that blows.  do you think it is its fixable?

Probably. It got pulled out of the battery compartment side, and not the camera side. I just haven't opened it up yet to look. 

Last FB post I saw, he was dealing with the death of two relatives and a CSF leak.

UPDATE: So, I got ahold of Aaron. I found out that we have a common friend. Anyways, he said that he has been having trouble with the web site host and had the ordering turned off until they rebuild the site and add some suppressors and stuff.  Anyways  you need to contact him on Facebook if you did order anything and he will get it out to you.

Any others on here order anything and not get it?

Ordered from Aaron on 4/11, called late april and mid may, even had toyotatacomasr5 contact Aaron via facebook and in person, still nothing.

Very very sad, I really wanted this, have to call my CCard company to see what can be done.

I don't want to dance on your tragedy too much but I always tell people to don and doff their NODs while sitting "Indian Style", so if you dump them that they just fall in your lap. At the very least, I take a knee so they are not falling six feet.

I'm being completely ignored also. My unit was broken when it came, it had the cable that Aaron said was faulty/thin.

I had one email back stating he would replace it, and here we are, 10+ emails from me, 6+ months and nothing.

It's very poor customer service.

Just got one second hand. Can anyone give me instructions on how to use it?

You can buy a replacement battery and camera on Ebay Ebay Camera There are several sellers that have them at similar prices. I also saw one seller that was selling a 3d printed mount for the camera to make your own NV camera setup from scratch for cheap!

Here is what came with mine! Hope this helps.

Can I get a better link please?

Not sure what you need? The link works fine, but I'll just put it down so you can copy and paste it in your Browser.  

http://www.ebay.com/itm/2-4G-FULL-HD-1080P-DIY-Module-Spy-Hidden-Camera-Video-MINI-DV-DVR-Motion-Remote/282586057026?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649

On a further note, here's the link for the adapter.

I might add that while it shows it as white in the picture, it is actualy black.

My camera came today and I got it all put together. I bought one of the FPRS originals and really like it! The one I just put together works just as well, plus the battery can be disconnected making it easier to remove the NV only from your head mount. For the total $$.$$ involved, I had to try it!  

Brother you can't post a link to save your life lol. Strikeout. 0 for 3 lol.

I'm thinkingbyoure logged into eBay and that has something to do with it.

Hmmmm not sure what the link problem is as they work fine from my end and I use the same methods that always have for years...............


So do it the hard way then. Do a search on Ebay for a 'PVS 14 Recording Adapter and then a search for DIY Spy Camera Module.

Or item numbers 201995677514  & 282586057026

If those don't work, you're on your own I guess!  

I bought the adapter and two cameras. Cameras are what you expect for sub $20.  One camera died, but it's still cool. Anyone have the 3D plans for the adapter?

I bought one of the 3d Printed adapters off eBay, only thing I don't like is the fact that the only way to have the adapter affixed to a pvs-14 is to move the eye relief so it stays snug against the housing but so far in the position its in it is fine for me. I bought a camera off of eBay and amazon and the one of bay was dead out of the box with the camera only recording at a certain angle but the seller refunded me all my money and I got a free battery out of it I guess, the one I got off amazon worked fine. You do have to superglue the camera to the adapter, I put some Velcro on my PVS-14 and the recorder than had the battery Velcroed to my helmet. The placement of the camera seems like it might interfere with your vision but your eye seems to forget about it. I took it out with some friends one night with my new PVS-14 and it worked fine but I think the max file size for videos is 5 minutes but than it will start a new video after that 5 minutes and so on. The quality of the camera system is ok but if you have a lot of light coming off your NVG it will bloom a bit (such as using an IR light it will drown out what you are aiming at in the video but not with the users actual view) so when I filmed a couple friends shooting I turned down the gain a little on my unit and it worked fine. Here is the video I took a month back: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V55aa5KhP7s

Awesome, thanks!

It has to do with arfcom... ebay links don't work on this site anymore. If you copy the text for the link and paste it in your browser it will work.

Links worked for me. Ordered one of each and I'll see how it compares.

Thanks.

Between ARFCOMs crazyness and my idiotic iphone, the links weren't working. Searching The item # did the trick. Appreciate it.

Which camera on Amazon? Thanks.

Piggy backing on that question.... wouldn't it be best to get one that can accept the little SD memory cards and buy the largest card it'll handle?

they all accept a microSD card.  the internal software dictates that it records 2 or 5 minutes at a time.

i actually bought two of the spy cameras.  one died and i got a refund and the other one works just fine.  all the instructions are in broken english and sometimes the options don't work the best.  you get what you pay for.

This is the one I got https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01MDTGHB3 , I paid 25 for this one however this one looks to be OOS now, I would look around with one with the same body style and try and buy a Prime item as it will be a lot easier to replace or refund if it breaks (although the one i got off eBay for 20 the seller refunded me quickly on it). They all need to have a Micro SD card to use otherwise the unit wont record anything, I bought a 32gb card and just take the recordings and put them on my PC so I can edit or upload them, a 5 minute recording is about 500mb.

Thanks!

I picked up one of the latest gens with the very short ribbon cable.

The recorder works great and is easy to use the key as within most photography/videography you get the best results in the post editing and clean up.

Next time I go out and can get some good footage that is OK to release I'll do some post editing on it and give you guys a better example than this.
