Why Made In Tennessee Matters For Hidden Cameras

For many years open tooling has been the bane of companies attempting to manufacture goods in Asia. Bait and switch or smoke and mirrors, call it what you want, but open tooling means that two devices may look the same on the outside but are actually different on the inside. In some of China’s tooling shops, components are purchased and assembled without regard to quality standards. Malfunctions, limited performance, and lack of compatibility with add-ons products may all be a result of slip-shod tooling.

While developing the SleuthGear® line of hidden cameras we encountered the frustration of inconsistent quality and duplicate poor performance products too many times. So we decided to assemble our devices at our warehouse in Nashville, Tennessee. One hundred percent of our SleuthGear® products are quality tested, including the Zone Shield®, Xtreme Life™, and Recluse® line. We are the only manufacturer in the industry making trips to China to visit vendors where we test for quality. You may notice that while searching online for hidden cameras, identical products from various vendors can have significant price differences. Most likely, the least expensive device is the result of open tooling…cheaper assembly and less attention to detail.

A very popular surveillance devices that is rampant on Chinese-import sites such as Amazon is a Clock Radio Hidden Cam. But a cheap version could have a hidden camera that is not centered correctly resulting in a smaller field of view and consequently, you risk not capturing enough important footage. Some of these imported wireless cameras also have deficient transmitting ability resulting in footage with static interference.

The video below shows actual video footage examples taken from competing Chinese imported cameras. At the end you see how their footage compares to SleuthGear's hidden camera footage. Now which one of these cameras do you want watching your babysitter?
