Description

A pen-sized detector you actually carry beats a briefcase-sized one you leave at home.

The Protect 1205M is 172mm long and 19mm across, covers 50MHz to 6GHz, and runs 10 to 20 hours on a single AA cell, so there is nothing to charge before you use it. A 16 segment bar graph and an attenuator handle the search, and a vibrate mode means a sweep in a hotel corridor or a shared office makes no noise at all.

Features

Wide RF coverage: Scans a wide frequency range so you can search for bugs operating between 50 MHz and 6 GHz in homes, offices or vehicles.
Fast multi type bug detection: Detects a range of RF threats including VHF and UHF transmitters, GSM bugs, wireless video cameras, Wi Fi audio and video transmitters, vehicle transmitters and body carried transmitters.
Adjustable sensitivity and bar graph: A 16 segment bar graph indicator and sensitivity control help you see signal strength, adjust for background noise and move toward the source of a bugging device.
Multiple alert modes: Normal, vibrating and audio modes with low power indication let you choose between regular sweeps and silent vibration when you need discreet feedback.
Portable single battery design: Runs from a single AA battery with battery life rated up to 20 hours, making the detector easy to carry for travel or regular counter surveillance checks.

Applications

Real-World Scenarios

Travel

It is 172mm long, weighs almost nothing and runs on a battery you can buy in any supermarket anywhere in the world.

That is the argument for this one over a larger detector. A sweep of a hotel room takes a few minutes and there is no charger to have forgotten.

A Quiet Check Of A Shared Workspace

A serviced office or a co-working desk is used by people you have never met, and a beeping detector attracts exactly the attention you were avoiding.

Vibration mode gives you the same information silently. Work the desk, the power outlets, the underside of surfaces and the ceiling tiles above the seat.

A Vehicle Or A Bag Between Journeys

Body-worn and vehicle transmitters sit in the same 50MHz to 6GHz range as everything else.

Start with the attenuator off and the bar graph will react across a wide area. Engage it as the reading strengthens so the effective range shortens and the peak sharpens.

How it Works

Fit a fresh AA cell and power on. There is nothing to charge and nothing to pair.
Walk the space watching the 16 segment bar graph. Use the ATT button to attenuate as the reading rises, which shortens the range and sharpens the peak.
Choose normal, audio or vibrating mode depending on whether the sweep needs to be quiet. The three colour battery indicator tells you when the cell is going.

Frequently Asked Questions

What can it detect?

RF transmitters between 50MHz and 6GHz: VHF and UHF bugs, GSM bugs and spy phones, wireless video cameras, WiFi audio and video transmitters, and vehicle and body worn transmitters.

How do I use the bar graph and the attenuator together?

Start with sensitivity high and cover ground. When the bar graph lifts, press ATT to attenuate. That shortens the range so only a closer source keeps the bar up, and you follow the peak in.

Why a AA battery rather than a rechargeable?

Because it runs 10 to 20 hours on one and you can replace it anywhere. For a detector you carry rather than deploy, that is usually the better trade.

Can I sweep without anyone hearing?

Yes. Vibrating mode gives the same indication with no sound.

Will it find a camera that is only recording to a card?

No. It detects radio transmissions, so a device that stores locally and never transmits is invisible to it. For that you need an optical lens finder or a non-linear junction detector.

Am I allowed to sweep a room I am staying in?

Yes. Checking a space you occupy, a hotel room, a rental, your own home, your own car, for devices recording you is your business and nobody else's. Two practical limits worth knowing. If you find something, photograph it in place before you touch it: removing a device destroys the evidence of who put it there. And a detector tells you a signal exists, not who owns it, so treat a hit as a reason to look, not as proof.
