    EyeSpyPro Swims With A Shark

    Tuesday, April 2nd, 2013

    Recently, I had a chance to swim with a real live shark at Infusioncon 2013, the annual small business success seminar. Daymond John was the keynote speaker, and man, what a great story he has. While working at Red Lobster, he became involved with the emerging Hip-Hop movement as a roadie and sandwich hustler, who one day realized this was his life. He started selling his own products, as it was cheaper than buying them, people liked them, and he never looked back.

    He got his first large order, and to pay for it, his mother mortgaged their house, sold all furniture to put in industrial sewing machines, and started his brand FuBu out of his apartment.

    The best part was when he said at first, he was going to call it BuFu, By Us, For Us, though when it was revealed that is a term a gay man might use, he quickly changed it to FuBu… Anyway, since I knew he would be here, I had his book, The Brand Within, and was right at the front of the line for my chance to get my picture taken. I was so excited, as I love to meet the celebrities that speak at the events I attend.

    So I get up there and hand my phone to one of the Infusionsoft staff and let her capture the moment. I go and check the photo, and here it is…

    Daymond John Blurry
    What the H???

    Who taught this girl how to take a pic? That was the worst picture I had ever saw. I was starting to get upset, and tried to get another picture, so I got back in line and right in front of me they cut it off, no more pictures, the shark has to swim away. I asked, begged, and pleaded with some big guys blocking my access to getting my prized picture, and they would not budge. No matter how much I asked, it was a big fat NO, go away!

    Saddened, I sulked off, dissipating any madness, and realizing my dream of getting a clear picture with a live Shark was over.

    However, I remembered I saw a professional photographer right next to the girl who took the pic, and I tried to find him. For the next two days, he was as elusive as a Sasquatch in Phoenix, i just could not find the person who took the pic. I contacted Infusionsoft, and found my account rep, and asked him, where are the pictures?

    He did some work, and got me in touch with Adam at Acme Photography, a commercial photographer in Phoenix who recorded the event. We dug a little, and we found the link to all the Daymond John book signing pictures here from Infusioncon 2013.

    And ladies and gents, here is EyeSpyPro meeting a real live shark, in living color;

    Daymond John and Chris Winkler
    Beautiful!

    The show was incredible, over 2000 small business owners there to learn how we too can grow to a $300MM+++ company. Thanks to everyone for such a great event, and I look forward to next year downtown Phoenix, my old stomping grounds in the mid to late 80′s…

    Pick The Name For EyeSpyPro’s New Gadget Mascot

    Friday, July 6th, 2012

    We were able to work out the problems with getting a survey up & running so you can finally vote for the new EyeSpyPro Gadget Spokesman’s name.

    Some of our clients actually asked if this new dwebe was going to replace me. HAH! Never, this place can’t run without me, and it’s actually me that is hiring him to handle some of the load. At first I laughed at his chrome dome, however, with male pattern baldness effecting many of us guys, who throw in the towel, and just say hell with it, “I’ll shave it all off!”, well, its just a sign of the times. Though I’ll run another survey later to see if you want him to grow back his fro.

    So Click This Link to vote for the EyeSpyPro Gadget Spokesman’s name.

    Later…

    PI Agent Software Continues To Rip Off Their Customers

    Tuesday, June 26th, 2012

    We warned you that we quit being a distributor for PI Agent software because they ripped us off.  PI Agent software has crappy software full of bugs, and when one of our customers asked for a refund, we refuned their money, and asked PI Agent software for a refund. They ingnored us, and when we filed a complaint with Paypal, even Paypal denied our claim!

    Now PI Agent software continues to rip off another private investigator, even after I warned them not to do business with PI Agent software.

    Here is their email;

    Chris…. boy, I should have taken your advice!  I spent $239.00 on this PI-Agent software buying it directly from the company.  I asked them for a hard copy of the software.  They said it was shipped and they never shipped anything!  I emailed them and they continued to say it was shipped and I should get it shortly.  Then the response emails changed to “we have a downloadable version you can download”.  I insisted on the hardcopy telling them that I did not want a downloadable version.  They said “no problem, we have a hardcopy shipped to you”.  They lied.  They said that I could download the downloadable version and try it out while the hardcopy is enroute.  I did and the downloadable version is so full of glitches it freezes up my brand new desktop.  So I emailed them again and asked them where the hardcopy was.  They didn’t even address the hardcopy issue and wanted to know what the glitches were on the downloadable software was.  Then they stopped replying to my emails asking where “my shipped” hardcopy was.  So I filed a complaint with PayPal to hopefully get my money back.  They are disputing my request for a refund!  I should have listened to you!!

