If a dummy camera seems ineffective, the issue is often the position rather than the product itself. These models are designed for indoor and outdoor visual deterrence, so the visible impact depends on whether people can actually notice them from normal approach angles. fileciteturn0file0turn0file1
Review the position
- Stand where a visitor or passer-by would usually approach from. The expected result is that the camera is easy to spot. If it is hidden by a beam, plant, sign or overhang, move it to a more visible place.
- Check the height. The expected result is that the camera looks like a deliberate security device, not a decorative object. If it is mounted too low or too far in a corner, repositioning may improve the effect.
- Make sure the housing faces outward and is not angled away by a loose fitting. The expected result is a straight, obvious front-facing appearance. If the bracket cannot hold the angle, stop using the product until it can be secured.
- For 10.016.07, confirm the light is still visible and the batteries are fresh. The expected result is improved noticeability after battery replacement and better positioning.
If the camera still looks unsuitable in its current location, or the mounting point is not secure, stop using it and contact the retailer or store where it was purchased. fileciteturn0file1turn0file0
