Ebay 808 Keychain Camera

Post by Rocket_Scientist »

There seem to be two price levels of cameras: $6 and $35.

These things change month to month, but has anybody had good luck with a lower end ebay house?


I bought 3 for $21 last year, and I was impressed. Unfortunately, I lost them in a move.

I love them! I don't know what exact models I purchased but I've had great success with them, though a few 'lawn dart' landings move the lens around a bit.

I haven't mounted these yet, but I've ground tested them and they are great. They have replaceable battery and lens modules. A good value for the price:

The picture quality with these was acceptable, but not great:

Good luck!

I'd rather go with the Y2000/Y3000 spy cam. They may be difficult to mount, but it has;
-No timestamp
-Good quality vid
-Less size than the 808.

I recommend the Y2000 instead.
