Quick Set Up Guide
Xtreme Life DVR can be set up in 5 simple steps.
It helps to have your TV user's manual nearby since you may need to change video input on the TV used for initial set-up.
1. Take the unit from box and ensure you have received all included items.
2. Open the device to insert the memory card into the memory card slot and connect the battery, turning it on after the connection is made.
3. To confirm the device is ready, connect the provided video cable from the unit to your TV video input and create motion in front of the camera to see a live video feed and make a sample recording.
4. Your device is now ready to be placed in the area of desired surveillance.
5. Default recording setting is PIR detection. Once the power is turned on and the device recognizes the memory card, the DVR will begin to record based on PIR detection(see note below).
Special Note about PIR (Passive Infrared) Technology:
Each Xtreme Life™ DVR has a built in PIR sensor that detects levels of infrared radiation, the use of which makes the battery life so long. Everything emits some level of radiation. The hotter an object is the more radiation it emits. Changes in radiation levels are considered as motion by the DVR, which will then turn on and begin to record. The PIR sensor requires very little power, so the DVR will be off even though the PIR sensor is still detecting radiation. When the PIR detects a change in radiation, the DVR will turn on and begin to record. The DVR takes approximately 3 seconds to turn on and start recording.

Every semester of every year you can read hundreds of reports where a woman was physically assaulted on campus. While colleges and universities have tried to step up security patrols, especially at night, reports of attacks and attempted rape continue to persist. While there are precautions a woman can take to lessen the chances of becoming a victim, one of the best weapons she can have at her disposal when confronted in a threatening situation is a shot of pepper spray. A less than $20, the MACE Keyguard Pepper Spray is compact, convenient, and has a key ring that easily attaches to your house, dorm room, car, and other keys you carry. Be alert, be cautious, and be prepared.

Over the past several weeks we've received an unusually high number of calls and emails from people having questions and seeking advice regarding our line of security cameras and hidden nanny cams, wanting to know which one would work best for them in solving their particular need. This month I would like to address some of those questions.
By far, questions about choosing the right hidden camera come up the most. Each customer has their own need for wanting to monitor a certain area of the house, and each area presents its own special set of circumstances. One of the first things people look at when browsing the images under “Hidden Cameras” or “Nanny Cams” is which one would best fit into the area or room intended? Hidden cameras can be made into just about any “every day” object imaginable, and we have over 100 such cameras to choose from. One of the things I encounter most, though, is people who start second-guessing themselves on a model. By that I mean, once they know where the lens is on a disguised camera and they go to place it in a room, they feel others will be drawn to it immediately and realize that it's in fact a hidden camera. This is seldom the case. People, for the most part, are not observant. Question 10 people what they saw at the scene of an accident, and you'll get 10 different answers. One illustration I give out is magic. Ever been left wondering after watching David Copperfield? Many years ago when I began practicing magic as a hobby and doing some local shows, my main concern after learning a new trick was that my audience would see exactly how I did it. Of course this is where practice comes in, but once I had all the moves down pat I would fret unnecessarily that the audience would follow those moves exactly and hence know how the trick was done. Because I knew, I gave undue credit to the audience for knowing too, and the simpler the trick was, the simpler it had to be for the audience to see through it. Nothing was farther from the truth, and in fact the simpler the trick the more amazed was the reaction. I was over-thinking my act. Likewise, people are not going to recognize a hidden camera because they're not expecting one; just as an audience isn't expecting you to pull out the Ace of Spades from their shirt pocket at the conclusion of the trick. Most people will hardly give a second glance to a new object placed in a room, even a clock radio that you've placed on the bedside table. How many of you became extremely curious when your parents put up a new smoke detector in a room, or added a new book to the bookshelf, or plugged an outlet into the wall, or hung up a new mirror? Not many I would imagine. Don't over-think the camera. Only you will know what it really is.
There are three basic types of cameras;wired, wireless, and Stealth Cams (or those with built-in DVRs).
