SOLAR CAMERA DECOY WITH FLASHING LED AND PIR MOTION SENSOR
The SOL1800S solar camera decoy is a practical solution for people who want to easily enhance the impression of surveillance over their property, building entrance, garage, lot, store, or warehouse. The model is designed to resemble a real CCTV surveillance camera, so its appearance alone can act as a deterrent and discourage unauthorized persons from approaching the protected area.
The housing faithfully replicates the appearance of a classic outdoor surveillance camera. The visible lens, simulated IR LEDs, and a flashing red LED make the dummy camera look authentic both during the day and after dark. This is particularly important in dimly lit areas, such as stairwells, basements, garages, driveways, store back rooms, or entrances to private property.
SOLAR PANEL – CONVENIENT OPERATION WITHOUT WIRING
The built-in solar panel enhances the convenience of using the dummy camera and reduces the need for frequent maintenance. Thanks to solar power, the dummy camera can operate without being connected to the electrical system, which greatly simplifies installation in places where running cables would be inconvenient, costly, or simply unnecessary.
The absence of cables also results in a more aesthetically pleasing appearance once installed. The dummy camera can be quickly mounted on a building wall, fence, facade, at a store entrance, above a garage door, or in any other highly visible location. The solar panel powers a built-in battery, which keeps the LED lit even after dark, provided there is sufficient sunlight during the day.
FLASHING LED AND SIMULATED IR LIGHT
One of the most important features enhancing the realism of the SOL1800S dummy is the flashing red LED. Its light catches the eye and suggests that the device is operational, which can give a potential intruder the impression that the area is being monitored. Additionally, the simulated infrared (IR) LEDs make the dummy resemble a camera equipped with night vision.
This solution works particularly well after dark and in darker areas, where the visible LED is more noticeable. A dummy camera with an LED can therefore be a good deterrent at the entrance to a home, at a gate, garage, gazebo, commercial premises, warehouse, or back room.
PIR MOTION SENSOR FOR GREATER REALISM
The SOL1800S model is equipped with a PIR motion sensor that reacts to movement within its detection field. The sensor’s stated range is approximately 6–8 meters, and its detection angle is approximately 120°. Thanks to this, the dummy can give the impression of a more advanced monitoring device, especially when installed in a location where people regularly pass by.
PIR sensors are commonly used in security devices, outdoor lights, and alarm systems, so their presence enhances the dummy’s credibility. Combined with a solar panel and a flashing LED, it creates an aesthetically pleasing, easy-to-install deterrent that requires no complicated setup.

FOR USE INSIDE AND OUTSIDE BUILDINGS
The SOL1800S solar dummy camera is suitable for both indoor and outdoor use. The IP66 rating ensures the housing’s enhanced resistance to dust and heavy exposure to water, allowing the device to be used outdoors—for example, at a building entrance, on a facade, near a garage, under a carport, by a gate, or on a property.
It’s a good choice wherever a visible deterrent is needed, but installing a full surveillance system isn’t necessary or would be too expensive. The dummy camera does not record video or transmit footage, so it serves as a visual security measure and a deterrent.
SOLAR CAMERA DUMMY AS A SIMPLE PREVENTIVE SECURITY MEASURE
An outdoor camera dummy with a solar panel is a cost-effective way to enhance the sense of security and clearly indicate that the area may be under surveillance. Its realistic appearance, flashing LED, simulated IR LEDs, PIR motion sensor, and durable IP66-rated housing make this product well-suited as a visible deterrent for homes, commercial premises, and farm buildings.
This solution is particularly recommended for locations where easy installation, a lack of wiring, low operating costs, and a realistic appearance resembling a real CCTV camera are important. The dummy camera does not replace a professional video surveillance system, but it can serve as a supplement to it or as a standalone deterrent in lower-risk locations.
- Realistic appearance of a CCTV surveillance camera – the dummy was designed to resemble a real outdoor camera as closely as possible
- Built-in solar panel – solar power reduces the need for maintenance and eliminates the need for wiring
- Flashing red LED – the visible LED enhances the dummy’s realism and suggests that the device is active. It is particularly noticeable after dark, in garages, basements, stairwells, and at building entrances
- Simulated IR LEDs – the dummy features elements resembling the infrared LEDs used in real night-vision cameras, which further enhances its authentic appearance
- 3 operating modes – the ability to choose one of three operating modes allows you to tailor the dummy’s operation to the installation location and the desired deterrent effect. This enables the device to operate more energy-efficiently, be more visible, or respond in a way adapted to the surrounding conditions
- PIR motion sensor – the built-in motion sensor detects activity near the device, which increases the realism of the dummy and makes it look like part of an active security system
- Detection range of approximately 6–8 meters – the PIR sensor detects motion in typical areas such as entrances, driveways, gates, side gates, garages, or store backrooms
- Wide detection angle of approximately 120° – the large motion detection area makes it easy to position the dummy so that it covers the most critical part of the protected space
- IP66 rating – the housing, with enhanced dust and water resistance, allows the dummy to be installed both indoors and outdoors
- Wireless installation – the dummy does not require connection to an electrical system or the running of cables, so its installation is quick, aesthetically pleasing, and possible in many different locations
- Easy mounting on a wall or facade – the kit includes mounting accessories that allow for quick installation of the device in the desired location
- For homes, stores, garages, yards, and warehouses—the dummy camera serves as a visible deterrent at entrances, gates, side gates, driveways, backyards, gazebos, commercial premises, and utility buildings
- Low operating costs—thanks to the solar panel and the fact that no wiring is required, the dummy camera is a cost-effective alternative or supplement to traditional surveillance systems
