When you saw the words “spy equipment,” you probably pictured James Bond with all the cool technical stuff from Q, right? But have you been in a spy shop recently, or looked at spy equipment online? The gadgets keep getting cooler, smaller, and more usable by everyday people.

For instance, when you think of spy equipment you probably think of cameras. Maybe you’re thinking of the little Minox cameras from the old movies, where the spy would click the two halves of the camera together to take pictures. Still pictures. Now you can get hidden video cameras that no one would suspect were cameras.

Whether you buy a camera disguised as a plant, a DVD player, an air freshener or a clock, you can buy great spy equipment, very affordably, to use around your home or office. Wouldn’t you like to know how the babysitter treats your kids, what your employees are doing when you’re not there, or whether your kids are really watching a movie with their dates?

Spy equipment doesn’t just mean hidden cameras, though. You can get listening devices that let you hear and record conversations covertly, which can be not only fun for a gag, but also useful in proving wrongdoing at home or work.

And one of the newest breakthroughs in spy equipment is GPS tracking. You probably have heard of this; they can even be used to locate stolen cars. You can now put GPS tracking on your car or in your teenager’s cell phone to make sure they’re really where they’re supposed to be, and help keep them safe.

Spy equipment is no longer just for British agents in tuxedos. Of course, if you happen to be British and have a tuxedo, you’re free to wear it, but anyone can now use “spy technology” to protect their homes, families and businesses.