Teddy Bear Nanny Cam (Stealth Cam)
Mini PTZ Wifi Security Cam
Exit Sign Hidden Camera (wired)
CCD Security Camera (wireless)
Wired cameras are mostly seen in security cameras, especially in businesses and commercial use buildings, although we do carry wired hidden cameras as well. As the name implies, these cameras require cable connections running back to your recording device, such as a TV, VCR, DVR or PC. Security cameras also come in different styles as well, including domes, bullets, infrared and hidden, and can be used both inside and outdoors. Security cameras tend to have a fixed 4mm lens that can detect facial features out to 90 feet, and some even have pan/tilt and zoom features. And with wired cameras, there is no chance of outside interference hindering the picture quality, as can sometimes occur with wireless.
Wireless cameras send a video signal to a receiver which is connected to the recording device. The advantage with wireless is that it eliminates the need for cables, but is susceptible to interference (like from a cordless phone that's placed too close and if that phone happens to be on the same 2.4GHz frequency as the camera.) 2.4GHZ is the standard frequency at which data and video is transmitted. The distance at which a wireless camera can operate will vary slightly between cameras, but will usually transmit between 700 and 1000 feet back to the receiver. It has also been asked if the wireless signal can transmit through walls and cement block, and the answer is, yes, providing there isn't too much metal within. Wireless cameras themselves can be powered either by battery or AC. In models such as alarm clock radio hidden cameras which are plugged in, the AC powers both the functioning clock as well as the camera. In the mini wireless systems – those that use a board camera or button camera the size of a dime, they can be operated both ways. The battery option here is usually a 9-volt, but the battery life is only about 5 hours. Some wired and wireless camera set-ups also come with software that provides remote viewing capabilities. These become IP cameras, which allow you to log into the Internet from anywhere in the world and see exactly what the camera is seeing in real time. This not only lets you keep an eye on your house while on vacation, but also an eye on the Nanny when you're at work.
The last types are the Stealth Cams with a built-in DVR that captures all the recording. They are the easiest to use, and the most popular choice for a hidden camera. Most Stealth Cams are plug & play, while others operate on an internal rechargeable battery, where often times recharging is done by connecting the camera to the computer via a USB cable. These are the perfect all-in-one cameras. The internal DVRs are simply SD cards; the same SD cards you use in your digital cameras and video camcorders. This eliminates the need for cables, transmitters, receivers, and hookups to monitors. When you're ready to view the video, simply connect the camera to the PC by the USB cable. You can also remove the SD card and either insert it into the SD slot on your PC (if you have one), or into a card reader. Most cameras will also allow you to set film speed, schedule your recording time, and have a motion activation feature which will trigger the camera to come on only when its sensors have picked up motion in the room. Many of these cameras come with a 4GB or 8Gb card, but will take up to a 32GB SD card for even longer recording time. Depending on the speed and resolution you choose, you can record hundreds of hours on one card. Many also offer an overwrite feature so that once the memory has been filled, recording will continue from the beginning of the SD card again.
Recently, technology has tweaked these last two types a bit more. New to our hidden camera lineup this month are 7 new wireless IP cameras. What makes these wireless cameras different is that the receiver is completely standalone. It doesn't require a computer! The IP receiver plugs directly into your wireless router, so there is no software or program to worry about. Not only can you stream your video over the Internet to view anywhere in the world, but each receiver also has a built-in DVR so that you can record directly onto your own SD card. It doesn't get any simpler than that! Two other new wireless models we've added now contain their own Wi-Fi transmitters. This allows you to transmit the camera's video signal directly through your existing Internet connection for remote recording or viewing from virtually anywhere. It's the perfect answer to any of your hidden camera or baby monitoring needs.
Clock Radio Hidden Camera (Wi-Fi)
One last note about choosing the right camera for you. If the room where the camera is placed will have varying degrees of light, then you'll have to select a camera whose lens can adapt to those light conditions. Color video needs to have adequate lighting conditions, so is best recorded during daytime hours or in a well lit room. If the room well be semi-dark, then you'll need to record in black & white with a lens that will adjust for low-light conditions. Low-light means there is some illumination, if only from a night light or the light cast from a TV screen. Camera specifications give a LUX rating, which is the amount of light needed for the camera to see. If the LUX rating is .003, then the camera will see and record in low-light conditions. Some camera are offered in color or B&W models, while others have the ability to record in color and automatically switch to B&W when the lighting conditions change. For night time recording or when wanting to record in total darkness, then you will need an IR camera built for that intended purpose. The IR (or infrared) lens is designed to see and record images in total darkness. To see these very special cameras in action, click here on our Nitespy Clock Radio DVR and scroll down to watch the video.

