Surveillance camera hidden in a wallwart

Trust nothing, thieves. Even the potted plants and teddy bears are against you. Such concealments lack one thing, though, which makes long-term surveillance a chore: power. What better, then than a camera hidden in a wall-wart power adapter?

With a microSD slot and a 2GB card, the fake will record up to 66 hours at a time. The resolution, unfortunately, is very low: 176×144 at 15 fps. For fire ‘n’ forget simplicity, however, it might be a winner–if you know who the intruder is, that’s surely good enough evidence to prove their presence, even if you’d never ID some random burglar at that woeful, Atari 2600-like resolution.
