Can I kill the "beep, beep" on this device without being connected to the App (subscription) that controls it.     (emporiumhut.net)

1. I don't want to take out a subscription for the device because I don't want all the fancy features (e.g. remote viewing).

2. The device provides basic home security without a subscription i.e. point in one direction and record to SD Card.

3. The only problem is the device beeps loudly every 10 seconds or so and if I could kill that noise I could use the device. My wife said if she heard the "beep, beep" once more she'd flush the device down the toilet.

Even if I could get into the App again (my account has been terminated after a trial free run), I'm still not sure if there is a setting that allowed me to turn off the beep.

What I'm going to try is to download the App again using a different WiFi and different name/email and try to get back in but, as I said, even if I do...will I be able to kill the beep?

Executive Summary

Good; and in the right hands (tech head) with a subscription for Cloud storage probably very good.

Operation

1. The device seems to work (motion detected/recorded to SD card) without a wireless connection but the wireless connection with the relevant app enables you to remotely swivel the camera head so it would be good for parents checking on kids etc but it seems the device's intruder-function is performed by having it pointed at the relevant area e.g. doorway; put on the motion-detection setting; and for the image to be recorded to the card or Cloud (subscription).

2. No fees unless you buy Cloud storage. I've read that if you don't pay a subscription some of the features might not work e.g. remote swivel viewing.

3. I got the item to connect to a wireless set-up via a Tablet (Android) as I don't have a smart phone.

4. I've uploaded (daytime) images from the Card and they were very good but it was a pain checking 40 or so video clips so I hope there'll be fewer now that I've stopped messing about with it (movement detection).

Conclusion

Would I buy another one? Not sure.Doubt it because getting up on a step ladder to retrieve the card is a pain and getting the camera aimed at the right place e.g. door is a pain. For me, a battery operated trail-camera is probably all I need as I can point it any way I want.

I'm thinking of buying this "Light Bulb Security Camera"     (emporiumhut.net)

I don't own a smart-phone and don't particularly want one but I will buy one if it means I can use this device but apparently I can still use the device by installing a TF Card.

So...do you think I've got it clear what's involved:

1. I use the device with a TF card purchased with the item.
2. I buy a TF adapter that enables me to transfer data on the TF card to my desktop PC via a USB cable.

Thanks