Oscar winner NICOLE KIDMAN is trying to raise awareness of violence against women. The actress, who is the goodwill ambassador for the United Nations Development Fund for Women (UNIFEM) - helped launch the Say No to Violence against Women campaign. She says, "One in three women will encounter violence in some way, shape or form against them in their lifetime. So much of it is shrouded in silence. What we are trying to do is say this is something that needs to be addressed.
A lot of it is taking away the stigma, creating awareness and not making it a silent pandemic. I want to encourage people of all nations to unite behind our call to end violence against women." Despite the advances of our society and the changing view we take of women's rights, abuse continues to be a huge problem in this country, as it does in India, South Africa, Pakistan and Asia.
In 2009, there were over 270,000 reported cases of rape or sexual assault against women in the U.S. Unlike our stereotype image of these victims, abuse against women happens to the wealthy, educated, and even soccer moms. In the United States, every twelve to eight seconds a woman is beaten by a man; four women each day are reported beaten to death; 1 in 6 women will be sexually assulted in their lifetime; and college-age women are 4 times more likely to be sexually assulted than any other demographic. Violence against women knows nothing about socio-economic, educational, racial or religious boundaries. While we have certainly made great strides towards a more equitable, just society for everyone, we still have a long way to go before we can say we have truly overcome our violent behavior.
So, what measures can be taken to reduce these numbers? If we remember our medieval history of the world, there were valiant knights who saved damsels in distress. Remember King Arthur and his Knights of the Round Table? In today's world a woman gets molested and harassed domestically as well as in the workplace, and these issues go without any notice. Abuse against women even takes place right in public places. We feel sorry for the poor lady, but we just go on with our lives. Where have all those knights gone?
Over the past few years, as various support groups for battered and abused women have grown, so, too, have self-defense classes for women. Women today are choosing to fight back! In nearly every community you can now find instructional training for women that promotes security, safety, and self confidence from knowing how to defend yourself from the threat of attack. But what if you're a Senior living alone, or weigh all of 98 pounds soaking wet? There are several personal security alarms and non-lethal personal protection devices on the market today that can offer you that same level of safety and security, while providing you the self defense weapon that will turn the table against any attacker. Do not become another statistic! Below, are some of the items available that you can carry with you to turn the odds in your favor.
Personal Alarms – These are small devices that can fit easily on a keychain so they are always at your fingertips. They produce a loud 130 db screeching alarm that immediately draws the attention of any passerby. When some unsavory character approaches you, simply press the button and the alarm sounds. They come in various decibel levels and can prove to be the first line of defense against an attack. The last thing most assailants want is to draw attention to themselves. These handy alarms do just that. They're great when you're alone, convenient to carry when you're out and about, and portable enough to pack in a suitcase.
Pepper Spray – Pepper Spray comes in many shapes and sizes. The smallest are the size of a tube of lipstick and the largest are about the size of a small fire extinguisher. There are models designed for joggers; others designed to attach to the visor of your car; models that attach to your keyring; and sprays that are cleverly concealed in small everyday objects. Designed to temporarily disable your attacker, they can shoot as far as 12 feet, and when shot into the face of the perpetrator will cause pain and swelling in the eyes and throat. Made from a formula of 10% Oleoresin Capsicum with 2 million Scoville Heat Units, a direct shot will leave your attacker temporarily blinded and gasping for air, giving you time to get to safety. Many pepper sprays are also include a dye that leaves its mark on the attacker, giving the police an easy method to identify them. Pepper sprays are also useful on aggressive animals. One shot in the face will turn the most ferocious dog whimpering off in the other direction.
