THANK YOU FOR PURCHASING THE USB POWER PRO BANK HIDDEN CAMERA

Please read this manual before operating the USB power pro bank hidden camera and keep it handy.

The HC Power Bank Pro looks and operates exactly like a normal portable battery pack. These devices are normally used for backup or extra power for cell phones and other portable electronics. As phones get more and more powerful, they consume more and more battery life, making a backup charger not only sensible but almost necessary. The HC Power Bank Pro will fit in perfectly with any other portable electronics, making any recordings completely under the radar while it charges your device at the same time! This power bank needs no cables or batteries, making perfect for the covert operative on the go. It doesn't need to be plugged in or require a remote. Recording is as simple as a touch of the button.

Your purchase should include: 1 x USB Power Pro Bank Hidden Camera 1 x USB Cable 1 x Combo Charging Cable 1 x Carrying Case 2 x Back Plates 1 x Instruction Booklet
