phone connection capabilities. What do you think?

    • @Perry_305
      @Perry_305 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Is there an app or program needed? I want to set up the cameras in my condo but I want to set them up so they are constantly charging and recording via motion detection

    • @mcphoney
      @mcphoney  9 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Not for the Sq11. It’s just a little camera that can record about an hour or so unless you hook it up to a power pack then you will get longer. But you still wouldn’t know what you had recorded until you uploaded the footage from the memory card.

    • @simarsingh2935
      @simarsingh2935 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I just want to know many hours it can regularly record with 32GB se card at normal video quality ??
      Do i need to connect to laptop to delete recordings ??
      I’ve never used any security cameras ever,I live in small 1br basement.But bow i need one and for cheaper price possible.

    • @TKN204
      @TKN204 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Yeah that would be awesome. Especially if the camera is always on power 🔋 without the neeed of a powerbank.

    • @mcphoney
      @mcphoney  2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Hi there, apologies for the late reply! So 32GB would get you a lot of footage depending on how you have the camera set up of course. For example in this video I set up the camera on night vision and motion detection mode, powered with a 5000mah power bank and a 32gb memory card.
      The power bank/camera would last around 15hours from what I remember, depending on how much motion was detected. As for the memory card, you should get a least a good week out of that amount of space if not more. Again however depending on how you have the camera set up.
      The recordings I think just get recorded over once the memory card is full I think. If you wish to view any of the video or pictures then you would need to connect either the camera or the memory card to a computer or laptop. Hope that all makes sense!
      Personally I would say If you are planning on using this for a security camera, it maybe better to invest in something else. Just for peace of mind!

    This is the best explanation ever. Made setting up very easy. Got it to see how my son uses the ATV, make sure he doesn't go over the speed limit. Especially when it's muddy or dry out. Don't want him dusting out people who are walking. Or splash them. 😅. Can you get the 2 in 1 wireless dog fence & training collar next and explain how to set it up? 😄 just a thought. Thanks for your very helpful video on the cam.

  • @kevinmoore8780

    Thank you for the review as you gave this inexpensive camera a very good run through of its features. At one point you wondered if you were being overly critical and I'd say "yes". Depending where you buy this camera, you can get it in the $10 range. So discussing image stabilization or web connectivity seems a little unnecessary. This is a camera for just playing around. I bought some for placing on the ground and trying to capture mice or shrews. It would also be an OK camera to place on a shelf if you wanted to see if anyone was entering your house, office or work cubicle. Or where in the house the dog wandered when you weren't home. I have 4 and have not used them for awhile but your video, even though a year old, has encouraged me to dig them out and use them again. Thank you again.

    Thanks for sharing this review. This is the best explanation I could find ! I bought it to mount in a open model railway wagon to film some action on my layout. It's charging now via the USB on my laptop. Takes a year indeed ! I'll take some shots and will try to load the video on my Linux pc. Hope that works !! For the price ( Action ) one can't go wrong to have some fun. Cheers, Filip

    i want to use this for airsoft, when you say it supports up to 32gb, does that mean that ONLY 32gb cards can be put in/thats the max filesize it can record? i found a tf card that is 128gb that has the exact same size as a 32 gb card and want to double check before i buy it

    • @mcphoney
      @mcphoney  8 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      So basically it can take any micro SD card up to a maximum size of 32gb. Which means unfortunately your 128gb would not be compatible. But have a little look around, I’m sure there must be similar ones that support 128gb! 💪

  • @onward6656

    How long will the battery last in motion detection instead of 1,5 hour of continuous recording? Ofcourse this depends on how often it has to record but could you give an estimate?

    • @mcphoney
      @mcphoney  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hmm that’s a tough one but I wouldn’t say long. I think I got around 90minutes of continuous recording so on motion detection you could get a good few hours me thinks!
      I’ve been hooking it up to a power bank which makes it last for well over 8hrs (again depending on how much motion is picked up of course!)

    Hi - good Video. If you use motion detection - it starts, when motion is deteced. does video recording stop, when there is no longer motion deteced?