StunGuns – Stun Guns also come in all shapes and sizes. There are standard models designed to intimidate on sight and more subtle models disguised as cell phones. They all come with a safety to prevent accidental discharge and most of the newer models have an alarm that sounds if for some reason you lose control of the device. Stun guns are an aggressive way to stop any attack. They disrupt the flow of electricity in the body leaving the assailant disabled and lying on the ground, while you run to safety. Though the effects are temporary, they will provide you with more than enough time to escape and find help. Because of their design, the disabling effect of the stun gun can't be transferred from one person to another, even if your assailant is touching you. Along with a built in alarm most models also come with a flashlight. Using the flashlight on your way to the car keeps the stun gun in your hand when you need it most.
Tasers – Taser devices are commonly seen on TV or in the news where a police officer has to subdue someone who is not complying with verbal commands. The subject is often seen posing a danger to himself, or others, and has to be incapacitated for the safety of the officers or of others in the vicinity. Taser devices have been shown to be extremely effective in taking down even the most aggressive person. The Advanced Taser brand non-lethal weapon is a conducted energy weapon that utilizes compressed nitrogen to shoot two small probes up to 15 feet. These probes are connected to the weapon by high-voltage insulated wire. When the probes make contact with the target, the weapon transmits powerful electrical pulses along the wires and into the body of the target, through up to two inches of clothing. The new Taser series has an almost 100% effectiveness rating.
No matter your choice, arming yourself against personal attack is a fundamental right in our free society. You have the right to feel safe. You have the right to protect yourself. And you have the responsibility to do the same for your family. Personal safety technology is a great solution to non-lethal defense. Feel Safe Again!

The best way to prevent a child from drowning is to be vigilant. But can you be vigilant 100% of the time? Last year more than 300 children in the U.S. under the age of 5 drowned in backyard swimming pools. Six-hundred more between the ages of 6 and 14 also died due to accidental drowning. There are times when even the best parents take their eyes off their children for a minute or two. At any moment, without any warning, a tragedy can occur. Most pool accidents happen in less than five minutes; about the time it takes to grab a sandwich or a cold bottle of soda. But there are tips and tools that can help reduce water mishaps and promote pool safety. Pool safety alarms are one item that every pool owner should
have. The added protection they provide could keep your children from becoming another statistic.
The Pool Alarm is an electronic monitoring system that automatically sounds an alarm when children or pets fall into your unsupervised pool. It's portable, self-contained, and lightweight. The unit is simple to operate. Entry into the pool will be detected by the pool alarm's electronic sensor, triggering a loud pulsating alarm at the unit and inside your house from the remote receiver.
Installation of the pool alarm is easy. It sits on the pool deck as in the picture. After you install the alarm, it can't be deactivated. It is always in the alarm ready mode until you put it in sleep mode. If someone who does not know how to put the pool alarm in sleep mode attempts to remove the alarm, it will sound an alarm. The pool alarm comes with a remote receiver which can be mounted in your house up to 200 feet from the main unit. It also comes with a 12 volt power supply, and the unit itself uses one 9-volt battery, which should last approximately one year.
Installing a pool alarm is only one safety measure, though, when it comes to safe-guarding your children around the backyard pool. You need to be aware of the other nationally recognized water safety steps to ensure your children, or any child who enters your pool area, is protected as much as possible. Review these tips below and learn them. Don't let your child become another statistic. Practice pool safety.
Step 1. For starters, never allow children to swim without adult supervision, even if they know how to swim. And always keep children under five within your reach while at the pool.
Step 2. Enclose the pool with a fence that is at least five feet high. Keep the fence clear of chairs or other objects that children can use to climb over the fence. Make sure the gate stays locked and closes automatically.
Step 3. Always keep a life saving ring near the pool. Don't use inflatable swimming aids as a substitute for adult supervision or approved life vests. They give children and parents a false sense of security.
Step 4. When you are at the pool, be sure to keep a cell phone or a home phone line with you. You would never want to have to leave the pool area to use the phone. In the short amount of time that you are gone, a child can get injured or drown.
Step 5. Install pool security devices like infrared motion detectors, underwater wave sensors, and pool alarms that will alert you if someone is in the pool.
Step 6. When you're not using it, keep the pool completely covered. Never partially open the pool cover.
Step 7. Finally, take the time to learn CPR. Utilizing these guidelines will help you keep your pool a fun, safe area.
