Now you can deter robbery, theft, and vandalism without the high cost of a real security camera. When placed in your home or business, even the most sophisticated criminals will think the premise is guarded by a high-tech surveillance system and go in search of an easier target. In fact, this is an actual surveillance camera that has been modified into a "dummy" or fake security camera. This unit does contain a flashing light.  The camera features authentic video cable and a fully adjustable  mounting bracket that will let you install the camera quickly and easily using the included screws.  This camera also features a zoom lens that will make criminals think you can zoom in on their faces for easier identification.  Dimensions of the camera(not including the mounting bracket)  are 6 and one-quarter  inches x 2 and three-eight inches x 2 inches.  The camera requires 2 AAA batteries that are not included.  For additional security see item  7417  Safety First Alarm Yard Sign.