    Do NOT order any products from PI Agent software as you will get screwed!!!

    PI Agent Software Is A Ripoff And They Refuse To Support Their Product

    Tuesday, May 29th, 2012

    We were reselling the PI Agent software for about a year, and we had a client who had a problem with it, and no matter how many email or phone calls to the company, they refused to get in touch with the customer or  help them.

    Our client never was able to work out the problems and we were forced to refund their money. When we asked for a refund from PI Agent software multiple times, they refused to  reply to any email, so we filed a paypal dispute. Then they reply and the refund was not given, and we lost the money. We were ripped off by PI-Agent software.

    We sent 2 dozen emails asking for a refund and they ignored us. Buy their software at your own risk. You will not get replies to your problems. They do not answer their phone, they do not support their product, they do not reply to emails and they forced us to not sell their product.

    Buy their product at your own risk!

     

    Is the Bosch MIC Series 500 Professional Ruggedized 18x Zoom PTZ Camera The Cutest Video Camera In The World?

    Thursday, August 11th, 2011

    Is the Bosch MIC Series 500 Professional Ruggedized 18x Zoom PTZ Camera The Cutest Video Camera In The World?

    Bosch video security systems recently introduced their Bosch MIC Series 500 Professional Ruggedized 18x Zoom PTZ Camera, a small, very well priced PTZ camera that will operate underwater, and can spin 360 degrees all day long.

    We just won a contract with the Military for 4x Bosch MIC Series 500 PTZ cameras, as they needed to be able to work under water, and since they are Bosch, they are some of the best cameras on the market that have the ability to operate for years and years.

    Ideal applications are ports & harbors, industrial, public centers, public housing, shopping malls, airports, and anywhere you need a rugged camera that can operate day & night for years.

    Check out this video of the Bosch MIC Series 500 camera, and let us know if it’s the cutest CCTV camera in the world.

    Watch Your Nanny With The Vivotek IP8132 Mini Network Camera

    Thursday, May 26th, 2011

    If you want to watch your kids, elderly parents, or pets during the day, and you are on a budget, you are going to love this. Vivotek just introduced the Vivotek IP8132 1MP Mini Indoor Network Camera With H.264 Compression, which is a tiny 1 megapixel network camera that is perfect for watching what’s going on at your home when you are at work, or for watching what is going on at your office or work when you are not there.

    I read on a box of envelopes that value is where price and quality meet, and that is what you get with Vivotek IP cameras; high quality at an incredible price. And at $159.95, you can finally afford to watch your home with high quality cameras that deliver high quality video. No more fuzzy images where you can’t even make out who it is. A megapixel network camera can record crystal clear video for you to later review.

    And the great part is that all you need is either a fairly new PC to install the Vivotek capture software, or if you don’t have a PC, pick up a 4 camera Vivotek network video recorder, or a 8 channel Vivotek NVR that will play nice with your cameras.

    So you can put 2-4 of these puppies in side, or add a couple outdoor IR bullet IP cameras.

    Clear Glasses Wired Hidden Camera With No Noticeable Lens

    Wednesday, January 12th, 2011

    We finally found the ultra covert Clear Glasses Wired Hidden Camera, which is a hidden camera stuck inside the side of the frame, so you don’t look like some idiot wearing huge sun glasses with the camera right in the middle, above your nose.

    Clear Glasses Wired Hidden Camera

    This is a CCTV wired hidden camera that is just a camera. It has an output that plugs into any Pocket DVR that we have, like the small SD card recording 3 Hour HD Handheld Pocket DVR, or the more robust 1280 x 960 Law Enforcement Grade DVR With 60GB HD.

    Plug it in the DVR, and start recording clear video surveillance images. Perfect for Coppers, gum shoes, investigators, or seeing what your competitors are up to at the next trade show.