    • @mcphoney
      @mcphoney  4 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Basically it will record for about a minute once motion is detected and then stop recording automatically.
      If it detects motion again straight away then it will record for another minute etc!
      Hope that helps! 💪

    • @mcphoney
      @mcphoney  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      So basically the camera will record when motion is detected for about a minute or until the motion stops. Then when more motion is detected it starts recording again and so fourth... Hope that makes sense!

      Hmm it sounds if you have two of them that won’t work then they could be actual faulty ones and not your good self.
      If you don’t mind me asking, can you get a normal video/picture to work? And if so what aspect ratio is it? If it’s 4:3 and NOT 16:9 then I suspect it could be the “knock off” versions that unfortunately are in the market. (I ended up with one)

    If you use it connected to the outlet instead of PC will the battery dry off ? Or it will keep working for a longer period ?

      @mcphoney  2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      It does keep working until whatever power it is being connected to runs out. For example I used a power bank for the overnight/motion detection shots and it would work until the powerbank was dead. Hope that makes sense! 👌

    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... ??

    • @mcphoney
      @mcphoney  2 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      I’ll be honest it could be one of the “older/not so good” versions. That’s what mine was at the start of the video so had to order another!
      It seemed to come on and work but then stop.
      One way you can tell is if the video is in a 16:9 or 4:3 format.
      If it is 4:3 then it’s the older/dodgy model.
      Hopefully either way you can send it back for a replacement?

      @KStarDid So I got my second one from aliexpress but paid a bit more for it. However I can’t seem to find the store any more. However this one seems real to me after reading the reviews and seeing some pictures… www.aliexpress.com/item/1005004806120642.html?spm=a2g0n.productlist.0.0.66fc6b846l45vo&browser_id=a166759dfb8f472280e01e3e5d62b9e9&aff_platform=msite&m_page_id=ialhqnbxscavrssf18e2a248613184f54be914a3bf&gclid=&pdp_npi=4%40dis%21GBP%218.29%218.29%21%21%2174.18%2174.18%21%40210387a117101040204862100e9f26%2112000037970755171%21sea%21UK%212092747780%21&algo_pvid=447e799b-4f4b-4654-a234-8db17c25a301&_universallink=1&m_page_id=ialhqnbxscavrssf18e2a248613184f54be914a3bf
      But if unsure again just check out how many have been sold with how many reviews. Eg.5000 sold from the seller but with only a 2star review then avoid. But 300 sold with 4.5 star review then that seems quite legit!

      Look in the card slot, you will see pins there. Insert the card so that the pins in the slot match the pins on the card. In practice, the pins on the card should face the lens. Don't push the card too deep, it should be flush with the casing.

    I'm confused about getting 1080p mode because you said press mode button for 1080p mode, and then also for camera mode, it only goes to camera mode... I get it's a simple camera but man does it suck when 1 button is designed to do so many different things when they could easily just add 1 more button

    • @mcphoney
      @mcphoney  16 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      Oh yes dont worry,, Im totally with you in regards to the lack of buttons and complexity of using it. I still have to look back on this video when I want to set up the motion detection! Anyhow just to answer your question, to get to 1080p mode, Press the power button to turn the camera on. When it comes on it is in 720p mode. Then press the M (mode) button once to switch to 1080p mode. Then to start recording just press the power button once. And to stop recording just press the power button once again.
      On a side note, if your camera isnt doing anything or switching to 1080p mode there is the possibility that it could be once of the "fake" ones that have flooded the market. (The first one in this video turned out to be a "dodgy" one. The way to double check is check how any recordings are made. If they are in 16:9 (widescreen) then you have a good one. If it records in 4;3 (square) then it could be a fake one.
      Another way to check is if it records in Night Vision mode. If no infrared lights come on when in night vision mode, then again Im afraid its a "fake one" with plastic made to look like LEDs.
      Anyhow, hopefully you have a good/real one and can now get to 1080p mode! 👍

      Sorry to hear that @m00dmvzik It would appear that there are a few variations of the SQ11 around. Ones that produce far lower video quality with no night vision, even though it states that it has it, and ones that actually work. In my video at the start, that one appears to be one of the "fake" ones. Can you return yours for a refund or exchange???

      @mcphoney it was only $18. I don't really need a refund but I'm going to leave a review, lol.

      But still $18 is $18. Well at least make sure its a "BEWARE" review! Maybe they will offer you a replacement???
