Nobody suspects a phone charger. They’ve become so commonplace that they seem to hide in plain sight. That’s why they’re a perfect disguise for a hidden camera. Look, we’re not condoning snooping on anyone, but if you’re going to deploy some digital security for your home or business, you might as well be discreet. And you can’t get more discreet than a USB Wall Charger Hidden Camera. This sneaky little gadget is even on sale for 61% off the usual price.

The LizaCam USB Wall Charger plugs into any standard two-prong outlet and charges your USB-powered devices, just like a real USB charger — because that’s what it is, of course (wink, wink). There’s certainly no secret functionality, like a camera that records high-def video and audio, directly to a microSD Card. And that non-existent camera surely couldn’t detect motion, nor could it be controlled with an easy-to-use smartphone app (iOS or Android). 

Obviously, you were fooled by our cunning misdirection, but it’s time to get serious about your security. If your space needs around-the-clock coverage and you want to have around-the-clock access to it, upgrade to the WiFi Hidden Camera Wall Charger.

Just like its sibling, it’s an HD camera disguised as a charger but enhanced with night vision and WiFi capabilities. That means photos and live video can be captured any time of day and viewed from any place — as long as you have your mobile device and its compatible app at the ready.

Whether you’re casually dabbling in home security, or going deep, these cameras can help. The standard USB Charger Cam is available for $49.99, while its upgraded version can be had for $57.99.