    Are You Breaking The Law By Recording Audio?

    Wednesday, September 1st, 2010

    We put up a couple blog posts last week that we felt many of our clients and newsletter subscribers could appreciate, though we forgot to put it on our Spy Gear Blog. Seems if you are recording hidden video with audio, or audio recordings of phone calls or private meeting in 12+ states where they prohibit the recording of any audio without the concent of both parties. Even though it’s legal in up to 38 states, it’s the 12 that make it illegal that will give you big problems, as the Federal law also makes it illegal.

    One of the blog posts is called "Death of the Spy Camera", and the other is "Soon Only Law Enforcement Can Buy Spy Cameras," and if you plan on recording any video with any of our spy cameras that also record audio, or you use a digital audio recorder, you might want to check up on your states laws, as the fines are large.

    The Reporters Committee for Freedom of the Press published this list of states and their telephone & audio recording laws. They have some great articles on their site & it’s worthy to book mark it. I checked California, and both parties need to be informed, so what about the secret recordings of Mel Gibson? They are illegal, and should have not been played on the air.

    And judges have ruled that recording the conversation, when an expectation of privacy can be expected, carry the same penalty as intercepting a phone call or a wire tap.

    FYI.

    Shoot Ultra Clear Surveillance Video With The HD Pocket DVR With Touch Screen

    Thursday, August 26th, 2010

    "Oh, My God!", I screamed in my best Moon Unit Zappa impersenation when I saw the sample video from the HD Pocket DVR With Touch Screen. If you have no clue as to what I am referring to, look up the Zappa song, "Valley Girl."

    Anyway, even with the distortion YouTube brings to any video, this sample was absolutely, positively, not questions about it, the clearest video we have ever seen from any Pocket DVR or Spy Camera, ever.

    Though who the heck am I to say that, besides being a Spy Camera Expert, with built in HD video cameras for eyes that record H.264 video at 1080p. You would think I was a cyborg Chameleon or something. You be the judge for yourself:

    There is also a demo of using the touch screens on the product page, so if you work in loss prevention, law enforcement, private investigations, I know you’re drool is already reaching the ground. For the rest of you, watching the video on the product page of them going through the videos made me realize that these little Pocket DVR’s are great 1 camera recording systems. They normally come with a cable that will allow you to hook up any type of CCCT camera you like to the DVR.

    So you can have a tiny, 1 camera, video recording station with you at all times. Set it up in a warehouse with the screw cover over the button cam, and it will appear to be a phillips head screw, not a camera. Hook up any of our wired hidden cameras, or wireless hidden cameras, and also dump the video into the Pocket DVR, and you have your recording of what the camera is seeing. Great if you need to move it around a factory or office, or for that matter, your home to watch what your teenagers or housekeeper is up to, or your better 1/2.

    They can also run off electricity, so you don’t have to worry about runnig out of battery if you are using it in an indoor application.

    There are so many uses for a pocket DVR, and if you need the very best recording quality you can get, the HD Pocket DVR With Touch Screen is it.

    XtremeLife Covert Black Box DVR Could Catch That Punk Messing With Your Ride

    Tuesday, August 24th, 2010

    We are finally able to offer you a do-it-yourself hidden camera kit with the XtremeLife Covert Black Box DVR With 1 Year Battery. This self contained DVR with long life battery is about the size of a deck of cards, and can last up to a year in stand-by mode! You get 20 hours of continious video, which is great for people who need something inside their car to catch the punk who has been damaging it.

    It comes with a waterproof camera, and a PIR or passive infrared sensor, which will only trip when a person comes in front of it, and won’t wake up when a flag or curtain is flapping in the breeze.


    XtremeLife Covert Black Box DVR With 1 Year Battery

    The camera is a tiny pinhole camera that can be put behind a little hole you make in anything, a wall, consumer item, or hamburger box. What we like about this set up is that it can be put anywhere you need for a very covert video set-up.

    While you can make your own hidden camera inside all sorts of things like any empty cardboard box of food or snacks, it already comes pre-made into 3 different hidden cameras with built-in DVR:

    So now we are finally getting one step closer to catching that punk messing with your ride…
